The pid_max sysctl is a global value. For a long time the default value
has been 65535 and during the pidfd dicussions Linus proposed to bump
pid_max by default (cf. [1]). Based on this discussion systemd started
bumping pid_max to 2^22. So all new systems now run with a very high
pid_max limit with some distros having also backported that change.
The decision to bump pid_max is obviously correct. It just doesn't make
a lot of sense nowadays to enforce such a low pid number. There's
sufficient tooling to make selecting specific processes without typing
really large pid numbers available.
In any case, there are workloads that have expections about how large
pid numbers they accept. Either for historical reasons or architectural
reasons. One concreate example is the 32-bit version of Android's bionic
libc which requires pid numbers less than 65536. There are workloads
where it is run in a 32-bit container on a 64-bit kernel. If the host
has a pid_max value greater than 65535 the libc will abort thread
creation because of size assumptions of pthread_mutex_t.
That's a fairly specific use-case however, in general specific workloads
that are moved into containers running on a host with a new kernel and a
new systemd can run into issues with large pid_max values. Obviously
making assumptions about the size of the allocated pid is suboptimal but
we have userspace that does it.
Of course, giving containers the ability to restrict the number of
processes in their respective pid namespace indepent of the global limit
through pid_max is something desirable in itself and comes in handy in
general.
Independent of motivating use-cases the existence of pid namespaces
makes this also a good semantical extension and there have been prior
proposals pushing in a similar direction.
The trick here is to minimize the risk of regressions which I think is
doable. The fact that pid namespaces are hierarchical will help us here.
What we mostly care about is that when the host sets a low pid_max
limit, say (crazy number) 100 that no descendant pid namespace can
allocate a higher pid number in its namespace. Since pid allocation is
hierarchial this can be ensured by checking each pid allocation against
the pid namespace's pid_max limit. This means if the allocation in the
descendant pid namespace succeeds, the ancestor pid namespace can reject
it. If the ancestor pid namespace has a higher limit than the descendant
pid namespace the descendant pid namespace will reject the pid
allocation. The ancestor pid namespace will obviously not care about
this.
All in all this means pid_max continues to enforce a system wide limit
on the number of processes but allows pid namespaces sufficient leeway
in handling workloads with assumptions about pid values and allows
containers to restrict the number of processes in a pid namespace
through the pid_max interface.

- rebased from 5.14-rc1
- a few fixes (missing ns_free_inum on error path, missing initialization, etc)
- permission check changes in pid_table_root_permissions
- unsigned int pid_max -> int pid_max (keep pid_max type as it was)
- add READ_ONCE in alloc_pid() as suggested by Christian
- rebased from 6.7 and take into account:
* sysctl: treewide: drop unused argument ctl_table_root::set_ownership(table)
* sysctl: treewide: constify ctl_table_header::ctl_table_arg
* pidfd: add pidfs
* tracing: Move saved_cmdline code into trace_sched_switch.c

A sigqueue belonging to a posix timer, which target is not a specific
thread but a whole thread group, is preferrably targeted to the current
task if it is part of that thread group.
However nothing prevents a posix timer event from queueing such a
sigqueue from a reaped yet running task. The interruptible code space
between exit_notify() and the final call to schedule() is enough for
posix_timer_fn() hrtimer to fire.
If that happens while the current task is part of the thread group
target, it is proposed to handle it but since its sighand pointer may
have been cleared already, the sigqueue is dropped even if there are
other tasks running within the group that could handle it.
As a result posix timers with thread group wide target may miss signals
when some of their threads are exiting.
Fix this with verifying that the current task hasn't been through
exit_notify() before proposing it as a preferred target so as to ensure
that its sighand is still here and stable.
complete_signal() might still reconsider the choice and find a better
target within the group if current has passed retarget_shared_pending()
already.

Pull more tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Add trace flag for NEED_RESCHED_LAZY
Now that NEED_RESCHED_LAZY is upstream, add it to the status bits of
the common_flags. This will now show when the NEED_RESCHED_LAZY flag
is set that is used for debugging latency issues in the kernel via a
trace.
- Remove leftover "__idx" variable when SRCU was removed from the
tracepoint code
- Add rcu_tasks_trace guard
To add a guard() around the tracepoint code, a rcu_tasks_trace guard
needs to be created first.
- Remove __DO_TRACE() macro and just call __DO_TRACE_CALL() directly
The DO_TRACE() macro has conditional locking depending on what was
passed into the macro parameters. As the guts of the macro has been
moved to __DO_TRACE_CALL() to handle static call logic, there's no
reason to keep the __DO_TRACE() macro around.
It is better to just do the locking in place without the conditionals
and call __DO_TRACE_CALL() from those locations. The "cond" passed in
can also be moved out of that macro. This simplifies the code.
- Remove the "cond" from the system call tracepoint macros
The "cond" variable was added to allow some tracepoints to check a
condition within the static_branch (jump/nop) logic. The system calls
do not need this. Removing it simplifies the code.
- Replace scoped_guard() with just guard() in the tracepoint logic
guard() works just as well as scoped_guard() in the tracepoint logic
and the scoped_guard() causes some issues.

Due to an unsigned cast, adjtimex() returns the wrong offest when using
ADJ_MICRO and the offset is negative. In this case a small negative offset
returns approximately 4.29 seconds (~ 2^32/1000 milliseconds) due to the
unsigned cast of the negative offset.
This cast was added when the kernel internal struct timex was changed to
use type long long for the time offset value to address the problem of a
64bit/32bit division on 32bit systems.
The correct cast would have been (s32), which is correct as time_offset can
only be in the range of [INT_MIN..INT_MAX] because the shift constant used
for calculating it is 32. But that's non-obvious.
Remove the cast and use div_s64() to cure the issue.

- Matthew Maurer and Sami Tolvanen have been tag teaming to help get us
closer to a modversions for Rust. In this cycle we take in quite a
lot of the refactoring for ELF validation. I expect modversions for
Rust will be merged by v6.14 as that code is mostly ready now.
- Adds a new modules selftests: kallsyms which helps us tests
find_symbol() and the limits of kallsyms on Linux today.
- We have a realtime mailing list to kernel-ci testing for modules now
which relies and combines patchwork, kpd and kdevops:

Jordy reported issue against XSKMAP which also applies to DEVMAP - the
index used for accessing map entry, due to being a signed integer,
causes the OOB writes. Fix is simple as changing the type from int to
u32, however, when compared to XSKMAP case, one more thing needs to be
addressed.
When map is released from system via dev_map_free(), we iterate through
all of the entries and an iterator variable is also an int, which
implies OOB accesses. Again, change it to be u32.

Josh Poimboeuf reports that he got a "will-it-scale.per_process_ops 1.9%
improvement" report for his patch that changed __get_user() to use
pointer masking instead of the explicit speculation barrier. However,
that patch doesn't actually work in the general case, because some (very
bad) architecture-specific code actually depends on __get_user() also
working on kernel addresses.
A profile showed that the offending __get_user() was the futex code,
which really should be fixed up to not use that horrid legacy case.
Rewrite futex_get_value_locked() to use the modern user acccess helpers,
and inline it so that the compiler not only avoids the function call for
a few instructions, but can do CSE on the address masking.
It also turns out the x86 futex functions have unnecessary barriers in
other places, so let's fix those up too.

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"The biggest change here is eliminating the awful idea that KVM had of
essentially guessing which pfns are refcounted pages.
The reason to do so was that KVM needs to map both non-refcounted
pages (for example BARs of VFIO devices) and VM_PFNMAP/VM_MIXMEDMAP
VMAs that contain refcounted pages.
However, the result was security issues in the past, and more recently
the inability to map VM_IO and VM_PFNMAP memory that _is_ backed by
struct page but is not refcounted. In particular this broke virtio-gpu
blob resources (which directly map host graphics buffers into the
guest as "vram" for the virtio-gpu device) with the amdgpu driver,
because amdgpu allocates non-compound higher order pages and the tail
pages could not be mapped into KVM.
This requires adjusting all uses of struct page in the
per-architecture code, to always work on the pfn whenever possible.
The large series that did this, from David Stevens and Sean
Christopherson, also cleaned up substantially the set of functions
that provided arch code with the pfn for a host virtual addresses.
The previous maze of twisty little passages, all different, is
replaced by five functions (__gfn_to_page, __kvm_faultin_pfn, the
non-__ versions of these two, and kvm_prefetch_pages) saving almost
200 lines of code.
ARM:
- Support for stage-1 permission indirection (FEAT_S1PIE) and
permission overlays (FEAT_S1POE), including nested virt + the
emulated page table walker
- Introduce PSCI SYSTEM_OFF2 support to KVM + client driver. This
call was introduced in PSCIv1.3 as a mechanism to request
hibernation, similar to the S4 state in ACPI
- Explicitly trap + hide FEAT_MPAM (QoS controls) from KVM guests. As
part of it, introduce trivial initialization of the host's MPAM
context so KVM can use the corresponding traps
- PMU support under nested virtualization, honoring the guest
hypervisor's trap configuration and event filtering when running a
nested guest
- Fixes to vgic ITS serialization where stale device/interrupt table
entries are not zeroed when the mapping is invalidated by the VM
- Avoid emulated MMIO completion if userspace has requested
synchronous external abort injection
- Various fixes and cleanups affecting pKVM, vCPU initialization, and
selftests
LoongArch:
- Add iocsr and mmio bus simulation in kernel.
- Add in-kernel interrupt controller emulation.
- Add support for virtualization extensions to the eiointc irqchip.
PPC:
- Drop lingering and utterly obsolete references to PPC970 KVM, which
was removed 10 years ago.
- Fix incorrect documentation references to non-existing ioctls
RISC-V:
- Accelerate KVM RISC-V when running as a guest
- Perf support to collect KVM guest statistics from host side
s390:
- New selftests: more ucontrol selftests and CPU model sanity checks
- Support for the gen17 CPU model
- List registers supported by KVM_GET/SET_ONE_REG in the
documentation
x86:
- Cleanup KVM's handling of Accessed and Dirty bits to dedup code,
improve documentation, harden against unexpected changes.
Even if the hardware A/D tracking is disabled, it is possible to
use the hardware-defined A/D bits to track if a PFN is Accessed
and/or Dirty, and that removes a lot of special cases.
- Elide TLB flushes when aging secondary PTEs, as has been done in
x86's primary MMU for over 10 years.
- Recover huge pages in-place in the TDP MMU when dirty page logging
is toggled off, instead of zapping them and waiting until the page
is re-accessed to create a huge mapping. This reduces vCPU jitter.
- Batch TLB flushes when dirty page logging is toggled off. This
reduces the time it takes to disable dirty logging by ~3x.
- Remove the shrinker that was (poorly) attempting to reclaim shadow
page tables in low-memory situations.
- Clean up and optimize KVM's handling of writes to
MSR_IA32_APICBASE.
- Advertise CPUIDs for new instructions in Clearwater Forest
- Quirk KVM's misguided behavior of initialized certain feature MSRs
to their maximum supported feature set, which can result in KVM
creating invalid vCPU state. E.g. initializing PERF_CAPABILITIES to
a non-zero value results in the vCPU having invalid state if
userspace hides PDCM from the guest, which in turn can lead to
save/restore failures.
- Fix KVM's handling of non-canonical checks for vCPUs that support
LA57 to better follow the "architecture", in quotes because the
actual behavior is poorly documented. E.g. most MSR writes and
descriptor table loads ignore CR4.LA57 and operate purely on
whether the CPU supports LA57.
- Bypass the register cache when querying CPL from kvm_sched_out(),
as filling the cache from IRQ context is generally unsafe; harden
the cache accessors to try to prevent similar issues from occuring
in the future. The issue that triggered this change was already
fixed in 6.12, but was still kinda latent.
- Advertise AMD_IBPB_RET to userspace, and fix a related bug where
KVM over-advertises SPEC_CTRL when trying to support cross-vendor
VMs.
- Minor cleanups
- Switch hugepage recovery thread to use vhost_task.
These kthreads can consume significant amounts of CPU time on
behalf of a VM or in response to how the VM behaves (for example
how it accesses its memory); therefore KVM tried to place the
thread in the VM's cgroups and charge the CPU time consumed by that
work to the VM's container.
However the kthreads did not process SIGSTOP/SIGCONT, and therefore
cgroups which had KVM instances inside could not complete freezing.
Fix this by replacing the kthread with a PF_USER_WORKER thread, via
the vhost_task abstraction. Another 100+ lines removed, with
generally better behavior too like having these threads properly
parented in the process tree.
- Revert a workaround for an old CPU erratum (Nehalem/Westmere) that
didn't really work; there was really nothing to work around anyway:
the broken patch was meant to fix nested virtualization, but the
PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL MSR is virtualized and therefore unaffected by the
erratum.
- Fix 6.12 regression where CONFIG_KVM will be built as a module even
if asked to be builtin, as long as neither KVM_INTEL nor KVM_AMD is
'y'.
x86 selftests:
- x86 selftests can now use AVX.
Documentation:
- Use rST internal links
- Reorganize the introduction to the API document
Generic:
- Protect vcpu->pid accesses outside of vcpu->mutex with a rwlock
instead of RCU, so that running a vCPU on a different task doesn't
encounter long due to having to wait for all CPUs become quiescent.
In general both reads and writes are rare, but userspace that
supports confidential computing is introducing the use of "helper"
vCPUs that may jump from one host processor to another. Those will
be very happy to trigger a synchronize_rcu(), and the effect on
performance is quite the disaster"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Addition of faultable tracepoints
There's a tracepoint attached to both a system call entry and exit.
This location is known to allow page faults. The tracepoints are
called under an rcu_read_lock() which does not allow faults that can
sleep. This limits the ability of tracepoint handlers to page fault
in user space system call parameters. Now these tracepoints have been
made "faultable", allowing the callbacks to fault in user space
parameters and record them.
Note, only the infrastructure has been implemented. The consumers
(perf, ftrace, BPF) now need to have their code modified to allow
faults.
- Fix up of BPF code for the tracepoint faultable logic
- Update tracepoints to use the new static branch API
- Remove trace_*_rcuidle() variants and the SRCU protection they used
- Remove unused TRACE_EVENT_FL_FILTERED logic
- Replace strncpy() with strscpy() and memcpy()
- Use replace per_cpu_ptr(smp_processor_id()) with this_cpu_ptr()
- Fix perf events to not duplicate samples when tracing is enabled
- Replace atomic64_add_return(1, counter) with
atomic64_inc_return(counter)
- Make stack trace buffer 4K instead of PAGE_SIZE
- Remove TRACE_FLAG_IRQS_NOSUPPORT flag as it was never used
- Get the true return address for function tracer when function graph
tracer is also running.
When function_graph trace is running along with function tracer, the
parent function of the function tracer sometimes is
"return_to_handler", which is the function graph trampoline to record
the exit of the function. Use existing logic that calls into the
fgraph infrastructure to find the real return address.
- Remove (un)regfunc pointers out of tracepoint structure
- Added last minute bug fix for setting pending modules in stack
function filter.
echo "write*:mod:ext3" > /sys/kernel/tracing/stack_trace_filter
Would cause a kernel NULL dereference.

Pull trace ring-buffer updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Limit time interrupts are disabled in rb_check_pages()
rb_check_pages() is called after the ring buffer size is updated to
make sure that the ring buffer has not been corrupted. Commit
c2274b908db0 ("ring-buffer: Fix a race between readers and resize
checks") fixed a race with the check pages and simultaneous resizes
to the ring buffer by adding a raw_spin_lock_irqsave() around the
check operation. Although this was a simple fix, it would hold
interrupts disabled for non determinative amount of time. This could
harm PREEMPT_RT operations.
Instead, modify the logic by adding a counter when the buffer is
modified and to release the raw_spin_lock() at each iteration. It
checks the counter under the lock to see if a modification happened
during the loop, and if it did, it would restart the loop up to 3
times. After 3 times, it will simply exit the check, as it is
unlikely that would ever happen as buffer resizes are rare
occurrences.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"The most significant set of changes is the per netns RTNL. The new
behavior is disabled by default, regression risk should be contained.
Notably the new config knob PTP_1588_CLOCK_VMCLOCK will inherit its
default value from PTP_1588_CLOCK_KVM, as the first is intended to be
a more reliable replacement for the latter.
Core:
- Started a very large, in-progress, effort to make the RTNL lock
scope per network-namespace, thus reducing the lock contention
significantly in the containerized use-case, comprising:
- RCU-ified some relevant slices of the FIB control path
- introduce basic per netns locking helpers
- namespacified the IPv4 address hash table
- remove rtnl_register{,_module}() in favour of
rtnl_register_many()
- refactor rtnl_{new,del,set}link() moving as much validation as
possible out of RTNL lock
- convert all phonet doit() and dumpit() handlers to RCU
- convert IPv4 addresses manipulation to per-netns RTNL
- convert virtual interface creation to per-netns RTNL
the per-netns lock infrastructure is guarded by the
CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL knob, disabled by default ad interim.
- Introduce NAPI suspension, to efficiently switching between busy
polling (NAPI processing suspended) and normal processing.
- Migrate the IPv4 routing input, output and control path from direct
ToS usage to DSCP macros. This is a work in progress to make ECN
handling consistent and reliable.
- Add drop reasons support to the IPv4 rotue input path, allowing
better introspection in case of packets drop.
- Make FIB seqnum lockless, dropping RTNL protection for read access.
- Make inet{,v6} addresses hashing less predicable.
- Allow providing timestamp OPT_ID via cmsg, to correlate TX packets
and timestamps
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- Add small file operations for debugfs, to reduce the struct ops
size.
- Refactoring and optimization for the implementation of page_frag
API, This is a preparatory work to consolidate the page_frag
implementation.
Netfilter:
- Optimize set element transactions to reduce memory consumption
- Extended netlink error reporting for attribute parser failure.
- Make legacy xtables configs user selectable, giving users the
option to configure iptables without enabling any other config.
- Address a lot of false-positive RCU issues, pointed by recent CI
improvements.
BPF:
- Put xsk sockets on a struct diet and add various cleanups. Overall,
this helps to bump performance by 12% for some workloads.
- Extend BPF selftests to increase coverage of XDP features in
combination with BPF cpumap.
- Optimize and homogenize bpf_csum_diff helper for all archs and also
add a batch of new BPF selftests for it.
- Extend netkit with an option to delegate skb->{mark,priority}
scrubbing to its BPF program.
- Make the bpf_get_netns_cookie() helper available also to tc(x) BPF
programs.
Protocols:
- Introduces 4-tuple hash for connected udp sockets, speeding-up
significantly connected sockets lookup.
- Add a fastpath for some TCP timers that usually expires after
close, the socket lock contention.
- Add inbound and outbound xfrm state caches to speed up state
lookups.
- Avoid sending MPTCP advertisements on stale subflows, reducing
risks on loosing them.
- Make neighbours table flushing more scalable, maintaining per
device neigh lists.
Driver API:
- Introduce a unified interface to configure transmission H/W
shaping, and expose it to user-space via generic-netlink.
- Add support for per-NAPI config via netlink. This makes napi
configuration persistent across queues removal and re-creation.
Requires driver updates, currently supported drivers are:
nVidia/Mellanox mlx4 and mlx5, Broadcom brcm and Intel ice.
- Add ethtool support for writing SFP / PHY firmware blocks.
- Track RSS context allocation from ethtool core.
- Implement support for mirroring to DSA CPU port, via TC mirror
offload.
- Consolidate FDB updates notification, to avoid duplicates on
device-specific entries.
- Expose DPLL clock quality level to the user-space.
- Support master-slave PHY config via device tree.
Tests and tooling:
- forwarding: introduce deferred commands, to simplify the cleanup
phase
Drivers:
- Updated several drivers - Amazon vNic, Google vNic, Microsoft vNic,
Intel e1000e and Broadcom Tigon3 - to use netdev-genl to link the
IRQs and queues to NAPI IDs, allowing busy polling and better
introspection.

Pull ftrace updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Restructure the function graph shadow stack to prepare it for use
with kretprobes
With the goal of merging the shadow stack logic of function graph and
kretprobes, some more restructuring of the function shadow stack is
required.
Move out function graph specific fields from the fgraph
infrastructure and store it on the new stack variables that can pass
data from the entry callback to the exit callback.
Hopefully, with this change, the merge of kretprobes to use fgraph
shadow stacks will be ready by the next merge window.
- Make shadow stack 4k instead of using PAGE_SIZE.
Some architectures have very large PAGE_SIZE values which make its
use for shadow stacks waste a lot of memory.
- Give shadow stacks its own kmem cache.
When function graph is started, every task on the system gets a
shadow stack. In the future, shadow stacks may not be 4K in size.
Have it have its own kmem cache so that whatever size it becomes will
still be efficient in allocations.
- Initialize profiler graph ops as it will be needed for new updates to
fgraph
- Convert to use guard(mutex) for several ftrace and fgraph functions
- Add more comments and documentation
- Show function return address in function graph tracer
Add an option to show the caller of a function at each entry of the
function graph tracer, similar to what the function tracer does.
- Abstract out ftrace_regs from being used directly like pt_regs
ftrace_regs was created to store a partial pt_regs. It holds only the
registers and stack information to get to the function arguments and
return values. On several archs, it is simply a wrapper around
pt_regs. But some users would access ftrace_regs directly to get the
pt_regs which will not work on all archs. Make ftrace_regs an
abstract structure that requires all access to its fields be through
accessor functions.
- Show how long it takes to do function code modifications
When code modification for function hooks happen, it always had the
time recorded in how long it took to do the conversion. But this
value was never exported. Recently the code was touched due to new
ROX modification handling that caused a large slow down in doing the
modifications and had a significant impact on boot times.
Expose the timings in the dyn_ftrace_total_info file. This file was
created a while ago to show information about memory usage and such
to implement dynamic function tracing. It's also an appropriate file
to store the timings of this modification as well. This will make it
easier to see the impact of changes to code modification on boot up
timings.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/sched_ext
Pull sched_ext updates from Tejun Heo:
- Improve the default select_cpu() implementation making it topology
aware and handle WAKE_SYNC better.
- set_arg_maybe_null() was used to inform the verifier which ops args
could be NULL in a rather hackish way. Use the new __nullable CFI
stub tags instead.
- On Sapphire Rapids multi-socket systems, a BPF scheduler, by
hammering on the same queue across sockets, could live-lock the
system to the point where the system couldn't make reasonable forward
progress.
This could lead to soft-lockup triggered resets or stalling out
bypass mode switch and thus BPF scheduler ejection for tens of
minutes if not hours. After trying a number of mitigations, the
following set worked reliably:
- Injecting artificial cpu_relax() loops in two places while
sched_ext is trying to turn on the bypass mode.
- Triggering scheduler ejection when soft-lockup detection is
imminent (a quarter of threshold left).
While not the prettiest, the impact both in terms of code complexity
and overhead is minimal.
- A common complaint on the API is the overuse of the word "dispatch"
and the confusion around "consume". This is due to how the dispatch
queues became more generic over time. Rename the affected kfuncs for
clarity. Thanks to BPF's compatibility features, this change can be
made in a way that's both forward and backward compatible. The
compatibility code will be dropped in a few releases.

Pull workqueue updates from Tejun Heo:
- The maximum concurrency limit of 512 which was set a long time ago is
too low now.
A legitimate use (BPF cgroup release) of system_wq could saturate it
under stress test conditions leading to false dependencies and
deadlocks.
While the offending use was switched to a dedicated workqueue, use
the opportunity to bump WQ_MAX_ACTIVE four fold and document that
system workqueue shouldn't be saturated. Workqueue should add at
least a warning mechanism for cases where system workqueues are
saturated.
- Recent workqueue updates to support more flexible execution topology
made unbound workqueues use per-cpu worker pool frontends which
pushed up workqueue flush overhead.
As consecutive CPUs are likely to be pointing to the same worker
pool, reduce overhead by switching locks only when necessary.

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A rather large update for timekeeping and timers:
- The final step to get rid of auto-rearming posix-timers
posix-timers are currently auto-rearmed by the kernel when the
signal of the timer is ignored so that the timer signal can be
delivered once the corresponding signal is unignored.
This requires to throttle the timer to prevent a DoS by small
intervals and keeps the system pointlessly out of low power states
for no value. This is a long standing non-trivial problem due to
the lock order of posix-timer lock and the sighand lock along with
life time issues as the timer and the sigqueue have different life
time rules.
Cure this by:
- Embedding the sigqueue into the timer struct to have the same
life time rules. Aside of that this also avoids the lookup of
the timer in the signal delivery and rearm path as it's just a
always valid container_of() now.
- Queuing ignored timer signals onto a seperate ignored list.
- Moving queued timer signals onto the ignored list when the
signal is switched to SIG_IGN before it could be delivered.
- Walking the ignored list when SIG_IGN is lifted and requeue the
signals to the actual signal lists. This allows the signal
delivery code to rearm the timer.
This also required to consolidate the signal delivery rules so they
are consistent across all situations. With that all self test
scenarios finally succeed.
- Core infrastructure for VFS multigrain timestamping
This is required to allow the kernel to use coarse grained time
stamps by default and switch to fine grained time stamps when inode
attributes are actively observed via getattr().
These changes have been provided to the VFS tree as well, so that
the VFS specific infrastructure could be built on top.
- Cleanup and consolidation of the sleep() infrastructure
- Move all sleep and timeout functions into one file
- Rework udelay() and ndelay() into proper documented inline
functions and replace the hardcoded magic numbers by proper
defines.
- Rework the fsleep() implementation to take the reality of the
timer wheel granularity on different HZ values into account.
Right now the boundaries are hard coded time ranges which fail
to provide the requested accuracy on different HZ settings.
- Update documentation for all sleep/timeout related functions
and fix up stale documentation links all over the place
- Fixup a few usage sites
- Rework of timekeeping and adjtimex(2) to prepare for multiple PTP
clocks
A system can have multiple PTP clocks which are participating in
seperate and independent PTP clock domains. So far the kernel only
considers the PTP clock which is based on CLOCK TAI relevant as
that's the clock which drives the timekeeping adjustments via the
various user space daemons through adjtimex(2).
The non TAI based clock domains are accessible via the file
descriptor based posix clocks, but their usability is very limited.
They can't be accessed fast as they always go all the way out to
the hardware and they cannot be utilized in the kernel itself.
As Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) gains traction it is required to
provide fast user and kernel space access to these clocks.
The approach taken is to utilize the timekeeping and adjtimex(2)
infrastructure to provide this access in a similar way how the
kernel provides access to clock MONOTONIC, REALTIME etc.
Instead of creating a duplicated infrastructure this rework
converts timekeeping and adjtimex(2) into generic functionality
which operates on pointers to data structures instead of using
static variables.
This allows to provide time accessors and adjtimex(2) functionality
for the independent PTP clocks in a subsequent step.
- Consolidate hrtimer initialization
hrtimers are set up by initializing the data structure and then
seperately setting the callback function for historical reasons.
That's an extra unnecessary step and makes Rust support less
straight forward than it should be.
Provide a new set of hrtimer_setup*() functions and convert the
core code and a few usage sites of the less frequently used
interfaces over.
The bulk of the htimer_init() to hrtimer_setup() conversion is
already prepared and scheduled for the next merge window.
- Drivers:
- Ensure that the global timekeeping clocksource is utilizing the
cluster 0 timer on MIPS multi-cluster systems.
Otherwise CPUs on different clusters use their cluster specific
clocksource which is not guaranteed to be synchronized with
other clusters.
- Mostly boring cleanups, fixes, improvements and code movement"

Pull vdso data page handling updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"First steps of consolidating the VDSO data page handling.
The VDSO data page handling is architecture specific for historical
reasons, but there is no real technical reason to do so.
Aside of that VDSO data has become a dump ground for various
mechanisms and fail to provide a clear separation of the
functionalities.
Clean this up by:
- consolidating the VDSO page data by getting rid of architecture
specific warts especially in x86 and PowerPC.
- removing the last includes of header files which are pulling in
other headers outside of the VDSO namespace.
- seperating timekeeping and other VDSO data accordingly.
Further consolidation of the VDSO page handling is done in subsequent
changes scheduled for the next merge window.
This also lays the ground for expanding the VDSO time getters for
independent PTP clocks in a generic way without making every
architecture add support seperately"

Pull interrupt subsystem updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Tree wide:
- Make nr_irqs static to the core code and provide accessor functions
to remove existing and prevent future aliasing problems with local
variables or function arguments of the same name.
Core code:
- Prevent freeing an interrupt in the devres code which is not
managed by devres in the first place.
- Use seq_put_decimal_ull_width() for decimal values output in
/proc/interrupts which increases performance significantly as it
avoids parsing the format strings over and over.
- Optimize raising the timer and hrtimer soft interrupts by using the
'set bit only' variants instead of the combined version which
checks whether ksoftirqd should be woken up. The latter is a
pointless exercise as both soft interrupts are raised in the
context of the timer interrupt and therefore never wake up
ksoftirqd.
- Delegate timer/hrtimer soft interrupt processing to a dedicated
thread on RT.
Timer and hrtimer soft interrupts are always processed in ksoftirqd
on RT enabled kernels. This can lead to high latencies when other
soft interrupts are delegated to ksoftirqd as well.
The separate thread allows to run them seperately under a RT
scheduling policy to reduce the latency overhead.
Drivers:
- New drivers or extensions of existing drivers to support Renesas
RZ/V2H(P), Aspeed AST27XX, T-HEAD C900 and ATMEL sam9x7 interrupt
chips
- Support for multi-cluster GICs on MIPS.
MIPS CPUs can come with multiple CPU clusters, where each CPU
cluster has its own GIC (Generic Interrupt Controller). This
requires to access the GIC of a remote cluster through a redirect
register block.
This is encapsulated into a set of helper functions to keep the
complexity out of the actual code paths which handle the GIC
details.
- Support for encrypted guests in the ARM GICV3 ITS driver
The ITS page needs to be shared with the hypervisor and therefore
must be decrypted.
- Small cleanups and fixes all over the place"

Pull RCU updates from Frederic Weisbecker:
"SRCU:
- Introduction of the new SRCU-lite flavour with a new pair of
srcu_read_[un]lock_lite() APIs. In practice the read side using
this flavour becomes lighter by removing a full memory barrier on
LOCK and a full memory barrier on UNLOCK. This comes at the expense
of a higher latency write side with two (in the best case of a
snaphot of unused read-sides) or more RCU grace periods on the
update side which now assumes by itself the whole full ordering
guarantee against the LOCK/UNLOCK counters on both indexes, along
with the accesses performed inside.
Uretprobes is a known potential user.
Note this doesn't replace the default normal flavour of SRCU which
still behaves the same as usual.
- Add testing of SRCU-lite through rcutorture and rcuscale
- Various cleanups on the way.
Fixes:
- Allow short-circuiting RCU-TASKS-RUDE grace periods on
architectures that have sane noinstr boundaries forbidding tracing
on low-level idle and kernel entry code. RCU-TASKS is enough on
such configurations because it involves an RCU grace period that
waits for all idle tasks to either schedule out voluntarily or
enter into RCU unwatched noinstr code.
- Allow and test start_poll_synchronize_rcu() with IRQs disabled.
- Mention rcuog kthreads in relevant documentation and Kconfig help
- Various fixes and consolidations
rcutorture:
- Add --no-affinity on tools to leave the affinity setting of guests
up to the user.
- Add guest_os_delay parameter to rcuscale for better warm-up
control.
- Fix and improve some rcuscale error handling.
- Various cleanups and fixes

- Remove dead code
- Stop dumping tasks if a stalled grace period eventually ended
midway as that only produces confusing output.

otherwise.
