this has been brought into a shape which is maintainable and actually
works.
This final version was done by Sasha Levin who took it up after Intel
dropped the ball. Sasha discovered that the SGX (sic!) offerings out there
ship rogue kernel modules enabling FSGSBASE behind the kernels back which
opens an instantanious unpriviledged root hole.
The FSGSBASE instructions provide a considerable speedup of the context
switch path and enable user space to write GSBASE without kernel
interaction. This enablement requires careful handling of the exception
entries which go through the paranoid entry path as they cannot longer rely
on the assumption that user GSBASE is positive (as enforced via prctl() on
non FSGSBASE enabled systemn). All other entries (syscalls, interrupts and
exceptions) can still just utilize SWAPGS unconditionally when the entry
comes from user space. Converting these entries to use FSGSBASE has no
benefit as SWAPGS is only marginally slower than WRGSBASE and locating and
retrieving the kernel GSBASE value is not a free operation either. The real
benefit of RD/WRGSBASE is the avoidance of the MSR reads and writes.
The changes come with appropriate selftests and have held up in field
testing against the (sanitized) Graphene-SGX driver.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The most significant change here is the extension of the Energy Model
to cover non-CPU devices (as well as CPUs) from Lukasz Luba.
There is also some new hardware support (Ice Lake server idle states
table for intel_idle, Sapphire Rapids and Power Limit 4 support in the
RAPL driver), some new functionality in the existing drivers (eg. a
new switch to disable/enable CPU energy-efficiency optimizations in
intel_pstate, delayed timers in devfreq), some assorted fixes (cpufreq
core, intel_pstate, intel_idle) and cleanups (eg. cpuidle-psci,
devfreq), including the elimination of W=1 build warnings from cpufreq
done by Lee Jones.
Specifics:
- Make the Energy Model cover non-CPU devices (Lukasz Luba).

This release, we add support for inline encryption via the blk-crypto
framework which was added in 5.8. Now when an ext4 or f2fs filesystem
is mounted with '-o inlinecrypt', the contents of encrypted files will
be encrypted/decrypted via blk-crypto, instead of directly using the
crypto API. This model allows taking advantage of the inline encryption
hardware that is integrated into the UFS or eMMC host controllers on
most mobile SoCs. Note that this is just an alternate implementation;
the ciphertext written to disk stays the same.
(This pull request does *not* include support for direct I/O on
encrypted files, which blk-crypto makes possible, since that part is
still being discussed.)
Besides the above feature update, there are also a few fixes and
cleanups, e.g. strengthening some memory barriers that may be too weak.
All these patches have been in linux-next with no reported issues. I've
also tested them with the fscrypt xfstests, as usual. It's also been
tested that the inline encryption support works with the support for
Qualcomm and Mediatek inline encryption hardware that will be in the
scsi pull request for 5.9. Also, several SoC vendors are already using
a previous, functionally equivalent version of these patches.

This adds a kernel command line option that can be used to disable GTSE support.
Disabling GTSE implies kernel will make hcalls to invalidate TLB entries.
This was done so that we can do VM migration between configs that enable/disable
GTSE support via hypervisor. To migrate a VM from a system that supports
GTSE to a system that doesn't, we can boot the guest with
radix_hcall_invalidate=on, thereby forcing the guest to use hcalls for TLB
invalidates.
The check for hcall availability is done in pSeries_setup_arch so that
the panic message appears on the console. This should only happen on
a hypervisor that doesn't force the guest to hash translation even
though it can't handle the radix GTSE=0 request via CAS. With
radix_hcall_invalidate=on if the hypervisor doesn't support hcall_rpt_invalidate
hcall it should force the LPAR to hash translation.

Regarding:
commit 2b6783191d ("dynamic_debug: add trim_prefix() to provide source-root relative paths")
commit a73619a845 ("kbuild: use -fmacro-prefix-map to make __FILE__ a relative path")
2nd commit broke dynamic-debug's "file $fullpath" query form, but
nobody noticed because 1st commit had trimmed prefixes from
control-file output, so the click-copy-pasting of fullpaths into new
queries had ceased; that query form became unused.
Removing the function is cleanest, but it could be useful in
old-compiler corner cases, where __FILE__ still has /full/path,
and it safely does nothing otherwize.
So instead, quietly deprecate "file /full/path" query form, by
removing all /full/paths examples in the docs. I skipped adding a
back-compat note.

Since debugfs include sensitive information it need to be treated
carefully. But it also has many very useful debug functions for userspace.
With this option we can have same configuration for system with
need of debugfs and a way to turn it off. This gives a extra protection
for exposure on systems where user-space services with system
access are attacked.
It is controlled by a configurable default value that can be override
with a kernel command line parameter. (debugfs=)
It can be on or off, but also internally on but not seen from user-space.
This no-mount mode do not register a debugfs as filesystem, but client can
register their parts in the internal structures. This data can be readed
with a debugger or saved with a crashkernel. When it is off clients
get EPERM error when accessing the functions for registering their
components.

In order to improve consistency and usability in cgroup stat accounting,
we would like to support the root cgroup's io.stat.
Since the root cgroup has processes doing io even if the system has no
explicitly created cgroups, we need to be careful to avoid overhead in
that case. For that reason, the rstat algorithms don't handle the root
cgroup, so just turning the file on wouldn't give correct statistics.
To get around this, we simulate flushing the iostat struct by filling it
out directly from global disk stats. The result is a root cgroup io.stat
file consistent with both /proc/diskstats and io.stat.
Note that in order to collect the disk stats, we needed to iterate over
devices. To facilitate that, we had to change the linkage of a disk_type
to external so that it can be used from blk-cgroup.c to iterate over
disks.

Note: submit_bh_wbc() in fs/buffer.c also needed to be patched for

TCR_EL1.TxSZ, which controls the VA space size, is configured by a
single kernel image to support either 48-bit or 52-bit VA space.
If the ARMv8.2-LVA optional feature is present and we are running
with a 64KB page size, then it is possible to use 52-bits of address
space for both userspace and kernel addresses. However, any kernel
binary that supports 52-bit must also be able to fall back to 48-bit
at early boot time if the hardware feature is not present.
Since TCR_EL1.T1SZ indicates the size of the memory region addressed by
TTBR1_EL1, export the same in vmcoreinfo. User-space utilities like
makedumpfile and crash-utility need to read this value from vmcoreinfo
for determining if a virtual address lies in the linear map range.
While at it also add documentation for TCR_EL1.T1SZ variable being

Right now user-space tools like 'makedumpfile' and 'crash' need to rely
on a best-guess method of determining value of 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS'
supported by underlying kernel.
This value is used in user-space code to calculate the bit-space
required to store a section for SPARESMEM (similar to the existing
calculation method used in the kernel implementation):
#define SECTIONS_SHIFT (MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS - SECTION_SIZE_BITS)
Now, regressions have been reported in user-space utilities
like 'makedumpfile' and 'crash' on arm64, with the recently added
kernel support for 52-bit physical address space, as there is
no clear method of determining this value in user-space
(other than reading kernel CONFIG flags).
As per suggestion from makedumpfile maintainer (Kazu), it makes more
sense to append 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' to vmcoreinfo in the core code itself
rather than in arch-specific code, so that the user-space code for other
archs can also benefit from this addition to the vmcoreinfo and use it
as a standard way of determining 'SECTIONS_SHIFT' value in user-land.
A reference 'makedumpfile' implementation which reads the
'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' value from vmcoreinfo in a arch-independent fashion
is available here:
While at it also update vmcoreinfo documentation for 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS'
variable being added to vmcoreinfo.
'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' defines the maximum supported physical address
space memory.

Currently, the only way to specify the default CPUfreq governor is
via Kconfig options, which suits users who can build the kernel
themselves perfectly.
However, for those who use a distro-like kernel (such as Android,
with the Generic Kernel Image project), the only way to use a
non-default governor is to boot to userspace, and to then switch
using the sysfs interface. Being able to specify the default governor
on the command line, like is the case for cpuidle, would allow those
users to specify their governor of choice earlier on, and to simplify
the userspace boot procedure slighlty.
To support this use-case, add a kernel command line parameter
allowing the default governor for CPUfreq to be specified, which
takes precedence over the built-in default.
This implementation has one notable limitation: the default governor
must be registered before the driver. This is solved for builtin
governors and drivers using appropriate *_initcall() functions. And
in the modular case, this must be reflected as a constraint on the
module loading order.

Currently using attribute "energy_performance_preference", user space can
write one of the four per-defined preference string. These preference
strings gets mapped to a hard-coded Energy-Performance Preference (EPP) or
Energy-Performance Bias (EPB) knob.
These four values are supposed to cover broad spectrum of use cases, but
are not uniformly distributed in the range. There are number of cases,
where this is not enough. For example:
Suppose user wants more performance when connected to AC. Instead of using
default "balance performance", the "performance" setting can be used. This
changes EPP value from 0x80 to 0x00. But setting EPP to 0, results in
electrical and thermal issues on some platforms. This results in
aggressive throttling, which causes a drop in performance. But some value
between 0x80 and 0x00 results in better performance. But that value can't
be fixed as the power curve is not linear. In some cases just changing EPP
from 0x80 to 0x75 is enough to get significant performance gain.
Similarly on battery the default "balance_performance" mode can be
aggressive in power consumption. But picking up the next choice
"balance power" results in too much loss of performance, which results in
bad user experience in use cases like "Google Hangout". It was observed
that some value between these two EPP is optimal.
This change allows fine grain EPP tuning for platform like Chromebook or
for users who wants to fine tune power and performance.
Here based on the product and use cases, different EPP values can be set.
This change is similar to the change done for:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/power/energy_perf_bias
where user has choice to write a predefined string or raw value.
The change itself is trivial. When user preference doesn't match
predefined string preferences and value is an unsigned integer and in
range, use that value for EPP. When the EPP feature is not present
writing raw value is not supported.

By default intel_pstate the driver disables energy efficiency by setting
MSR_IA32_POWER_CTL bit 19 for Kaby Lake desktop CPU model in HWP mode.
This CPU model is also shared by Coffee Lake desktop CPUs. This allows
these systems to reach maximum possible frequency. But this adds power
penalty, which some customers don't want. They want some way to enable/
disable dynamically.
So, add an additional attribute "energy_efficiency" under
/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/ for these CPU models. This allows
to read and write bit 19 ("Disable Energy Efficiency Optimization") in
the MSR IA32_POWER_CTL.
This attribute is present in both HWP and non-HWP mode as this has an
effect in both modes. Refer to Intel Software Developer's manual for
details.
The scope of this bit is package wide. Also these systems are single
package systems. So read/write MSR on the current CPU is enough.
The energy efficiency (EE) bit setting needs to be preserved during
suspend/resume and CPU offline/online operation. To do this:
- Restoring the EE setting from the cpufreq resume() callback, if there
is change from the system default.
- By default, don't disable EE from cpufreq init() callback for matching
CPU models. Since the scope is package wide and is a single package
system, move the disable EE calls from init() callback to
intel_pstate_init() function, which is called only once.

Several variants of Linux-kernel RCU interact with task-exit processing,
including preemptible RCU, Tasks RCU, and Tasks Trace RCU. This commit
therefore adds testing of this interaction to rcutorture by adding
rcutorture.read_exit_burst and rcutorture.read_exit_delay kernel-boot
parameters. These kernel parameters control the frequency and spacing
of special read-then-exit kthreads that are spawned.

This commit further avoids conflation of refperf with the kernel's perf
feature by renaming kernel/rcu/refperf.c to kernel/rcu/refscale.c,
and also by similarly renaming the functions and variables inside
this file. This has the side effect of changing the names of the
kernel boot parameters, so kernel-parameters.txt and ver_functions.sh
are also updated.
The rcutorture --torture type remains refperf, and this will be
addressed in a separate commit.

In order to reduce the dynamic need for pages in kfree_rcu(),
pre-allocate a configurable number of pages per CPU and link
them in a list. When kfree_rcu() reclaims objects, the object's
container page is cached into a list instead of being released
to the low-level page allocator.
Such an approach provides O(1) access to free pages while also
reducing the number of requests to the page allocator. It also
makes the kfree_rcu() code to have free pages available during
a low memory condition.
A read-only sysfs parameter (rcu_min_cached_objs) reflects the
minimum number of allowed cached pages per CPU.

USB4 spec specifies standard access to retimers (both on-board and
cable) through USB4 port sideband access. This makes it possible to
upgrade their firmware in the same way than we already do with the
routers.
This enumerates on-board retimers under each USB4 port when the link
comes up and adds them to the bus under the router the retimer belongs
to. Retimers are exposed in sysfs with name like <device>:<port>.<index>
where device is the router the retimer belongs to, port is the USB4 port
the retimer is connected to and index is the retimer index under that
port (starting from 1). This applies to the upstream USB4 port as well
so if there is on-board retimer between the port and the router it is
also added accordingly.
At this time we do not add cable retimers but there is no techincal
restriction to do so in the future if needed. It is not clear whether it
makes sense to upgrade their firmwares and at least Thunderbolt 3 cables
it has not been done outside of lab environments.
The sysfs interface is made to follow the router NVM upgrade to make it
easy to extend the existing userspace (fwupd) to handle these as well.

"The 9th episode of the dime novel "The performance killer" with the
subtitle "Slow Randomizing Boosts Denial of Service".
SRBDS is an MDS-like speculative side channel that can leak bits from
the random number generator (RNG) across cores and threads. New
microcode serializes the processor access during the execution of
RDRAND and RDSEED. This ensures that the shared buffer is overwritten
before it is released for reuse. This is equivalent to a full bus
lock, which means that many threads running the RNG instructions in
parallel have the same effect as the same amount of threads issuing a
locked instruction targeting an address which requires locking of two
cachelines at once.
The mitigation support comes with the usual pile of unpleasant
ingredients:
- command line options
- sysfs file
- microcode checks
- a list of vulnerable CPUs identified by model and stepping this
time which requires stepping match support for the cpu match logic.
- the inevitable slowdown of affected CPUs"

Usually when the kernel reaches an oops condition, it's a point of no
return; in case not enough debug information is available in the kernel
splat, one of the last resorts would be to collect a kernel crash dump
and analyze it. The problem with this approach is that in order to
collect the dump, a panic is required (to kexec-load the crash kernel).
When in an environment of multiple virtual machines, users may prefer to
try living with the oops, at least until being able to properly shutdown
their VMs / finish their important tasks.
This patch implements a way to collect a bit more debug details when an
oops event is reached, by printing all the CPUs backtraces through the
usage of NMIs (on architectures that support that). The sysctl added
(and documented) here was called "oops_all_cpu_backtrace", and when set
will (as the name suggests) dump all CPUs backtraces.
Far from ideal, this may be the last option though for users that for
some reason cannot panic on oops. Most of times oopses are clear enough
to indicate the kernel portion that must be investigated, but in virtual
environments it's possible to observe hypervisor/KVM issues that could
lead to oopses shown in other guests CPUs (like virtual APIC crashes).
This patch hence aims to help debug such complex issues without
resorting to kdump.

Commit 401c636a0e ("kernel/hung_task.c: show all hung tasks before
panic") introduced a change in that we started to show all CPUs
backtraces when a hung task is detected _and_ the sysctl/kernel
parameter "hung_task_panic" is set. The idea is good, because usually
when observing deadlocks (that may lead to hung tasks), the culprit is
another task holding a lock and not necessarily the task detected as
hung.
The problem with this approach is that dumping backtraces is a slightly
expensive task, specially printing that on console (and specially in
many CPU machines, as servers commonly found nowadays). So, users that
plan to collect a kdump to investigate the hung tasks and narrow down
the deadlock definitely don't need the CPUs backtrace on dmesg/console,
which will delay the panic and pollute the log (crash tool would easily
grab all CPUs traces with 'bt -a' command).
Also, there's the reciprocal scenario: some users may be interested in
seeing the CPUs backtraces but not have the system panic when a hung
task is detected. The current approach hence is almost as embedding a
policy in the kernel, by forcing the CPUs backtraces' dump (only) on
hung_task_panic.
This patch decouples the panic event on hung task from the CPUs
backtraces dump, by creating (and documenting) a new sysctl called
"hung_task_all_cpu_backtrace", analog to the approach taken on soft/hard
lockups, that have both a panic and an "all_cpu_backtrace" sysctl to
allow individual control. The new mechanism for dumping the CPUs
backtraces on hung task detection respects "hung_task_warnings" by not
dumping the traces in case there's no warnings left.

After a recent change introduced by Vlastimil's series [0], kernel is
able now to handle sysctl parameters on kernel command line; also, the
series introduced a simple infrastructure to convert legacy boot
parameters (that duplicate sysctls) into sysctl aliases.
This patch converts the watchdog parameters softlockup_panic and
{hard,soft}lockup_all_cpu_backtrace to use the new alias infrastructure.
It fixes the documentation too, since the alias only accepts values 0 or
1, not the full range of integers.
We also took the opportunity here to improve the documentation of the
previously converted hung_task_panic (see the patch series [0]) and put
the alias table in alphabetical order.

This patch converts the hung_task_panic parameter. Note that the sysctl
handler is more strict and allows only 0 and 1, while the legacy
parameter allowed any non-zero value. But there is little reason anyone

Patch series "support setting sysctl parameters from kernel command line", v3.
This series adds support for something that seems like many people
always wanted but nobody added it yet, so here's the ability to set
sysctl parameters via kernel command line options in the form of
sysctl.vm.something=1
The important part is Patch 1. The second, not so important part is an
attempt to clean up legacy one-off parameters that do the same thing as
a sysctl. I don't want to remove them completely for compatibility
reasons, but with generic sysctl support the idea is to remove the
one-off param handlers and treat the parameters as aliases for the
sysctl variants.
I have identified several parameters that mention sysctl counterparts in
Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt but there might be more.
The conversion also has varying level of success:
- numa_zonelist_order is converted in Patch 2 together with adding the
necessary infrastructure. It's easy as it doesn't really do anything
but warn on deprecated value these days.
- hung_task_panic is converted in Patch 3, but there's a downside that
now it only accepts 0 and 1, while previously it was any integer
value
- nmi_watchdog maps to two sysctls nmi_watchdog and hardlockup_panic,
so there's no straighforward conversion possible
- traceoff_on_warning is a flag without value and it would be required
to handle that somehow in the conversion infractructure, which seems
pointless for a single flag
This patch (of 5):
A recently proposed patch to add vm_swappiness command line parameter in
addition to existing sysctl [1] made me wonder why we don't have a
general support for passing sysctl parameters via command line.
Googling found only somebody else wondering the same [2], but I haven't
found any prior discussion with reasons why not to do this.
Settings the vm_swappiness issue aside (the underlying issue might be
solved in a different way), quick search of kernel-parameters.txt shows
there are already some that exist as both sysctl and kernel parameter -
hung_task_panic, nmi_watchdog, numa_zonelist_order, traceoff_on_warning.
A general mechanism would remove the need to add more of those one-offs
and might be handy in situations where configuration by e.g.
/etc/sysctl.d/ is impractical.
Hence, this patch adds a new parse_args() pass that looks for parameters
prefixed by 'sysctl.' and tries to interpret them as writes to the
corresponding sys/ files using an temporary in-kernel procfs mount.
This mechanism was suggested by Eric W. Biederman [3], as it handles
all dynamically registered sysctl tables, even though we don't handle
modular sysctls. Errors due to e.g. invalid parameter name or value
are reported in the kernel log.
The processing is hooked right before the init process is loaded, as
some handlers might be more complicated than simple setters and might
need some subsystems to be initialized. At the moment the init process
can be started and eventually execute a process writing to /proc/sys/
then it should be also fine to do that from the kernel.
Sysctls registered later on module load time are not set by this
mechanism - it's expected that in such scenarios, setting sysctl values
from userspace is practical enough.

Analogously to the introduction of panic_on_warn, this patch introduces
a kernel option named panic_on_taint in order to provide a simple and
generic way to stop execution and catch a coredump when the kernel gets
tainted by any given flag.
This is useful for debugging sessions as it avoids having to rebuild the
kernel to explicitly add calls to panic() into the code sites that
introduce the taint flags of interest.
For instance, if one is interested in proceeding with a post-mortem
analysis at the point a given code path is hitting a bad page (i.e.
unaccount_page_cache_page(), or slab_bug()), a coredump can be collected
by rebooting the kernel with 'panic_on_taint=0x20' amended to the
command line.
Another, perhaps less frequent, use for this option would be as a means
for assuring a security policy case where only a subset of taints, or no
single taint (in paranoid mode), is allowed for the running system. The
optional switch 'nousertaint' is handy in this particular scenario, as
it will avoid userspace induced crashes by writes to sysctl interface
/proc/sys/kernel/tainted causing false positive hits for such policies.

Instead of enabling dynamic debug globally with CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG,
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE will only enable core function of dynamic
debug. With the DYNAMIC_DEBUG_MODULE defined for any modules, dynamic
debug will be tied to them.
This is useful for people who only want to enable dynamic debug for
kernel modules without worrying about kernel image size and memory
consumption is increasing too much.

Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.
Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
For each line:
If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
return 200 OK and serve the same content:
Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

Here is the tty and serial driver updates for 5.8-rc1
Nothing huge at all, just a lot of little serial driver fixes, updates
for new devices and features, and other small things. Full details are
in the shortlog.
Note, you will get a conflict merging with your tree in the
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/serial/rs485.yaml file, but it should
be pretty obvious what to do. If not, I'm sure Rob will clean it all up
afterwards :)
All of these have been in linux-next with no issues for a while.

version 2 feature that adds support for pairing regular block
devices with a zoned device to ease performance impact associated
with finite random zones of zoned device. Changes came in 3
batches: first prepared for and then added the ability to pair a
single regular block device, second was a batch of fixes to improve
zoned's reclaim heuristic, third removed the limitation of only
adding a single additional regular block device to allow many
devices. Testing has shown linear scaling as more devices are
added.
- Add new emulated block size (ebs) target that emulates a smaller
logical_block_size than a block device supports. Primary use-case
is to emulate "512e" devices that have 512 byte logical_block_size
and 4KB physical_block_size. This is useful to some legacy
applications otherwise wouldn't be ablee to be used on 4K devices
because they depend on issuing IO in 512 byte granularity.
- Add discard interfaces to DM bufio. First consumer of the interface
is the dm-ebs target that makes heavy use of dm-bufio.
- Fix DM crypt's block queue_limits stacking to not truncate
logic_block_size.
- Add Documentation for DM integrity's status line.
- Switch DMDEBUG from a compile time config option to instead use
dynamic debug via pr_debug.
- Fix DM multipath target's hueristic for how it manages
"queue_if_no_path" state internally. DM multipath now avoids
disabling "queue_if_no_path" unless it is actually needed (e.g. in
response to configure timeout or explicit "fail_if_no_path"
message). This fixes reports of spurious -EIO being reported back
to userspace application during fault tolerance testing with an NVMe
backend. Added various dynamic DMDEBUG messages to assist with
debugging queue_if_no_path in the future.
- Add a new DM multipath "Historical Service Time" Path Selector.
- Fix DM multipath's dm_blk_ioctl() to switch paths on IO error.
- Improve DM writecache target performance by using explicit
cache flushing for target's single-threaded usecase and a small
cleanup to remove unnecessary test in persistent_memory_claim.

Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
- Media documentation is now split into admin-guide, driver-api and
userspace-api books (a longstanding request from Jon);
- The media Kconfig was reorganized, in order to make easier to select
drivers and their dependencies;
- The testing drivers now has a separate directory;
- added a new driver for Rockchip Video Decoder IP;
- The atomisp staging driver was resurrected. It is meant to work with
4 generations of cameras on Atom-based laptops, tablets and cell
phones. So, it seems worth investing time to cleanup this driver and
making it in good shape.
- Added some V4L2 core ancillary routines to help with h264 codecs;
- Added an ov2740 image sensor driver;
- The si2157 gained support for Analog TV, which, in turn, added
support for some cx231xx and cx23885 boards to also support analog
standards;
- Added some V4L2 controls (V4L2_CID_CAMERA_ORIENTATION and
V4L2_CID_CAMERA_SENSOR_ROTATION) to help identifying where the camera
is located at the device;
- VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT was extended to support MC-centric devices;
- Lots of drivers improvements and cleanups.

With the advent of fast random IO devices (SSDs, PMEM) and in-memory swap
devices such as zswap, it's possible for swap to be much faster than
filesystems, and for swapping to be preferable over thrashing filesystem
caches.
Allow setting swappiness - which defines the rough relative IO cost of
cache misses between page cache and swap-backed pages - to reflect such
situations by making the swap-preferred range configurable.

With all hugetlb page processing done in a single file clean up code.
- Make code match desired semantics
- Update documentation with semantics
- Make all warnings and errors messages start with 'HugeTLB:'.
- Consistently name command line parsing routines.
- Warn if !hugepages_supported() and command line parameters have
been specified.
- Add comments to code
- Describe some of the subtle interactions
- Describe semantics of command line arguments
This patch also fixes issues with implicitly setting the number of
gigantic huge pages to preallocate. Previously on X86 command line,
hugepages=2 default_hugepagesz=1G
would result in zero 1G pages being preallocated and,
# grep HugePages_Total /proc/meminfo
HugePages_Total: 0
# sysctl -a | grep nr_hugepages
vm.nr_hugepages = 2
vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy = 2
# cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
2
After this patch 2 gigantic pages will be preallocated and all the proc,
sysfs, sysctl and meminfo files will accurately reflect this.
To address the issue with gigantic pages, a small change in behavior was
made to command line processing. Previously the command line,
hugepages=128 default_hugepagesz=2M hugepagesz=2M hugepages=256
would result in the allocation of 256 2M huge pages. The value 128 would
be ignored without any warning. After this patch, 128 2M pages will be
allocated and a warning message will be displayed indicating the value of
256 is ignored. This change in behavior is required because allocation of
implicitly specified gigantic pages must be done when the
default_hugepagesz= is encountered for gigantic pages. Previously the
code waited until later in the boot process (hugetlb_init), to allocate
pages of default size. However the bootmem allocator required for
gigantic allocations is not available at this time.

'max_ptes_shared' specifies how many pages can be shared across multiple
processes. Exceeding the number would block the collapse::
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/max_ptes_shared
A higher value may increase memory footprint for some workloads.
By default, at least half of pages has to be not shared.

cycles.
- Add tsc_early_khz command line parameter to workaround the problem that
overclocked CPUs can report the wrong frequency via CPUID.16h which
causes the refined calibration to fail because the delta to the initial
frequency value is too big. With the parameter users can provide an

Add a memory.swap.high knob, which can be used to protect the system
from SWAP exhaustion. The mechanism used for penalizing is similar to
memory.high penalty (sleep on return to user space).
That is not to say that the knob itself is equivalent to memory.high.
The objective is more to protect the system from potentially buggy tasks
consuming a lot of swap and impacting other tasks, or even bringing the
whole system to stand still with complete SWAP exhaustion. Hopefully
without the need to find per-task hard limits.
Slowing misbehaving tasks down gradually allows user space oom killers
or other protection mechanisms to react. oomd and earlyoom already do
killing based on swap exhaustion, and memory.swap.high protection will
help implement such userspace oom policies more reliably.
We can use one counter for number of pages allocated under pressure to
save struct task space and avoid two separate hierarchy walks on the hot
path. The exact overage is calculated on return to user space, anyway.
Take the new high limit into account when determining if swap is "full".
Borrowing the explanation from Johannes:
The idea behind "swap full" is that as long as the workload has plenty
of swap space available and it's not changing its memory contents, it
makes sense to generously hold on to copies of data in the swap device,
even after the swapin. A later reclaim cycle can drop the page without
any IO. Trading disk space for IO.
But the only two ways to reclaim a swap slot is when they're faulted
in and the references go away, or by scanning the virtual address space
like swapoff does - which is very expensive (one could argue it's too
expensive even for swapoff, it's often more practical to just reboot).
So at some point in the fill level, we have to start freeing up swap
slots on fault/swapin. Otherwise we could eventually run out of swap
slots while they're filled with copies of data that is also in RAM.
We don't want to OOM a workload because its available swap space is
filled with redundant cache.

There's a new workingset counter introduced in commit 1899ad18c6 ("mm:
workingset: tell cache transitions from workingset thrashing"). With
the help of this counter we can know the workingset is transitioning or
thrashing. To leverage the benifit of this counter to memcg, we should
introduce it into memory.stat. Then we could know the workingset of the
workload inside a memcg better.
Bellow is the verification of this new counter in memory.stat. Read a
file into the memory and then read it again to make these pages be
active. The size of this file is 1G. (memory.max is greater than file
size) The counters in memory.stat will be
inactive_file 0
active_file 1073639424
workingset_refault 0
workingset_activate 0
workingset_restore 0
workingset_nodereclaim 0
Trigger the memcg reclaim by setting a lower value to memory.high, and
then some pages will be demoted into inactive list, and then some pages
in the inactive list will be evicted into the storage.
inactive_file 498094080
active_file 310063104
workingset_refault 0
workingset_activate 0
workingset_restore 0
workingset_nodereclaim 0
Then recover the memory.high and read the file into memory again. As a
result of it, the transitioning will occur. Bellow is the result of
this transitioning,
inactive_file 498094080
active_file 575397888
workingset_refault 64746
workingset_activate 64746
workingset_restore 64746

The recent patch ("kgdboc: Add kgdboc_earlycon to support early kgdb
using boot consoles") adds a new kernel command line parameter.
Document it.
Note that the patch adding the feature does some comparing/contrasting
of "kgdboc_earlycon" vs. the existing "ekgdboc". See that patch for
more details, but briefly "ekgdboc" can be used _instead_ of "kgdboc"
and just makes "kgdboc" do its normal initialization early (only works
if your tty driver is already ready). The new "kgdboc_earlycon" works
in combination with "kgdboc" and is backed by boot consoles.

- Branch Target Identification (BTI)
* Support for ARMv8.5-BTI in both user- and kernel-space. This
allows branch targets to limit the types of branch from which
they can be called and additionally prevents branching to
arbitrary code, although kernel support requires a very recent
toolchain.
* Function annotation via SYM_FUNC_START() so that assembly
functions are wrapped with the relevant "landing pad"
instructions.
* BPF and vDSO updates to use the new instructions.
* Addition of a new HWCAP and exposure of BTI capability to
userspace via ID register emulation, along with ELF loader
support for the BTI feature in .note.gnu.property.
* Non-critical fixes to CFI unwind annotations in the sigreturn
trampoline.
- Shadow Call Stack (SCS)
* Support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack feature, which reserves
platform register x18 to point at a separate stack for each
task that holds only return addresses. This protects function
return control flow from buffer overruns on the main stack.
* Save/restore of x18 across problematic boundaries (user-mode,
hypervisor, EFI, suspend, etc).
* Core support for SCS, should other architectures want to use it
too.
* SCS overflow checking on context-switch as part of the existing
stack limit check if CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK=y.
- CPU feature detection
* Removed numerous "SANITY CHECK" errors when running on a system
with mismatched AArch32 support at EL1. This is primarily a
concern for KVM, which disabled support for 32-bit guests on
such a system.
* Addition of new ID registers and fields as the architecture has

- Hardware errata
* Unify KVM workarounds for VHE and nVHE configurations.
* Sort vendor errata entries in Kconfig.
- Secure Monitor Call Calling Convention (SMCCC)

hypervisor, EFI, suspend, etc).
- Core support for SCS, should other architectures want to use it
too.
- SCS overflow checking on context-switch as part of the existing
stack limit check if CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK=y.
CPU feature detection:
- Removed numerous "SANITY CHECK" errors when running on a system
with mismatched AArch32 support at EL1. This is primarily a concern
for KVM, which disabled support for 32-bit guests on such a system.
- Addition of new ID registers and fields as the architecture has
been extended.
Perf and PMU drivers:
- Minor fixes and cleanups to system PMU drivers.
Hardware errata:
- Unify KVM workarounds for VHE and nVHE configurations.
- Sort vendor errata entries in Kconfig.
Secure Monitor Call Calling Convention (SMCCC):
- Update to the latest specification from Arm (v1.2).
- Allow PSCI code to query the SMCCC version.
Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI):
- Unexport a bunch of unused symbols.
- Minor fixes to handling of firmware data.
Pointer authentication:
- Add support for dumping the kernel PAC mask in vmcoreinfo so that
the stack can be unwound by tools such as kdump.
- Simplification of key initialisation during CPU bringup.
BPF backend:
- Improve immediate generation for logical and add/sub instructions.
vDSO:
- Minor fixes to the linker flags for consistency with other
architectures and support for LLVM's unwinder.
- Clean up logic to initialise and map the vDSO into userspace.
ACPI:
- Work around for an ambiguity in the IORT specification relating to
the "num_ids" field.
- Support _DMA method for all named components rather than only PCIe
root complexes.
- Minor other IORT-related fixes.
Miscellaneous:
- Initialise debug traps early for KGDB and fix KDB cacheflushing
deadlock.
- Minor tweaks to early boot state (documentation update, set
TEXT_OFFSET to 0x0, increase alignment of PE/COFF sections).
- Refactoring and cleanup"

This introduces mtdpstore, which is similar to mtdoops but more
powerful. It uses pstore/blk, and aims to store panic and oops logs to
a flash partition, where pstore can later read back and present as files
in the mounted pstore filesystem.
To make mtdpstore work, the "blkdev" of pstore/blk should be set
as MTD device name or MTD device number. For more details, see
Documentation/admin-guide/pstore-blk.rst
This solves a number of issues:
- Work duplication: both of pstore and mtdoops do the same job storing
panic/oops log. They have very similar logic, registering to kmsg
dumper and storing logs to several chunks one by one.
- Layer violations: drivers should provides methods instead of polices.
MTD should provide read/write/erase operations, and allow a higher
level drivers to provide the chunk management, kmsg dump
configuration, etc.
- Missing features: pstore provides many additional features, including
presenting the logs as files, logging dump time and count, and
supporting other frontends like pmsg, console, etc.

Add support for non-block devices (e.g. MTD). A non-block driver calls
pstore_blk_register_device() to register iself.
In addition, pstore/zone is updated to handle non-block devices,
where an erase must be done before a write. Without this, there is no
way to remove records stored to an MTD.

Now that pstore_register() can correctly pass max_reason to the kmesg
dump facility, introduce a new "max_reason" module parameter and
"max-reason" Device Tree field.
The "dump_oops" module parameter and "dump-oops" Device
Tree field are now considered deprecated, but are now automatically
converted to their corresponding max_reason values when present, though
the new max_reason setting has precedence.
For struct ramoops_platform_data, the "dump_oops" member is entirely
replaced by a new "max_reason" member, with the only existing user
updated in place.
Additionally remove the "reason" filter logic from ramoops_pstore_write(),
as that is not specifically needed anymore, though technically
this is a change in behavior for any ramoops users also setting the
printk.always_kmsg_dump boot param, which will cause ramoops to behave as
if max_reason was set to KMSG_DUMP_MAX.

Currently, the root cgroup does not have a cpu.stat file. Add one which
is consistent with /proc/stat to capture global cpu statistics that
might not fall under cgroup accounting.
We haven't done this in the past because the data are already presented
in /proc/stat and we didn't want to add overhead from collecting root
cgroup stats when cgroups are configured, but no cgroups have been
created.
By keeping the data consistent with /proc/stat, I think we avoid the
first problem, while improving the usability of cgroups stats.
We avoid the second problem by computing the contents of cpu.stat from
existing data collected for /proc/stat anyway.

Changing base clock frequency directly impacts TSC Hz but not CPUID.16h
value. An overclocked CPU supporting CPUID.16h and with partial CPUID.15h
support will set TSC KHZ according to "best guess" given by CPUID.16h
relying on tsc_refine_calibration_work to give better numbers later.
tsc_refine_calibration_work will refuse to do its work when the outcome is
off the early TSC KHZ value by more than 1% which is certain to happen on
an overclocked system.
Fix this by adding a tsc_early_khz command line parameter that makes the
kernel skip early TSC calibration and use the given value instead.
This allows the user to provide the expected TSC frequency that is closer
to reality than the one reported by the hardware, enabling
tsc_refine_calibration_work to do meaningful error checking.
[ tglx: Made the variable __initdata as it's only used on init and
removed the error checking in the argument parser because
kstrto*() only stores to the variable if the string is valid ]

Implement handling for metadata version 2. The new metadata adds a
label and UUID for the device mapper device, and additional UUID for
the underlying block devices.
It also allows for an additional regular drive to be used for
emulating random access zones. The emulated zones will be placed
logically in front of the zones from the zoned block device, causing
the superblocks and metadata to be stored on that device.
The first zone of the original zoned device will be used to hold
another, tertiary copy of the metadata; this copy carries a generation
number of 0 and is never updated; it's just used for identification.

The goal is to be able to inherit the initial devconf parameters from the
current netns, ie the netns where this new netns has been created.
This is useful in a containers environment where /proc/sys is read only.
For example, if a pod is created with specifics devconf parameters and has
the capability to create netns, the user expects to get the same parameters
than his 'init_net', which is not the real init_net in this case.

Spinning with interrupts disabled is still available via the

Note that sleeping (as opposed to preemption) results in additional

Add the initrdmem option:
initrdmem=ss[KMG],nn[KMG]
which is used to specify the physical address of the initrd, almost
always an address in FLASH. Also add code for x86 to use the existing
phys_init_start and phys_init_size variables in the kernel.
This is useful in cases where a kernel and an initrd is placed in FLASH,
but there is no firmware file system structure in the FLASH.
One such situation occurs when unused FLASH space on UEFI systems has
been reclaimed by, e.g., taking it from the Management Engine. For
example, on many systems, the ME is given half the FLASH part; not only
is 2.75M of an 8M part unused; but 10.75M of a 16M part is unused. This
space can be used to contain an initrd, but need to tell Linux where it
is.
This space is "raw": due to, e.g., UEFI limitations: it can not be added
to UEFI firmware volumes without rebuilding UEFI from source or writing
a UEFI device driver. It can be referenced only as a physical address
and size.
At the same time, if a kernel can be "netbooted" or loaded from GRUB or
syslinux, the option of not using the physical address specification
should be available.
Then, it is easy to boot the kernel and provide an initrd; or boot the
the kernel and let it use the initrd in FLASH. In practice, this has
proven to be very helpful when integrating Linux into FLASH on x86.
Hence, the most flexible and convenient path is to enable the initrdmem
command line option in a way that it is the last choice tried.
For example, on the DigitalLoggers Atomic Pi, an image into FLASH can be
burnt in with a built-in command line which includes:
initrdmem=0xff968000,0x200000
which specifies a location and size.

Commit bd0e6c9614 ("usb: hub: try old enumeration scheme first for
high speed devices") changed the way the hub driver enumerates
high-speed devices. Instead of using the "new" enumeration scheme
first and switching to the "old" scheme if that doesn't work, we start
with the "old" scheme. In theory this is better because the "old"
scheme is slightly faster -- it involves resetting the device only
once instead of twice.
However, for a long time Windows used only the "new" scheme. Zeng Tao
said that Windows 8 and later use the "old" scheme for high-speed
devices, but apparently there are some devices that don't like it.
William Bader reports that the Ricoh webcam built into his Sony Vaio
laptop not only doesn't enumerate under the "old" scheme, it gets hung
up so badly that it won't then enumerate under the "new" scheme! Only
a cold reset will fix it.
Therefore we will revert the commit and go back to trying the "new"
scheme first for high-speed devices.

In order to better organize the main admin-guide index,
place the driver-specific indexes on separate files.
This ensures a more consistent numbering at the main index.

Separate the generic documentation from the driver-specific
parts, and use a better title for the documentation.

The old cards.rst file doesn't exist anymore. Also, it is not
the right reference there, as it should be pointing to the
bttv-specific cardlist.

While test drivers is probably something that normal users
won't bother, it doesn't hurt to add them to the card list.
This way, all drivers, except for the ones under staging,
would be listed there.

The SPI cards are also under the concept of "platform" drivers
as defined at the section introduction.
So, add a SPI card list there.

Having a table with a list of all USB drivers seems worth,
and it comes almost for free, as we can just use Kconfig
descriptions (with some adjustments).
So, add a table for that.

Instead of listing "other" PCI card list, just add a list with
the existing drivers (not including sub-drivers).

The frontend drivers list is incomplete. Update it from
what's there at the Kernel Kconfig files.
Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>
The DVB cards.rst file is old and outdated. It also contains
data that are contained on other cardlists. Remove the
duplicated information and split frontends and PCI cards on
separate files.
As all USB cards already have their own card lists, just drop
the old USB data there.

There are several other USB cards. Most of them support just
one device. The only exception is the "pwc" driver. But, as
updates to it are not frequent, let's just place everything
manually into a single file.
