Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".
- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.
- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.
- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
"mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
hotplugged as system memory.
- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.
- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
environments appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
certain userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It
realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging
of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
memory compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages()
to an iterator".
- Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
"Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".
- Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The
series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".
- David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
total_mapcount()", a cleanup.
- Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".
- Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which
are configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.
- Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.
- Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
also. S390 is affected.
- Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series
"mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()".

On architecutres, like arm, s390, ppc, sh, function
arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo() is located in machine_kexec.c and it can
only be compiled in when CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE=y.
That's not right because arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo() is used to export
arch specific vmcoreinfo. CONFIG_VMCORE_INFO is supposed to control its
compiling in. However, CONFIG_VMVCORE_INFO could be independent of
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, e.g CONFIG_PROC_KCORE=y will select CONFIG_VMVCORE_INFO.
Or CONFIG_KEXEC/CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is set while CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP is
not set, it will report linking error.
So, on arm, s390, ppc and sh, move arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo out to
a new file vmcore_info.c. Let CONFIG_VMCORE_INFO decide if compiling in
arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo().

Move, rename, and merge the fpu and vx header files. This way fpu header
files have a consistent naming scheme (fpu*.h).
Also get rid of the fpu subdirectory and move header files to asm
directory, so that all fpu and vx header files can be found at the same
location.
Merge internal.h header file into other header files, since the internal
helpers are used at many locations. so those helper functions are really

Get rid of MACHINE_HAS_VX and replace it with cpu_has_vx() which is a
short readable wrapper for "test_facility(129)".
Facility bit 129 is set if the vector facility is present. test_facility()
returns also true for all bits which are set in the architecture level set
of the cpu that the kernel is compiled for. This means that
test_facility(129) is a compile time constant which returns true for z13
and later, since the vector facility bit is part of the z13 kernel ALS.
In result the compiled code will have less runtime checks, and less code.

To allow calling of DAT-off code from kernel the stack needs
to be switched to nodat_stack (or other stack mapped as 1:1).
Before call_nodat() macro was introduced that was necessary
to provide the very same memory address for STNSM and STOSM
instructions. If the kernel would stay on a random stack
(e.g. a virtually mapped one) then a virtual address provided
for STNSM instruction could differ from the physical address
needed for the corresponding STOSM instruction.
After call_nodat() macro is introduced the kernel stack does
not need to be mapped 1:1 anymore, since the macro stores the
physical memory address of return PSW in a register before
entering DAT-off mode. This way the return LPSWE instruction
is able to pick the correct memory location and restore the
DAT-on mode. That however might fail in case the 16-byte return
PSW happened to cross page boundary: PSW mask and PSW address
could end up in two separate non-contiguous physical pages.
Align the return PSW on 16-byte boundary so it always fits
into a single physical page. As result any stack (including
the virtually mapped one) could be used for calling DAT-off
code and prior switching to nodat_stack becomes unnecessary.

Calling kdump kernel is a two-step process that involves
invocation of the purgatory code: first time - to verify
the new kernel checksum and second time - to call the new
kernel itself.
The purgatory code operates on real addresses and does not
expect any memory protection. Therefore, before the purgatory
code is entered the DAT mode is always turned off. However,
it is only restored upon return from the new kernel checksum
verification. In case the purgatory was called to start the
new kernel and failed the control is returned to the old
kernel, but the DAT mode continues staying off.
The new kernel start failure is unlikely and leads to the
disabled wait state anyway. Still that poses a risk, since
the kernel code in general is not DAT-off safe and even
calling the disabled_wait() function might crash.
Introduce call_nodat() macro that allows entering DAT-off
mode, calling an arbitrary function and restoring DAT mode
back on. Switch all invocations of DAT-off code to that
macro and avoid the above described scenario altogether.
Name the call_nodat() macro in small letters after the
already existing call_on_stack() and put it to the same
header file.

Temporary unsetting of the prefix page in memcpy_absolute() routine
poses a risk of executing code path with unexpectedly disabled prefix
page. This rework avoids the prefix page uninstalling and disabling
of normal and machine check interrupts when accessing the absolute
zero memory.
Although memcpy_absolute() routine can access the whole memory, it is
only used to update the absolute zero lowcore. This rework therefore
introduces a new mechanism for the absolute zero lowcore access and
scraps memcpy_absolute() routine for good.
Instead, an area is reserved in the virtual memory that is used for
the absolute lowcore access only. That area holds an array of 8KB
virtual mappings - one per CPU. Whenever a CPU is brought online, the
corresponding item is mapped to the real address of the previously
installed prefix page.
The absolute zero lowcore access works like this: a CPU calls the
new primitive get_abs_lowcore() to obtain its 8KB mapping as a
pointer to the struct lowcore. Virtual address references to that
pointer get translated to the real addresses of the prefix page,
which in turn gets swapped with the absolute zero memory addresses
due to prefixing. Once the pointer is not needed it must be released
with put_abs_lowcore() primitive:
struct lowcore *abs_lc;
unsigned long flags;
abs_lc = get_abs_lowcore(&flags);
abs_lc->... = ...;
put_abs_lowcore(abs_lc, flags);
To ensure the described mechanism works large segment- and region-
table entries must be avoided for the 8KB mappings. Failure to do
so results in usage of Region-Frame Absolute Address (RFAA) or
Segment-Frame Absolute Address (SFAA) large page fields. In that
case absolute addresses would be used to address the prefix page
instead of the real ones and the prefixing would get bypassed.

The restart interrupt is triggered whenever a secondary CPU is
brought online, a remote function call dispatched from another
CPU or a manual PSW restart is initiated and causes the system
to kdump. The handling routine is always called with DAT turned
off. It then initializes the stack frame and invokes a callback.
The existing callbacks handle DAT as follows:
* __do_restart() and __machine_kexec() turn in on upon entry;
* __ipl_run(), __reipl_run() and __dump_run() do not turn it
right away, but all of them call diag308() - which turns DAT
on, but only if kasan is enabled;
In addition to the described complexity all callbacks (and the
functions they call) should avoid kasan instrumentation while
DAT is off.
This update enables DAT in the assembler restart handler and
relieves any callbacks (which are mostly C functions) from
dealing with DAT altogether.
There are four types of CPU restart that initialize control
registers in different ways:
1. Start of secondary CPU on boot - control registers are
inherited from the IPL CPU;
2. Restart of online CPU - control registers of the CPU being
restarted are kept;
3. Hotplug of offline CPU - control registers are inherited
from the starting CPU;
4. Start of offline CPU triggered by manual PSW restart -
the control registers are read from the absolute lowcore
and contain the boot time IPL CPU values updated with all
follow-up calls of smp_ctl_set_bit() and smp_ctl_clear_bit()
routines;
In first three cases contents of the control registers is the
most recent. In the latter case control registers are good
enough to facilitate successful completion of kdump operation.

The dma section name is confusing, since the code which resides within
that section has nothing to do with direct memory access. Instead the
limitation is that the code has to run in 31 bit addressing mode, and
therefore has to reside below 2GB. So the name was chosen since
ZONE_DMA is the same region.
To reduce confusion rename the section to amode31, which hopefully
describes better what this is about.
Note: this will also change vmcoreinfo strings
- SDMA=... gets renamed to SAMODE31=...
- EDMA=... gets renamed to EAMODE31=...

Patch series "mm: cleanup usage of <asm/pgalloc.h>"
Most architectures have very similar versions of pXd_alloc_one() and
pXd_free_one() for intermediate levels of page table. These patches add
generic versions of these functions in <asm-generic/pgalloc.h> and enable
use of the generic functions where appropriate.
In addition, functions declared and defined in <asm/pgalloc.h> headers are
used mostly by core mm and early mm initialization in arch and there is no
actual reason to have the <asm/pgalloc.h> included all over the place.
The first patch in this series removes unneeded includes of
<asm/pgalloc.h>
In the end it didn't work out as neatly as I hoped and moving
pXd_alloc_track() definitions to <asm-generic/pgalloc.h> would require
unnecessary changes to arches that have custom page table allocations, so
I've decided to move lib/ioremap.c to mm/ and make pgalloc-track.h local
to mm/.
This patch (of 8):
In most cases <asm/pgalloc.h> header is required only for allocations of
page table memory. Most of the .c files that include that header do not
use symbols declared in <asm/pgalloc.h> and do not require that header.
As for the other header files that used to include <asm/pgalloc.h>, it is
possible to move that include into the .c file that actually uses symbols
from <asm/pgalloc.h> and drop the include from the header file.
The process was somewhat automated using
sed -i -E '/[<"]asm\/pgalloc\.h/d' \
$(grep -L -w -f /tmp/xx \
$(git grep -E -l '[<"]asm/pgalloc\.h'))
where /tmp/xx contains all the symbols defined in
arch/*/include/asm/pgalloc.h.

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.
The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once. For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.
Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.
static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}
static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}
These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.
For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.
These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.
This patch (of 12):
The linux/mm.h header includes <asm/pgtable.h> to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g. pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc(). So, there is no point to explicitly include <asm/pgtable.h>
in the files that include <linux/mm.h>.
The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:
for f in $(git grep -l "include <linux/mm.h>") ; do
sed -i -e '/include <asm\/pgtable.h>/ d' $f
done

The KASLR offset is added to vmcoreinfo in arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo(),
so that it can be found by crash when processing kernel dumps.
However, arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo() is called during a subsys_initcall,
so if the kernel crashes before that, we have no vmcoreinfo and no KASLR
offset.
Fix this by storing the KASLR offset in the lowcore, where the vmcore_info
pointer will be stored, and where it can be found by crash. In order to
make it distinguishable from a real vmcore_info pointer, mark it as uneven
(KASLR offset itself is aligned to THREAD_SIZE).
When arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo() stores the real vmcore_info pointer in
the lowcore, it overwrites the KASLR offset. At that point, the KASLR
offset is not yet added to vmcoreinfo, so we also need to move the
mem_assign_absolute() behind the vmcoreinfo_append_str().

The disabled_wait() function uses its argument as the PSW address when
it stops the CPU with a wait PSW that is disabled for interrupts.
The different callers sometimes use a specific number like 0xdeadbeef
to indicate a specific failure, the early boot code uses 0 and some
other calls sites use __builtin_return_address(0).
At the time a dump is created the current PSW and the registers of a
CPU are written to lowcore to make them avaiable to the dump analysis
tool. For a CPU stopped with disabled_wait the PSW and the registers
do not really make sense together, the PSW address does not point to
the function the registers belong to.
Simplify disabled_wait() by using _THIS_IP_ for the PSW address and
drop the argument to the function.

Rework the dump_trace() stack unwinder interface to support different
unwinding algorithms. The new interface looks like this:
struct unwind_state state;
unwind_for_each_frame(&state, task, regs, start_stack)
do_something(state.sp, state.ip, state.reliable);
The unwind_bc.c file contains the implementation for the classic
back-chain unwinder.
One positive side effect of the new code is it now handles ftraced
functions gracefully. It prints the real name of the return function
instead of 'return_to_handler'.

With a relocatable kernel that could reside at any place in memory, code
and data that has to stay below 2 GB needs special handling.
This patch introduces .dma sections for such text, data and ex_table.
The sections will be part of the decompressor kernel, so they will not
be relocated and stay below 2 GB. Their location is passed over to the
decompressed / relocated kernel via the .boot.preserved.data section.
The duald and aste for control register setup also need to stay below
2 GB, so move the setup code from arch/s390/kernel/head64.S to
arch/s390/boot/head.S. The duct and linkage_stack could reside above
2 GB, but their content has to be preserved for the decompresed kernel,
so they are also moved into the .dma section.
The start and end address of the .dma sections is added to vmcoreinfo,
for crash support, to help debugging in case the kernel crashed there.

With virtually mapped kernel stacks the kernel stack overflow detection
is now fault based, every stack has a guard page in the vmalloc space.
The panic_stack is renamed to nodat_stack and is used for all function
that need to run without DAT, e.g. memcpy_real or do_start_kdump.
The main effect is a reduction in the kernel image size as with vmap
stacks the old style overflow checking that adds two instructions per
function is not needed anymore. Result from bloat-o-meter:
add/remove: 20/1 grow/shrink: 13/26854 up/down: 2198/-216240 (-214042)
In regard to performance the micro-benchmark for fork has a hit of a
few microseconds, allocating 4 pages in vmalloc space is more expensive
compare to an order-2 page allocation. But with real workload I could
not find a noticeable difference.

s390 kdump reipl implementation relies on os_info kernel structure
residing in old memory being dumped. os_info contains reipl block,
which is used (if valid) by the kdump kernel for reipl parameters.
The problem is that the reipl block and its checksum inside
os_info is updated only when /sys/firmware/reipl/reipl_type is
written. This sets an offset of a reipl block for "reipl_type" and
re-calculates reipl block checksum. Any further alteration of values
under /sys/firmware/reipl/{reipl_type}/ without subsequent write to
/sys/firmware/reipl/reipl_type lead to incorrect os_info reipl block
checksum. In such a case kdump kernel ignores it and reboots using
default logic.
To fix this, os_info reipl block update is moved right before kdump
execution.

Rebooting into a new kernel with kexec fails (system dies) if tried on
a machine that has no-execute support. Reason for this is that the so
called datamover code gets executed with DAT on (MMU is active) and
the page that contains the datamover is marked as non-executable.
Therefore when branching into the datamover an unexpected program
check happens and afterwards the machine is dead.
This can be simply avoided by disabling DAT, which also disables any
no-execute checks, just before the datamover gets executed.
In fact the first thing done by the datamover is to disable DAT. The
code in the datamover that disables DAT can be removed as well.
Thanks to Michael Holzheu and Gerald Schaefer for tracking this down.

Remove the support to create a z/VM named saved segment (NSS). This
feature is not supported since quite a while in favour of jump labels,
function tracing and (now) CPU alternatives. All of these features
require to write to the kernel text section which is not possible if
the kernel is contained within an NSS.
Given that memory savings are minimal if kernel images are shared and
in addition updates of shared images are painful, the NSS feature can
be removed.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Before kexec boots to a crash kernel it checks whether the image in memory
changed after load. This is done by the function kdump_csum_valid, which
returns true, i.e. an int != 0, on success and 0 otherwise. In other words
when kdump_csum_valid returns an error code it means that the validation
succeeded. This is not only counterintuitive but also produces the wrong
result if the kernel was build without CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP. Fix this by
making kdump_csum_valid return a bool.

As Eric said,
"what we need to do is move the variable vmcoreinfo_note out of the
kernel's .bss section. And modify the code to regenerate and keep this
information in something like the control page.
Definitely something like this needs a page all to itself, and ideally
far away from any other kernel data structures. I clearly was not
watching closely the data someone decided to keep this silly thing in
the kernel's .bss section."
This patch allocates extra pages for these vmcoreinfo_XXX variables, one
advantage is that it enhances some safety of vmcoreinfo, because
vmcoreinfo now is kept far away from other kernel data structures.

This adds a new system call to enable the use of guarded storage for
user space processes. The system call takes two arguments, a command
and pointer to a guarded storage control block:
s390_guarded_storage(int command, struct gs_cb *gs_cb);
The second argument is relevant only for the GS_SET_BC_CB command.
The commands in detail:
0 - GS_ENABLE
Enable the guarded storage facility for the current task. The
initial content of the guarded storage control block will be
all zeros. After the enablement the user space code can use
load-guarded-storage-controls instruction (LGSC) to load an
arbitrary control block. While a task is enabled the kernel
will save and restore the current content of the guarded
storage registers on context switch.
1 - GS_DISABLE
Disables the use of the guarded storage facility for the current
task. The kernel will cease to save and restore the content of
the guarded storage registers, the task specific content of
these registers is lost.
2 - GS_SET_BC_CB
Set a broadcast guarded storage control block. This is called
per thread and stores a specific guarded storage control block
in the task struct of the current task. This control block will
be used for the broadcast event GS_BROADCAST.
3 - GS_CLEAR_BC_CB
Clears the broadcast guarded storage control block. The guarded-
storage control block is removed from the task struct that was
established by GS_SET_BC_CB.
4 - GS_BROADCAST
Sends a broadcast to all thread siblings of the current task.
Every sibling that has established a broadcast guarded storage
control block will load this control block and will be enabled
for guarded storage. The broadcast guarded storage control block
is used up, a second broadcast without a refresh of the stored
control block with GS_SET_BC_CB will not have any effect.

Reducing the size of reserved memory for the crash kernel will result
in an immediate crash on s390. Reason for that is that we do not
create struct pages for memory that is reserved. If that memory is
freed any access to struct pages which correspond to this memory will
result in invalid memory accesses and a kernel panic.
Fix this by properly creating struct pages when the system gets
initialized. Change the code also to make use of set_memory_ro() and
set_memory_rw() so page tables will be split if required.
