Pull s390 updates from Heiko Carstens:
- Add vfio-ap support to pass-through crypto devices to secure
execution guests
- Add API ordinal 6 support to zcrypt_ep11misc device drive, which is
required to handle key generate and key derive (e.g. secure key to
protected key) correctly
- Add missing secure/has_secure sysfs files for the case where it is
not possible to figure where a system has been booted from. Existing
user space relies on that these files are always present
- Fix DCSS block device driver list corruption, caused by incorrect
error handling
- Convert virt_to_pfn() and pfn_to_virt() from defines to static inline
functions to enforce type checking
- Cleanups, improvements, and minor fixes to the kernel mapping setup
- Fix various virtual vs physical address confusions
- Move pfault code to separate file, since it has nothing to do with
regular fault handling
- Move s390 documentation to Documentation/arch/ like it has been done
for other architectures already
- Add HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RETVAL support
- Factor out the s390_hypfs filesystem and add a new config option for
it. The filesystem is deprecated and as soon as all users are gone it
can be removed some time in the not so near future
- Remove support for old CEX2 and CEX3 crypto cards from zcrypt device
driver
- Add support for user-defined certificates: receive user-defined
certificates with a diagnose call and provide them via 'cert_store'
keyring to user space
- Couple of other small fixes and improvements all over the place

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
- The biggest change is introduction of a new iteration of the
SCHED_FAIR interactivity code: the EEVDF ("Earliest Eligible Virtual
Deadline First") scheduler
EEVDF too is a virtual-time scheduler, with two parameters (weight
and relative deadline), compared to CFS that had weight only. It
completely reworks the base scheduler: placement, preemption, picking
-- everything
LWN.net, as usual, has a terrific writeup about EEVDF:
https://lwn.net/Articles/925371/
Preemption (both tick and wakeup) is driven by testing against a
fresh pick. Because the tree is now effectively an interval tree, and
the selection is no longer the 'leftmost' task, over-scheduling is
less of a problem. A lot of the CFS heuristics are removed or
replaced by more natural latency-space parameters & constructs
In terms of expected performance regressions: we will and can fix
everything where a 'good' workload misbehaves with the new scheduler,
but EEVDF inevitably changes workload scheduling in a binary fashion,
hopefully for the better in the overwhelming majority of cases, but
in some cases it won't, especially in adversarial loads that got
lucky with the previous code, such as some variants of hackbench. We
are trying hard to err on the side of fixing all performance
regressions, but we expect some inevitable post-release iterations of
that process
- Improve load-balancing on hybrid x86 systems: enable cluster
scheduling (again)
- Improve & fix bandwidth-scheduling on nohz systems
- Improve bandwidth-throttling
- Use lock guards to simplify and de-goto-ify control flow

Pull CPU hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for the CPU hotplug core:
- Support partial SMT enablement.
So far the sysfs SMT control only allows to toggle between SMT on
and off. That's sufficient for x86 which usually has at max two
threads except for the Xeon PHI platform which has four threads per
core
Though PowerPC has up to 16 threads per core and so far it's only
possible to control the number of enabled threads per core via a
command line option. There is some way to control this at runtime,
but that lacks enforcement and the usability is awkward
This update expands the sysfs interface and the core infrastructure
to accept numerical values so PowerPC can build SMT runtime control
for partial SMT enablement on top
The core support has also been provided to the PowerPC maintainers
who added the PowerPC related changes on top
- Minor cleanups and documentation updates"

Pull fchmodat2 system call from Christian Brauner:
"This adds the fchmodat2() system call. It is a revised version of the
fchmodat() system call, adding a missing flag argument. Support for
both AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW and AT_EMPTY_PATH are included.
Adding this system call revision has been a longstanding request but
so far has always fallen through the cracks. While the kernel
implementation of fchmodat() does not have a flag argument the libc
provided POSIX-compliant fchmodat(3) version does. Both glibc and musl
have to implement a workaround in order to support AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW
(see [1] and [2]).
The workaround is brittle because it relies not just on O_PATH and
O_NOFOLLOW semantics and procfs magic links but also on our rather
inconsistent symlink semantics.
This gives userspace a proper fchmodat2() system call that libcs can
use to properly implement fchmodat(3) and allows them to get rid of
their hacks. In this case it will immediately benefit them as the
current workaround is already defunct because of aformentioned
inconsistencies.
In addition to AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, give userspace the ability to use
AT_EMPTY_PATH with fchmodat2(). This is already possible with
fchownat() so there's no reason to not also support it for
fchmodat2().
The implementation is simple and comes with selftests. Implementation
of the system call and wiring up the system call are done as separate
patches even though they could arguably be one patch. But in case
there are merge conflicts from other system call additions it can be
beneficial to have separate patches"

Pull vfs timestamp updates from Christian Brauner:
"This adds VFS support for multi-grain timestamps and converts tmpfs,
xfs, ext4, and btrfs to use them. This carries acks from all relevant
filesystems.
The VFS always uses coarse-grained timestamps when updating the ctime
and mtime after a change. This has the benefit of allowing filesystems
to optimize away a lot of metadata updates, down to around 1 per
jiffy, even when a file is under heavy writes.
Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting via
NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of changes
can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to help the
client decide to invalidate the cache.
Even with NFSv4, a lot of exported filesystems don't properly support
a change attribute and are subject to the same problems with timestamp
granularity. Other applications have similar issues with timestamps
(e.g., backup applications).
If we were to always use fine-grained timestamps, that would improve
the situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the underlying
filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata updates.
This introduces fine-grained timestamps that are used when they are
actively queried.
This uses the 31st bit of the ctime tv_nsec field to indicate that
something has queried the inode for the mtime or ctime. When this flag
is set, on the next mtime or ctime update, the kernel will fetch a
fine-grained timestamp instead of the usual coarse-grained one.
As POSIX generally mandates that when the mtime changes, the ctime
must also change the kernel always stores normalized ctime values, so
only the first 30 bits of the tv_nsec field are ever used.
Filesytems can opt into this behavior by setting the FS_MGTIME flag in
the fstype. Filesystems that don't set this flag will continue to use
coarse-grained timestamps.
Various preparatory changes, fixes and cleanups are included:
- Fixup all relevant places where POSIX requires updating ctime
together with mtime. This is a wide-range of places and all
maintainers provided necessary Acks.
- Add new accessors for inode->i_ctime directly and change all
callers to rely on them. Plain accesses to inode->i_ctime are now
gone and it is accordingly rename to inode->__i_ctime and commented
as requiring accessors.
- Extend generic_fillattr() to pass in a request mask mirroring in a
sense the statx() uapi. This allows callers to pass in a request
mask to only get a subset of attributes filled in.
- Rework timestamp updates so it's possible to drop the @now
parameter the update_time() inode operation and associated helpers.
- Add inode_update_timestamps() and convert all filesystems to it
removing a bunch of open-coding"

This is a port of commit 379eb01c21795edb4c ("riscv: Ensure the value
of FP registers in the core dump file is up to date").
The values of FP/SIMD registers in the core dump file come from the
thread.fpu. However, kernel saves the FP/SIMD registers only before
scheduling out the process. If no process switch happens during the
exception handling, kernel will not have a chance to save the latest
values of FP/SIMD registers. So it may cause their values in the core
dump file incorrect. To solve this problem, force fpr_get()/simd_get()
to save the FP/SIMD registers into the thread.fpu if the target task
equals the current task.

Pull RISC-V fixes from Palmer Dabbelt:
"This is obviously not ideal, particularly for something this late in
the cycle.
Unfortunately we found some uABI issues in the vector support while
reviewing the GDB port, which has triggered a revert -- probably a
good sign we should have reviewed GDB before merging this, I guess I
just dropped the ball because I was so worried about the context
extension and libc suff I forgot. Hence the late revert.
There's some risk here as we're still exposing the vector context for
signal handlers, but changing that would have meant reverting all of
the vector support. The issues we've found so far have been fixed
already and they weren't absolute showstoppers, so we're essentially
just playing it safe by holding ptrace support for another release (or
until we get through a proper userspace code review).
Summary:
- The vector ucontext extension has been extended with vlenb
- The vector registers ELF core dump note type has been changed to
avoid aliasing with the CSR type used in embedded systems
- Support for accessing vector registers via ptrace() has been
reverted
- Another build fix for the ISA spec changes around Zifencei/Zicsr

The initial aim is to silence the following objtool warning:
arch/loongarch/kernel/process.o: warning: objtool: arch_cpu_idle_dead() falls through to next function start_thread()
According to tools/objtool/Documentation/objtool.txt, this is because
the last instruction of arch_cpu_idle_dead() is a call to a noreturn
function play_dead(). In order to silence the warning, one simple way
is to add the noreturn function play_dead() to objtool's hard-coded
global_noreturns array, that is to say, just put "NORETURN(play_dead)"
into tools/objtool/noreturns.h, it works well.
But I noticed that play_dead() is only defined once and only called by
arch_cpu_idle_dead(), so put the body of play_dead() into the caller
arch_cpu_idle_dead(), then remove the noreturn function play_dead() is
an alternative way which can reduce the overhead of the function call
at the same time.

as, through a debugger, the fault may have been fixed. It makes sense

As explained by Nick in the original issue: the kernel usually does a
good job of providing library helpers that have similar semantics as
their ordinary userspace libc equivalents, but -ffreestanding disables
such libcall optimization and other related features in the compiler,
which can lead to unexpected things such as CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE not
working (!).
However, due to the desire for better control over unaligned accesses
with respect to CONFIG_ARCH_STRICT_ALIGN, and also for avoiding the
GCC bug https://gcc.gnu.org/PR109465, we do want to still disable
optimizations for the memory libcalls (memcpy, memmove and memset for
now). Use finer-grained -fno-builtin-* toggles to achieve this without
losing source fortification and other libcall optimizations.

enc_dec_hypercall() accepted a page count instead of a size, which
forced its callers to round up. As a result, non-page aligned
vaddrs caused pages to be spuriously marked as decrypted via the
encryption status hypercall, which in turn caused consistent
corruption of pages during live migration. Live migration requires
accurate encryption status information to avoid migrating pages
from the wrong perspective.

the following error occurs:
Assembler messages:

So fix this by change the GCC version in

strscpy()
`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1].
A suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it
guarantees NUL-termination on its destination buffer argument which is
_not_ the case for `strncpy`!
In this case, it means we can drop the `...-1` from:
| strncpy(to, from, len-1);
as well as remove the comment mentioning NUL-termination as `strscpy`
implicitly grants us this behavior.
There should be no functional change as I don't believe the padding from
`strncpy` is needed here. If it turns out that the padding is necessary
we should use `strscpy_pad` as a direct replacement.

destination strings [1].
A suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it
guarantees NUL-termination on its destination buffer argument which is
_not_ the case for `strncpy` or `strcpy`!
In this case, we can drop both the forced NUL-termination and the `... -1` from:

as `strscpy` implicitly has this behavior.
Also include slight refactor to code removing possible new-line chars as
per Yang Yang's work at [3]. This reduces code size and complexity by
using more robust and better understood interfaces.

0-Day found a 34.6% regression in stress-ng's 'af-alg' test case, and
bisected it to commit b81fac906a8f ("x86/fpu: Move FPU initialization into
arch_cpu_finalize_init()"), which optimizes the FPU init order, and moves
the CR4_OSXSAVE enabling into a later place:
arch_cpu_finalize_init
identify_boot_cpu
identify_cpu
generic_identify
get_cpu_cap --> setup cpu capability
...
fpu__init_cpu
fpu__init_cpu_xstate
cr4_set_bits(X86_CR4_OSXSAVE);
As the FPU is not yet initialized the CPU capability setup fails to set
X86_FEATURE_OSXSAVE. Many security module like 'camellia_aesni_avx_x86_64'
depend on this feature and therefore fail to load, causing the regression.
Cure this by setting X86_FEATURE_OSXSAVE feature right after OSXSAVE
enabling.

The thread flag TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD indicates that the FPU saved state is
valid and should be reloaded when returning to userspace. However, the
kernel will skip doing this if the FPU registers are already valid as
determined by fpregs_state_valid(). The logic embedded there considers
the state valid if two cases are both true:
1: fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx points to the current tasks FPU state
2: the last CPU the registers were live in was the current CPU.
This is usually correct logic. A CPU’s fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx is set to
the current FPU during the fpregs_restore_userregs() operation, so it
indicates that the registers have been restored on this CPU. But this
alone doesn’t preclude that the task hasn’t been rescheduled to a
different CPU, where the registers were modified, and then back to the
current CPU. To verify that this was not the case the logic relies on the
second condition. So the assumption is that if the registers have been
restored, AND they haven’t had the chance to be modified (by being
loaded on another CPU), then they MUST be valid on the current CPU.
Besides the lazy FPU optimizations, the other cases where the FPU
registers might not be valid are when the kernel modifies the FPU register
state or the FPU saved buffer. In this case the operation modifying the
FPU state needs to let the kernel know the correspondence has been
broken. The comment in “arch/x86/kernel/fpu/context.h” has:
/*
...
* If the FPU register state is valid, the kernel can skip restoring the
* FPU state from memory.
*
* Any code that clobbers the FPU registers or updates the in-memory
* FPU state for a task MUST let the rest of the kernel know that the
* FPU registers are no longer valid for this task.
*
* Either one of these invalidation functions is enough. Invalidate
* a resource you control: CPU if using the CPU for something else
* (with preemption disabled), FPU for the current task, or a task that
* is prevented from running by the current task.
*/
However, this is not completely true. When the kernel modifies the
registers or saved FPU state, it can only rely on
__fpu_invalidate_fpregs_state(), which wipes the FPU’s last_cpu
tracking. The exec path instead relies on fpregs_deactivate(), which sets
the CPU’s FPU context to NULL. This was observed to fail to restore the
reset FPU state to the registers when returning to userspace in the
following scenario:
1. A task is executing in userspace on CPU0
- CPU0’s FPU context points to tasks
- fpu->last_cpu=CPU0
2. The task exec()’s
3. While in the kernel the task is preempted
- CPU0 gets a thread executing in the kernel (such that no other
FPU context is activated)
- Scheduler sets task’s fpu->last_cpu=CPU0 when scheduling out
4. Task is migrated to CPU1
5. Continuing the exec(), the task gets to
fpu_flush_thread()->fpu_reset_fpregs()
- Sets CPU1’s fpu context to NULL
- Copies the init state to the task’s FPU buffer
- Sets TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD on the task
6. The task reschedules back to CPU0 before completing the exec() and
returning to userspace
- During the reschedule, scheduler finds TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD is set
- Skips saving the registers and updating task’s fpu→last_cpu,
because TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD is the canonical source.
7. Now CPU0’s FPU context is still pointing to the task’s, and
fpu->last_cpu is still CPU0. So fpregs_state_valid() returns true even
though the reset FPU state has not been restored.
So the root cause is that exec() is doing the wrong kind of invalidate. It
should reset fpu->last_cpu via __fpu_invalidate_fpregs_state(). Further,
fpu__drop() doesn't really seem appropriate as the task (and FPU) are not
going away, they are just getting reset as part of an exec. So switch to
__fpu_invalidate_fpregs_state().
Also, delete the misleading comment that says that either kind of
invalidate will be enough, because it’s not always the case.

Andy Chiu <andy.chiu@sifive.com> says:
We add a vlenb field in Vector context and save it with the
riscv_vstate_save() macro. It should not cause performance regression as
VLENB is a design-time constant and is frequently used by hardware.
Also, adding this field into the __sc_riscv_v_state may benifit us on a
future compatibility issue becuse a hardware may have writable VLENB.
Adding and saving VLENB have an immediate benifit as it gives ptrace a
better view of the Vector extension and makes it possible to reconstruct
Vector register files from the dump without doing an additional csr read.
This patchset also sync the number of note types between us and gdb for
riscv to solve a conflicting note.
This is not an ABI break given that 6.5 has not been released yet.

Use the builtin_misc_device macro to simplify the code, which is the same
as declaring with device_initcall().

Tony Krowiak says:
===================
This patch series is for the changes required in the vfio_ap device
driver to facilitate pass-through of crypto devices to a secure
execution guest. In particular, it is critical that no data from the
queues passed through to the SE guest is leaked when the guest is
destroyed. There are also some new response codes returned from the
PQAP(ZAPQ) and PQAP(TAPQ) commands that have been added to the
architecture in support of pass-through of crypto devices to SE guests;
these need to be accounted for when handling the reset of queues.

VLENB is critical for callers of ptrace to reconstruct Vector register
files from the register dump of NT_RISCV_VECTOR. Also, future systems
may will have a writable VLENB, so add it now to potentially save future
compatibility issue.

We've found two bugs here: NT_RISCV_VECTOR steps on NT_RISCV_CSR (which
is only for embedded), and we don't have vlenb in the core dumps. Given
that we've have a pair of bugs croup up as part of the GDB review we've
probably got other issues, so let's just cut this for 6.5 and get it
right.

__efi_call_virt() exists as an alternative for efi_call_virt() for the
sole reason that ResetSystem() returns void, and so we cannot use a call
to it in the RHS of an assignment.
Given that there is only a single user, let's drop the macro, and expand
it into the caller. That way, the remaining macro can be tightened
somewhat in terms of type safety too.
Note that the use of typeof() on the runtime service invocation does not
result in an actual call being made, but it does require a few pointer
types to be fixed up and converted into the proper function pointer
prototypes.

walk_page_range() and friends often operate under write-locked mmap_lock.
With introduction of vma locks, the vmas have to be locked as well during
such walks to prevent concurrent page faults in these areas. Add an
additional member to mm_walk_ops to indicate locking requirements for the
walk.
The change ensures that page walks which prevent concurrent page faults
by write-locking mmap_lock, operate correctly after introduction of
per-vma locks. With per-vma locks page faults can be handled under vma
lock without taking mmap_lock at all, so write locking mmap_lock would
not stop them. The change ensures vmas are properly locked during such
walks.
A sample issue this solves is do_mbind() performing queue_pages_range()
to queue pages for migration. Without this change a concurrent page
can be faulted into the area and be left out of migration.

Only the arch_efi_call_virt() macro that some architectures override
needs to be a macro, given that it is variadic and encapsulates calls
via function pointers that have different prototypes.
The associated setup and teardown code are not special in this regard,
and don't need to be instantiated at each call site. So turn them into
ordinary C functions and move them out of line.
