const qualify the struct ctl_table argument in the proc_handler function
signatures. This is a prerequisite to moving the static ctl_table
structs into .rodata data which will ensure that proc_handler function
pointers cannot be modified.

* Code formatting was adjusted in xfs_sysctl.c to comply with code
conventions. The xfs_stats_clear_proc_handler,
xfs_panic_mask_proc_handler and xfs_deprecated_dointvec_minmax where
adjusted.
* The ctl_table argument in proc_watchdog_common was const qualified.
This is called from a proc_handler itself and is calling back into
another proc_handler, making it necessary to change it as part of the
proc_handler migration.

Move boundary checking for proc_dou8ved_minmax into module loading, thereby
reporting errors in advance. And add a kunit test case ensuring the
boundary check is done correctly.
The boundary check in proc_dou8vec_minmax done to the extra elements in
the ctl_table struct is currently performed at runtime. This allows buggy
kernel modules to be loaded normally without any errors only to fail
when used.
This is a buggy example module:
#include <linux/kernel.h>
#include <linux/module.h>
#include <linux/sysctl.h>
static struct ctl_table_header *_table_header = NULL;
static unsigned char _data = 0;
struct ctl_table table[] = {
{
.procname = "foo",
.data = &_data,
.maxlen = sizeof(u8),
.mode = 0644,
.proc_handler = proc_dou8vec_minmax,
.extra1 = SYSCTL_ZERO,
.extra2 = SYSCTL_ONE_THOUSAND,
},
};
static int init_demo(void) {
_table_header = register_sysctl("kernel", table);
if (!_table_header)
return -ENOMEM;
return 0;
}
module_init(init_demo);
MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");
And this is the result:
# insmod test.ko
# cat /proc/sys/kernel/foo
cat: /proc/sys/kernel/foo: Invalid argument

Currently ftrace only dumps the global trace buffer on an OOPs. For
debugging a production usecase, instance trace will be helpful to
check specific problems since global trace buffer may be used for
other purposes.
This patch extend the ftrace_dump_on_oops parameter to dump a specific
or multiple trace instances:
- ftrace_dump_on_oops=0: as before -- don't dump
- ftrace_dump_on_oops[=1]: as before -- dump the global trace buffer
on all CPUs
- ftrace_dump_on_oops=2 or =orig_cpu: as before -- dump the global
trace buffer on CPU that triggered the oops
- ftrace_dump_on_oops=<instance_name>: new behavior -- dump the
tracing instance matching <instance_name>
- ftrace_dump_on_oops[=2/orig_cpu],<instance1_name>[=2/orig_cpu],
<instrance2_name>[=2/orig_cpu]: new behavior -- dump the global trace
buffer and multiple instance buffer on all CPUs, or only dump on CPU
that triggered the oops if =2 or =orig_cpu is given
Also, the sysctl node can handle the input accordingly.

hexagon: Remove unusable symbols from the ptrace.h uapi

syscalls: Cleanup references to sys_lookup_dcookie()
Documentation: Drop or replace remaining mentions of IA64
lib/raid6: Drop IA64 support
Documentation: Drop IA64 from feature descriptions
kernel: Drop IA64 support from sig_fault handlers
arch: Remove Itanium (IA-64) architecture
The Itanium architecture is obsolete, and an informal survey [0] reveals
that any residual use of Itanium hardware in production is mostly HP-UX
or OpenVMS based. The use of Linux on Itanium appears to be limited to
enthusiasts that occasionally boot a fresh Linux kernel to see whether
things are still working as intended, and perhaps to churn out some
distro packages that are rarely used in practice.
None of the original companies behind Itanium still produce or support
any hardware or software for the architecture, and it is listed as
'Orphaned' in the MAINTAINERS file, as apparently, none of the engineers
that contributed on behalf of those companies (nor anyone else, for that
matter) have been willing to support or maintain the architecture
upstream or even be responsible for applying the odd fix. The Intel
firmware team removed all IA-64 support from the Tianocore/EDK2
reference implementation of EFI in 2018. (Itanium is the original
architecture for which EFI was developed, and the way Linux supports it
deviates significantly from other architectures.) Some distros, such as
Debian and Gentoo, still maintain [unofficial] ia64 ports, but many have
dropped support years ago.
While the argument is being made [1] that there is a 'for the common
good' angle to being able to build and run existing projects such as the
Grid Community Toolkit [2] on Itanium for interoperability testing, the
fact remains that none of those projects are known to be deployed on
Linux/ia64, and very few people actually have access to such a system in
the first place. Even if there were ways imaginable in which Linux/ia64
could be put to good use today, what matters is whether anyone is
actually doing that, and this does not appear to be the case.
There are no emulators widely available, and so boot testing Itanium is
generally infeasible for ordinary contributors. GCC still supports IA-64
but its compile farm [3] no longer has any IA-64 machines. GLIBC would
like to get rid of IA-64 [4] too because it would permit some overdue
code cleanups. In summary, the benefits to the ecosystem of having IA-64
be part of it are mostly theoretical, whereas the maintenance overhead
of keeping it supported is real.
So let's rip off the band aid, and remove the IA-64 arch code entirely.
This follows the timeline proposed by the Debian/ia64 maintainer [5],
which removes support in a controlled manner, leaving IA-64 in a known
good state in the most recent LTS release. Other projects will follow
once the kernel support is removed.

The changes queued up for v6.5-rc1 for sysctl are in line with
prior efforts to stop usage of deprecated routines which incur
recursion and also make it hard to remove the empty array element
in each sysctl array declaration. The most difficult user to modify
was parport which required a bit of re-thinking of how to declare shared
sysctls there, Joel Granados has stepped up to the plate to do most of
this work and eventual removal of register_sysctl_table(). That work
ended up saving us about 1465 bytes according to bloat-o-meter. Since
we gained a few bloat-o-meter karma points I moved two rather small
sysctl arrays from kernel/sysctl.c leaving us only two more sysctl
arrays to move left.
Most changes have been tested on linux-next for about a month. The last
straggler patches are a minor parport fix, changes to the sysctl
kernel selftest so to verify correctness and prevent regressions for
the future change he made to provide an alternative solution for the
special sysctl mount point target which was using the now deprecated
sysctl child element.
This is all prep work to now finally be able to remove the empty
array element in all sysctl declarations / registrations which is
expected to save us a bit of bytes all over the kernel. That work
will be tested early after v6.5-rc1 is out.

The empty dev table has been in place since the v2.5.0 days because
back then ordering was essentialy. But later commit 7ec66d0636
("sysctl: Stop requiring explicit management of sysctl directories"),
merged as of v3.4-rc1, the entire ordering of directories was replaced
by allowing sysctl directory autogeneration. This new mechanism
introduced on v3.4 allows for sysctl directories to automatically be
created for sysctl tables when they are needed and automatically removes
them when no sysctl tables use them. That commit also added a dedicated
struct ctl_dir as a new type for these autogenerated directories.

This is part of the general push to deprecate register_sysctl_paths and
register_sysctl_table. The old way of doing this through
register_sysctl_base and DECLARE_SYSCTL_BASE macro is replaced with a
call to register_sysctl_init. The 5 base paths affected are: "kernel",
"vm", "debug", "dev" and "fs".
We remove the register_sysctl_base function and the DECLARE_SYSCTL_BASE
macro since they are no longer needed.

Currently proc_dobool expects a (bool *) in table->data, but sizeof(int)
in table->maxsize, because it uses do_proc_dointvec() directly.
This is unsafe for at least two reasons:
1. A sysctl table definition may use { .data = &variable, .maxsize =
sizeof(variable) }, not realizing that this makes the sysctl unusable
(see the Fixes: tag) and that they need to use the completely
counterintuitive sizeof(int) instead.
2. proc_dobool() will currently try to parse an array of values if given
.maxsize >= 2*sizeof(int), but will try to write values of type bool
by offsets of sizeof(int), so it will not work correctly with neither
an (int *) nor a (bool *). There is no .maxsize validation to prevent
this.
Fix this by:
1. Constraining proc_dobool() to allow only one value and .maxsize ==
sizeof(bool).
2. Wrapping the original struct ctl_table in a temporary one with .data
pointing to a local int variable and .maxsize set to sizeof(int) and
passing this one to proc_dointvec(), converting the value to/from
bool as needed (using proc_dou8vec_minmax() as an example).
3. Extending sysctl_check_table() to enforce proc_dobool() expectations.
4. Fixing the proc_dobool() docstring (it was just copy-pasted from
proc_douintvec, apparently...).
5. Converting all existing proc_dobool() users to set .maxsize to
sizeof(bool) instead of sizeof(int).

sched: Move numa_balancing sysctls to its own file
proc_skip_spaces() seems to think it is working on C strings, and ends
up being just a wrapper around skip_spaces() with a really odd calling
convention.
Instead of basing it on skip_spaces(), it should have looked more like
proc_skip_char(), which really is the exact same function (except it
skips a particular character, rather than whitespace). So use that as
inspiration, odd coding and all.
Now the calling convention actually makes sense and works for the
intended purpose.

proc_get_long() is passed a size_t, but then assigns it to an 'int'

In NUMA balancing memory tiering mode, if there are hot pages in slow
memory node and cold pages in fast memory node, we need to promote/demote
hot/cold pages between the fast and cold memory nodes.
A choice is to promote/demote as fast as possible. But the CPU cycles and
memory bandwidth consumed by the high promoting/demoting throughput will
hurt the latency of some workload because of accessing inflating and slow
memory bandwidth contention.
A way to resolve this issue is to restrict the max promoting/demoting
throughput. It will take longer to finish the promoting/demoting. But
the workload latency will be better. This is implemented in this patch as
the page promotion rate limit mechanism.
The number of the candidate pages to be promoted to the fast memory node
via NUMA balancing is counted, if the count exceeds the limit specified by
the users, the NUMA balancing promotion will be stopped until the next
second.
A new sysctl knob kernel.numa_balancing_promote_rate_limit_MBps is added
for the users to specify the limit.

proc_dointvec_minmax() itself is tolerant to a data-race, but we still
need to add annotations on the other subsystem's side.

A sysctl variable is accessed concurrently, and there is always a chance
of data-race. So, all readers and writers need some basic protection to
avoid load/store-tearing.

For two kernel releases now kernel/sysctl.c has been being cleaned up
slowly, since the tables were grossly long, sprinkled with tons of #ifdefs and
all this caused merge conflicts with one susbystem or another.
This tree was put together to help try to avoid conflicts with these cleanups
going on different trees at time. So nothing exciting on this pull request,
just cleanups.
I actually had this sysctl-next tree up since v5.18 but I missed sending a
pull request for it on time during the last merge window. And so these changes
have been being soaking up on sysctl-next and so linux-next for a while.
The last change was merged May 4th.
Most of the compile issues were reported by 0day and fixed.
To help avoid a conflict with bpf folks at Daniel Borkmann's request
I merged bpf-next/pr/bpf-sysctl into sysctl-next to get the effor which
moves the BPF sysctls from kernel/sysctl.c to BPF core.
Possible merge conflicts and known resolutions as per linux-next:

Core
----
- Support TCPv6 segmentation offload with super-segments larger than
64k bytes using the IPv6 Jumbogram extension header (AKA BIG TCP).
- Generalize skb freeing deferral to per-cpu lists, instead of
per-socket lists.
- Add a netdev statistic for packets dropped due to L2 address
mismatch (rx_otherhost_dropped).
- Continue work annotating skb drop reasons.
- Accept alternative netdev names (ALT_IFNAME) in more netlink
requests.
- Add VLAN support for AF_PACKET SOCK_RAW GSO.
- Allow receiving skb mark from the socket as a cmsg.
- Enable memcg accounting for veth queues, sysctl tables and IPv6.
BPF
---
- Add libbpf support for User Statically-Defined Tracing (USDTs).
- Speed up symbol resolution for kprobes multi-link attachments.

- Introduce access to remote CPU map elements in BPF per-cpu map.
- Allow middle-of-the-road settings for the
kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled sysctl.
- Implement basic types of dynamic pointers e.g. to allow for
dynamically sized ringbuf reservations without extra memory copies.
Protocols
---------
- Retire port only listening_hash table, add a second bind table
hashed by port and address. Avoid linear list walk when binding
to very popular ports (e.g. 443).
- Add bridge FDB bulk flush filtering support allowing user space
to remove all FDB entries matching a condition.

This move the kernel/kexec_core.c respective sysctls to its own file.
kernel/sysctl.c has grown to an insane mess, We move sysctls to places
where features actually belong to improve the readability and reduce
merge conflicts. At the same time, the proc-sysctl maintainers can easily
care about the core logic other than the sysctl knobs added for some feature.
We already moved all filesystem sysctls out. This patch is part of the effort
to move kexec related sysctls out.
