x86/resctrl: Add tracepoint for llc_occupancy tracking
In our production environment, after removing monitor groups, those unused RMIDs get stuck in the limbo list forever because their llc_occupancy is always larger than the threshold. But the unused RMIDs can be successfully freed by turning up the threshold. In order to know how much the threshold should be, perf can be used to acquire the llc_occupancy of RMIDs in each rdt domain. Instead of using perf tool to track llc_occupancy and filter the log manually, it is more convenient for users to use tracepoint to do this work. So add a new tracepoint that shows the llc_occupancy of busy RMIDs when scanning the limbo list.

Documentation/x86: Document that resctrl bandwidth control units are MiB
The memory bandwidth software controller uses 2^20 units rather than 10^6. See mbm_bw_count() which computes bandwidth using the "SZ_1M" Linux define for 0x00100000. Update the documentation to use MiB when describing this feature. It's too late to fix the mount option "mba_MBps" as that is now an established user interface.

Core x86 changes for v6.9:
- The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code,
to support the 'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature,
by Uros Bizjak:
- This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative
memory via variables declared with such attributes,
which allows the compiler to better optimize those accesses
than the previous inline assembly code.
- The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations
for various percpu access methods, plus a number of
cleanups of %gs accesses in assembly code.
- These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for
the last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.
- Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally
working handling of FPU switching - which also generates
better code.
- Propagate more RIP-relative addressing in assembly code,
to generate slightly better code.
- Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic,
to make it easier for distros to follow & maintain these options.
- Rework the x86 idle code to cure RCU violations and
to clean up the logic.
- Clean up the vDSO Makefile logic.
- Misc cleanups and fixes.
[ Please note that there's a higher number of merge commits in
this branch (three) than is usual in x86 topic trees. This happened
due to the long testing lifecycle of the percpu changes that
involved 3 merge windows, which generated a longer history
and various interactions with other core x86 changes that we
felt better about to carry in a single branch. ]

Support for x86 Fast Return and Event Delivery (FRED):
FRED is a replacement for IDT event delivery on x86 and addresses most of
the technical nightmares which IDT exposes:
1) Exception cause registers like CR2 need to be manually preserved in
nested exception scenarios.
2) Hardware interrupt stack switching is suboptimal for nested exceptions
as the interrupt stack mechanism rewinds the stack on each entry which
requires a massive effort in the low level entry of #NMI code to handle
this.
3) No hardware distinction between entry from kernel or from user which
makes establishing kernel context more complex than it needs to be
especially for unconditionally nestable exceptions like NMI.
4) NMI nesting caused by IRET unconditionally reenabling NMIs, which is a
problem when the perf NMI takes a fault when collecting a stack trace.
5) Partial restore of ESP when returning to a 16-bit segment
6) Limitation of the vector space which can cause vector exhaustion on
large systems.
7) Inability to differentiate NMI sources
FRED addresses these shortcomings by:
1) An extended exception stack frame which the CPU uses to save exception
cause registers. This ensures that the meta information for each
exception is preserved on stack and avoids the extra complexity of
preserving it in software.
2) Hardware interrupt stack switching is non-rewinding if a nested
exception uses the currently interrupt stack.
3) The entry points for kernel and user context are separate and GS BASE
handling which is required to establish kernel context for per CPU
variable access is done in hardware.
4) NMIs are now nesting protected. They are only reenabled on the return
from NMI.
5) FRED guarantees full restore of ESP
6) FRED does not put a limitation on the vector space by design because it
uses a central entry points for kernel and user space and the CPUstores
the entry type (exception, trap, interrupt, syscall) on the entry stack
along with the vector number. The entry code has to demultiplex this
information, but this removes the vector space restriction.
The first hardware implementations will still have the current
restricted vector space because lifting this limitation requires
further changes to the local APIC.
7) FRED stores the vector number and meta information on stack which
allows having more than one NMI vector in future hardware when the
required local APIC changes are in place.
The series implements the initial FRED support by:
- Reworking the existing entry and IDT handling infrastructure to
accomodate for the alternative entry mechanism.
- Expanding the stack frame to accomodate for the extra 16 bytes FRED
requires to store context and meta information
- Providing FRED specific C entry points for events which have information
pushed to the extended stack frame, e.g. #PF and #DB.
- Providing FRED specific C entry points for #NMI and #MCE
- Implementing the FRED specific ASM entry points and the C code to
demultiplex the events
- Providing detection and initialization mechanisms and the necessary
tweaks in context switching, GS BASE handling etc.
The FRED integration aims for maximum code reuse vs. the existing IDT
implementation to the extent possible and the deviation in hot paths like
context switching are handled with alternatives to minimalize the
impact. The low level entry and exit paths are seperate due to the extended
stack frame and the hardware based GS BASE swichting and therefore have no
impact on IDT based systems.
It has been extensively tested on existing systems and on the FRED
simulation and as of now there are know outstanding problems.

kexec: Allocate kernel above bzImage's pref_address
A relocatable kernel will relocate itself to pref_address if it is loaded below pref_address. This means a booted kernel may be relocating itself to an area with reserved memory on modern systems, potentially clobbering arbitrary data that may be important to the system. This is often the case, as the default value of PHYSICAL_START is 0x1000000 and kernels are typically loaded at 0x100000 or above by bootloaders like iPXE or kexec. GRUB behaves like the approach implemented here. Also fixes the documentation around pref_address and PHYSICAL_START to be accurate.

The VERW mitigation at exit-to-user is enabled via a static branch mds_user_clear. This static branch is never toggled after boot, and can be safely replaced with an ALTERNATIVE() which is convenient to use in asm.

This does not include the actual KVM-side support which will come from the KVM folks. The TDX host interactions with kexec also needs to be ironed out before this is ready for prime time, so this code is currently Kconfig'd off when kexec is on. The majority of the code here is the kernel telling the TDX module which memory to protect and handing some additional memory over to it to use to store TDX module metadata. That sounds pretty simple, but the TDX architecture is rather flexible and it takes quite a bit of back-and-forth to say, "just protect all memory, please." There is also some code tacked on near the end of the series to handle a hardware erratum. The erratum can make software bugs such as a kernel write to TDX-protected memory cause a machine check and masquerade as a real hardware failure.

- Some reworking of the Documentation/process front page to, hopefully,

- Various kernel-doc tweaks to, for example, make it deal properly with
__counted_by annotations.
- We have also restored a warning for documentation of nonexistent

bringing the documentation back into sync with the code. The fixes are

The kernel-feat directive passes its argument straight to the shell.
This is unfortunate and unnecessary.
Let's always use paths relative to $srctree/Documentation/ and use
subprocess.check_call() instead of subprocess.Popen(shell=True).
This also makes the code shorter.

docs: automarkup: linkify git revs
There aren't a ton of references to commits in the documentation, but
they do exist, and we can use automarkup to linkify them to make them
easier to follow.
Use something like this to find references to commits:
git grep -P 'commit.*[0-9a-f]{8,}' Documentation/
Also fix a few of these to standardize on the exact format that is
already used in changelogs.

x86/Documentation: Indent 'note::' directive for protocol version number note
The protocol version number note is between the protocol version table and
the memory layout section. As such, Sphinx renders the note directive not
only on the actual note, but until the end of doc.
Indent the directive so that only the actual protocol version number
note is rendered as such.

X86 core code updates:
- Limit the hardcoded topology quirk for Hygon CPUs to those which have a
model ID less than 4. The newer models have the topology CPUID leaf 0xB
correctly implemented and are not affected.
- Make SMT control more robust against enumeration failures
SMT control was added to allow controlling SMT at boottime or
runtime. The primary purpose was to provide a simple mechanism to
disable SMT in the light of speculation attack vectors.
It turned out that the code is sensible to enumeration failures and
worked only by chance for XEN/PV. XEN/PV has no real APIC enumeration
which means the primary thread mask is not set up correctly. By chance
a XEN/PV boot ends up with smp_num_siblings == 2, which makes the
hotplug control stay at its default value "enabled". So the mask is
never evaluated.
The ongoing rework of the topology evaluation caused XEN/PV to end up
with smp_num_siblings == 1, which sets the SMT control to "not
supported" and the empty primary thread mask causes the hotplug core to
deny the bringup of the APS.
Make the decision logic more robust and take 'not supported' and 'not
implemented' into account for the decision whether a CPU should be
booted or not.
- Fake primary thread mask for XEN/PV
Pretend that all XEN/PV vCPUs are primary threads, which makes the
usage of the primary thread mask valid on XEN/PV. That is consistent
with because all of the topology information on XEN/PV is fake or even
non-existent.
- Encapsulate topology information in cpuinfo_x86
Move the randomly scattered topology data into a separate data
structure for readability and as a preparatory step for the topology
evaluation overhaul.
- Consolidate APIC ID data type to u32
It's fixed width hardware data and not randomly u16, int, unsigned long
or whatever developers decided to use.
- Cure the abuse of cpuinfo for persisting logical IDs.
Per CPU cpuinfo is used to persist the logical package and die
IDs. That's really not the right place simply because cpuinfo is
subject to be reinitialized when a CPU goes through an offline/online
cycle.
Use separate per CPU data for the persisting to enable the further
topology management rework. It will be removed once the new topology
management is in place.
- Provide a debug interface for inspecting topology information
Useful in general and extremly helpful for validating the topology
management rework in terms of correctness or "bug" compatibility.

x86/resctrl: Display RMID of resource group
In x86, hardware uses RMID to identify a monitoring group. When a user creates a monitor group these details are not visible. These details can help resctrl debugging. Add RMID(mon_hw_id) to the monitor groups display in the resctrl interface. Users can see these details when resctrl is mounted with "-o debug" option. Add RFTYPE_MON_BASE that complements existing RFTYPE_CTRL_BASE and represents files belonging to monitoring groups. Other architectures do not use "RMID". Use the name mon_hw_id to refer to "RMID" in an effort to keep the naming generic.

x86/resctrl: Add multiple tasks to the resctrl group at once
The resctrl task assignment for monitor or control group needs to be done one at a time. For example: $mount -t resctrl resctrl /sys/fs/resctrl/ $mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1 $echo 123 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks $echo 456 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks $echo 789 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks This is not user-friendly when dealing with hundreds of tasks.

x86/cpu: Move cpu_l[l2]c_id into topology info
The topology IDs which identify the LLC and L2 domains clearly belong to the per CPU topology information. Move them into cpuinfo_x86::cpuinfo_topo and get rid of the extra per CPU data and the related exports. This also paves the way to do proper topology evaluation during early boot because it removes the only per CPU dependency for that. No functional change.

CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack part of this feature, and just for userspace. The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction, the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.
