f9899c0281 NUMA: early use of cpu_to_node() returns 0 instead of the correct node id
During the kernel booting, the generic cpu_to_node() is called too early
in arm64, powerpc and riscv when CONFIG_NUMA is enabled.

There are at least four places in the common code where
the generic cpu_to_node() is called before it is initialized:
	   1.) early_trace_init()         in kernel/trace/trace.c
	   2.) sched_init()               in kernel/sched/core.c
	   3.) init_sched_fair_class()    in kernel/sched/fair.c
	   4.) workqueue_init_early()     in kernel/workqueue.c

This will harm performance since there is an increase in off node
accesses.

In order to fix the bug, the patch introduces early_numa_node_init() which
is called after smp_prepare_boot_cpu() in start_kernel. 
early_numa_node_init will initialize the "numa_node" as soon as the
early_cpu_to_node() is ready, before the cpu_to_node() is called at the
first time.

212f863fa8 bootconfig: do not put quotes on cmdline items unless necessary
When trying to migrate to using bootconfig to embed the kernel's and
PID1's command line with the kernel image itself, and so allowing changing
that without modifying the bootloader, I noticed that /proc/cmdline
changed from e.g.

  console=ttymxc0,115200n8 cma=128M quiet -- --log-level=notice

to

  console="ttymxc0,115200n8" cma="128M" quiet -- --log-level="notice"

The kernel parameters are parsed just fine, and the quotes are indeed
stripped from the actual argv[] given to PID1.  However, the quoting
doesn't really serve any purpose and looks excessive, and might confuse
some (naive) userspace tool trying to parse /proc/cmdline.  So do not
quote the value unless it contains whitespace.

cd24bdb068 init/main.c: Remove redundant space from saved_command_line
There is a space at the end of extra_init_args. In the current logic,
copying extra_init_args to saved_command_line will cause extra spaces
in saved_command_line here or there. Remove the trailing space from
extra_init_args to make the string in saved_command_line look more perfect.

46dad3c1e5 init/main.c: Fix potential static_command_line memory overflow
We allocate memory of size 'xlen + strlen(boot_command_line) + 1' for
static_command_line, but the strings copied into static_command_line are
extra_command_line and command_line, rather than extra_command_line and
boot_command_line.

When strlen(command_line) > strlen(boot_command_line), static_command_line
will overflow.

This patch just recovers strlen(command_line) which was miss-consolidated
with strlen(boot_command_line) in the commit f5c7310ac7 ("init/main: add
checks for the return value of memblock_alloc*()")

c722cea208 fs/proc: Skip bootloader comment if no embedded kernel parameters
If the "bootconfig" kernel command-line argument was specified or if
the kernel was built with CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE, but if there are
no embedded kernel parameter, omit the "# Parameters from bootloader:"
comment from the /proc/bootconfig file.  This will cause automation
to fall back to the /proc/cmdline file, which will be identical to the

91a1d97ef4 jump_label,module: Don't alloc static_key_mod for __ro_after_init keys
When a static_key is marked ro_after_init, its state will never change
(after init), therefore jump_label_update() will never need to iterate
the entries, and thus module load won't actually need to track this --
avoiding the static_key::next write.

Therefore, mark these keys such that jump_label_add_module() might
recognise them and avoid the modification.

Use the special state: 'static_key_linked(key) && !static_key_mod(key)'
to denote such keys.

jump_label_add_module() does not exist under CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=n, so the
newly-introduced jump_label_init_ro() can be defined as a nop for that
configuration.

[ mingo: Renamed jump_label_ro() to jump_label_init_ro() ]

ca7e917769 Rework of APIC enumeration and topology evaluation:
The current implementation has a couple of shortcomings:
 
   - It fails to handle hybrid systems correctly.
 
   - The APIC registration code which handles CPU number assignents is in
     the middle of the APIC code and detached from the topology evaluation.
 
   - The various mechanisms which enumerate APICs, ACPI, MPPARSE and guest
     specific ones, tweak global variables as they see fit or in case of
     XENPV just hack around the generic mechanisms completely.
 
   - The CPUID topology evaluation code is sprinkled all over the vendor
     code and reevaluates global variables on every hotplug operation.
 
   - There is no way to analyze topology on the boot CPU before bringing up
     the APs. This causes problems for infrastructure like PERF which needs
     to size certain aspects upfront or could be simplified if that would be
     possible.
 
   - The APIC admission and CPU number association logic is incomprehensible
     and overly complex and needs to be kept around after boot instead of
     completing this right after the APIC enumeration.
 
 This update addresses these shortcomings with the following changes:
 
   - Rework the CPUID evaluation code so it is common for all vendors and
     provides information about the APIC ID segments in a uniform way
     independent of the number of segments (Thread, Core, Module, ..., Die,
     Package) so that this information can be computed instead of rewriting
     global variables of dubious value over and over.
 
   - A few cleanups and simplifcations of the APIC, IO/APIC and related
     interfaces to prepare for the topology evaluation changes.
 
   - Seperation of the parser stages so the early evaluation which tries to
     find the APIC address can be seperately overridden from the late
     evaluation which enumerates and registers the local APIC as further
     preparation for sanitizing the topology evaluation.
 
   - A new registration and admission logic which
 
      - encapsulates the inner workings so that parsers and guest logic
        cannot longer fiddle in it
 
      - uses the APIC ID segments to build topology bitmaps at registration
        time
 
      - provides a sane admission logic
 
      - allows to detect the crash kernel case, where CPU0 does not run on
        the real BSP, automatically. This is required to prevent sending
        INIT/SIPI sequences to the real BSP which would reset the whole
        machine. This was so far handled by a tedious command line
        parameter, which does not even work in nested crash scenarios.
 
      - Associates CPU number after the enumeration completed and prevents
        the late registration of APICs, which was somehow tolerated before.
 
   - Converting all parsers and guest enumeration mechanisms over to the
     new interfaces.
 
     This allows to get rid of all global variable tweaking from the parsers
     and enumeration mechanisms and sanitizes the XEN[PV] handling so it can
     use CPUID evaluation for the first time.
 
   - Mopping up existing sins by taking the information from the APIC ID
     segment bitmaps.
 
     This evaluates hybrid systems correctly on the boot CPU and allows for
     cleanups and fixes in the related drivers, e.g. PERF.
 
 The series has been extensively tested and the minimal late fallout due to
 a broken ACPI/MADT table has been addressed by tightening the admission
 logic further.

   - Seperation of the parser stages so the early evaluation which tries
     to find the APIC address can be seperately overridden from the late
     evaluation which enumerates and registers the local APIC as further
     preparation for sanitizing the topology evaluation.

   - A new registration and admission logic which

       - encapsulates the inner workings so that parsers and guest logic
         cannot longer fiddle in it

       - uses the APIC ID segments to build topology bitmaps at
         registration time

       - provides a sane admission logic

       - allows to detect the crash kernel case, where CPU0 does not run
         on the real BSP, automatically. This is required to prevent
         sending INIT/SIPI sequences to the real BSP which would reset
         the whole machine. This was so far handled by a tedious command
         line parameter, which does not even work in nested crash
         scenarios.

       - Associates CPU number after the enumeration completed and
         prevents the late registration of APICs, which was somehow
         tolerated before.

   - Converting all parsers and guest enumeration mechanisms over to the
     new interfaces.

     This allows to get rid of all global variable tweaking from the
     parsers and enumeration mechanisms and sanitizes the XEN[PV]
     handling so it can use CPUID evaluation for the first time.

   - Mopping up existing sins by taking the information from the APIC ID
     segment bitmaps.

     This evaluates hybrid systems correctly on the boot CPU and allows
     for cleanups and fixes in the related drivers, e.g. PERF.

  The series has been extensively tested and the minimal late fallout
  due to a broken ACPI/MADT table has been addressed by tightening the
  admission logic further"

ff887eb07c workqueue: Changes for v6.9
This cycle, a lot of workqueue changes including some that are significant
 and invasive.
 
 - During v6.6 cycle, unbound workqueues were updated so that they are more
   topology aware and flexible, which among other things improved workqueue
   behavior on modern multi-L3 CPUs. In the process, 636b927eba
   ("workqueue: Make unbound workqueues to use per-cpu pool_workqueues")
   switched unbound workqueues to use per-CPU frontend pool_workqueues as a
   part of increasing front-back mapping flexibility.
 
   An unwelcome side effect of this change was that this made max concurrency
   enforcement per-CPU blowing up the maximum number of allowed concurrent
   executions. I incorrectly assumed that this wouldn't cause practical
   problems as most unbound workqueue users are self-regulate max
   concurrency; however, there definitely are which don't (e.g. on IO paths)
   and the drastic increase in the allowed max concurrency led to noticeable
   perf regressions in some use cases.
 
   This is now addressed by separating out max concurrency enforcement to a
   separate struct - wq_node_nr_active - which makes @max_active consistently
   mean system-wide max concurrency regardless of the number of CPUs or
   (finally) NUMA nodes. This is a rather invasive and, in places, a bit
   clunky; however, the clunkiness rises from the the inherent requirement to
   handle the disagreement between the execution locality domain and max
   concurrency enforcement domain on some modern machines. See 5797b1c189
   ("workqueue: Implement system-wide nr_active enforcement for unbound

 - BH workqueue support is added. They are similar to per-CPU workqueues but

   enable work items which is needed to convert many tasklet users. To avoid
   crowding this merge window too much, this will be included in the next

8f8cd6c0a4 modules: wait do_free_init correctly
The synchronization here is to ensure the ordering of freeing of a module
init so that it happens before W+X checking.  It is worth noting it is not
that the freeing was not happening, it is just that our sanity checkers
raced against the permission checkers which assume init memory is already
gone.

Commit 1a7b7d9220 ("modules: Use vmalloc special flag") moved calling
do_free_init() into a global workqueue instead of relying on it being
called through call_rcu(..., do_free_init), which used to allowed us call
do_free_init() asynchronously after the end of a subsequent grace period. 
The move to a global workqueue broke the gaurantees for code which needed
to be sure the do_free_init() would complete with rcu_barrier().  To fix
this callers which used to rely on rcu_barrier() must now instead use
flush_work(&init_free_wq).

Without this fix, we still could encounter false positive reports in W+X
checking since the rcu_barrier() here can not ensure the ordering now.

Even worse, the rcu_barrier() can introduce significant delay.  Eric
Chanudet reported that the rcu_barrier introduces ~0.1s delay on a
PREEMPT_RT kernel.

  [    0.291444] Freeing unused kernel memory: 5568K
  [    0.402442] Run /sbin/init as init process

With this fix, the above delay can be eliminated.

pidfd: add pidfs
This moves pidfds from the anonymous inode infrastructure to a tiny
pseudo filesystem. This has been on my todo for quite a while as it will
unblock further work that we weren't able to do simply because of the
very justified limitations of anonymous inodes. Moving pidfds to a tiny
pseudo filesystem allows:

* statx() on pidfds becomes useful for the first time.
* pidfds can be compared simply via statx() and then comparing inode
  numbers.
* pidfds have unique inode numbers for the system lifetime.
* struct pid is now stashed in inode->i_private instead of
  file->private_data. This means it is now possible to introduce
  concepts that operate on a process once all file descriptors have been
  closed. A concrete example is kill-on-last-close.
* file->private_data is freed up for per-file options for pidfds.
* Each struct pid will refer to a different inode but the same struct
  pid will refer to the same inode if it's opened multiple times. In
  contrast to now where each struct pid refers to the same inode. Even
  if we were to move to anon_inode_create_getfile() which creates new
  inodes we'd still be associating the same struct pid with multiple
  different inodes.

The tiny pseudo filesystem is not visible anywhere in userspace exactly
like e.g., pipefs and sockfs. There's no lookup, there's no complex
inode operations, nothing. Dentries and inodes are always deleted when
the last pidfd is closed.

We allocate a new inode for each struct pid and we reuse that inode for
all pidfds. We use iget_locked() to find that inode again based on the
inode number which isn't recycled. We allocate a new dentry for each
pidfd that uses the same inode. That is similar to anonymous inodes
which reuse the same inode for thousands of dentries. For pidfds we're
talking way less than that. There usually won't be a lot of concurrent
openers of the same struct pid. They can probably often be counted on
two hands. I know that systemd does use separate pidfd for the same
struct pid for various complex process tracking issues. So I think with
that things actually become way simpler. Especially because we don't
have to care about lookup. Dentries and inodes continue to be always
deleted.

The code is entirely optional and fairly small. If it's not selected we
fallback to anonymous inodes. Heavily inspired by nsfs which uses a
similar stashing mechanism just for namespaces.

a5e8131a03 arm64, powerpc, riscv, s390, x86: ptdump: refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX
All architectures using the core ptdump functionality also implement
CONFIG_DEBUG_WX, and they all do it more or less the same way, with a
function called debug_checkwx() that is called by mark_rodata_ro(), which
is a substitute to ptdump_check_wx() when CONFIG_DEBUG_WX is set and a
no-op otherwise.

Refactor by centrally defining debug_checkwx() in linux/ptdump.h and call
debug_checkwx() immediately after calling mark_rodata_ro() instead of
calling it at the end of every mark_rodata_ro().

On x86_32, mark_rodata_ro() first checks __supported_pte_mask has _PAGE_NX
before calling debug_checkwx().  Now the check is inside the callee
ptdump_walk_pgd_level_checkwx().

On powerpc_64, mark_rodata_ro() bails out early before calling
ptdump_check_wx() when the MMU doesn't have KERNEL_RO feature.  The check
is now also done in ptdump_check_wx() as it is called outside
mark_rodata_ro().

bf52b1ac6a async: Use a dedicated unbound workqueue with raised min_active
Async can schedule a number of interdependent work items. However, since
5797b1c189 ("workqueue: Implement system-wide nr_active enforcement for
unbound workqueues"), unbound workqueues have separate min_active which sets
the number of interdependent work items that can be handled. This default
value is 8 which isn't sufficient for async and can lead to stalls during
resume from suspend in some cases.

Let's use a dedicated unbound workqueue with raised min_active.

2930155b2e workqueue: Initialize unbound CPU pods later in the boot
During boot, to initialize unbound CPU pods, wq_pod_init() was called from
workqueue_init(). This is early enough for NUMA nodes to be set up but
before SMP is brought up and CPU topology information is populated.

Workqueue is in the process of improving CPU locality for unbound workqueues
and will need access to topology information during pod init. This adds a
new init function workqueue_init_topology() which is called after CPU
topology information is available and replaces wq_pod_init().

As unbound CPU pods are now initialized after workqueues are activated, we
need to revisit the workqueues to apply the pod configuration. Workqueues
which are created before workqueue_init_topology() are set up so that they
always use the default worker pool. After pods are set up in
workqueue_init_topology(), wq_update_pod() is called on all existing
workqueues to update the pool associations accordingly.

Note that wq_update_pod_attrs_buf allocation is moved to
workqueue_init_early(). This isn't necessary right now but enables further
generalization of pod handling in the future.

This patch changes the initialization sequence but the end result should be
the same.

6f612579be objtool changes for v6.5:
- Build footprint & performance improvements:
 
     - Reduce memory usage with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y
 
       In the worst case of an allyesconfig+CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y kernel, DWARF
       creates almost 200 million relocations, ballooning objtool's peak heap
       usage to 53GB.  These patches reduce that to 25GB.
 
       On a distro-type kernel with kernel IBT enabled, they reduce objtool's
       peak heap usage from 4.2GB to 2.8GB.
 
       These changes also improve the runtime significantly.
 
 - Debuggability improvements:
 
     - Add the unwind_debug command-line option, for more extend unwinding
       debugging output.
     - Limit unreachable warnings to once per function
     - Add verbose option for disassembling affected functions
     - Include backtrace in verbose mode
     - Detect missing __noreturn annotations
     - Ignore exc_double_fault() __noreturn warnings
     - Remove superfluous global_noreturns entries
     - Move noreturn function list to separate file
     - Add __kunit_abort() to noreturns
 
 - Unwinder improvements:
 
     - Allow stack operations in UNWIND_HINT_UNDEFINED regions
     - drm/vmwgfx: Add unwind hints around RBP clobber
 
 - Cleanups:
 
     - Move the x86 entry thunk restore code into thunk functions
     - x86/unwind/orc: Use swap() instead of open coding it
     - Remove unnecessary/unused variables
 
 - Fixes for modern stack canary handling

9df9d2f047 init: Invoke arch_cpu_finalize_init() earlier
X86 is reworking the boot process so that initializations which are not
required during early boot can be moved into the late boot process and out
of the fragile and restricted initial boot phase.

arch_cpu_finalize_init() is the obvious place to do such initializations,
but arch_cpu_finalize_init() is invoked too late in start_kernel() e.g. for
initializing the FPU completely. fork_init() requires that the FPU is
initialized as the size of task_struct on X86 depends on the size of the
required FPU register buffer.

Fortunately none of the init calls between calibrate_delay() and
arch_cpu_finalize_init() is relevant for the functionality of
arch_cpu_finalize_init().

Invoke it right after calibrate_delay() where everything which is relevant
for arch_cpu_finalize_init() has been set up already.

No functional change intended.

7725acaa4f init: Provide arch_cpu_finalize_init()
check_bugs() has become a dumping ground for all sorts of activities to
finalize the CPU initialization before running the rest of the init code.

Most are empty, a few do actual bug checks, some do alternative patching
and some cobble a CPU advertisement string together....

Aside of that the current implementation requires duplicated function
declaration and mostly empty header files for them.

Provide a new function arch_cpu_finalize_init(). Provide a generic
declaration if CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPU_FINALIZE_INIT is selected and a stub
inline otherwise.

This requires a temporary #ifdef in start_kernel() which will be removed
along with check_bugs() once the architectures are converted over.

dc1d05536f start_kernel: Omit prevent_tail_call_optimization() for newer toolchains
prevent_tail_call_optimization() was added in
commit a9a3ed1eff ("x86: Fix early boot crash on gcc-10, third try")
to work around stack canaries getting inserted into functions that would
initialize the stack canary in the first place.

Now that we have no_stack_protector function attribute (gcc-11+,
clang-7+) and use it on start_kernel(), remove the call to
prevent_tail_call_optimization() such that we may one day remove it
outright.

514ca14ed5 start_kernel: Add __no_stack_protector function attribute
Back during the discussion of
commit a9a3ed1eff ("x86: Fix early boot crash on gcc-10, third try")
we discussed the need for a function attribute to control the omission
of stack protectors on a per-function basis; at the time Clang had
support for no_stack_protector but GCC did not. This was fixed in
gcc-11. Now that the function attribute is available, let's start using
it.

Callers of boot_init_stack_canary need to use this function attribute
unless they're compiled with -fno-stack-protector, otherwise the canary
stored in the stack slot of the caller will differ upon the call to
boot_init_stack_canary. This will lead to a call to __stack_chk_fail()
then panic.

Pull user work thread updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains the work generalizing the ability to create a kernel
  worker from a userspace process.

  Such user workers will run with the same credentials as the userspace
  process they were created from providing stronger security and
  accounting guarantees than the traditional override_creds() approach
  ever could've hoped for.

  The original work was heavily based and optimzed for the needs of
  io_uring which was the first user. However, as it quickly turned out
  the ability to create user workers inherting properties from a
  userspace process is generally useful.

  The vhost subsystem currently creates workers using the kthread api.
  The consequences of using the kthread api are that RLIMITs don't work
  correctly as they are inherited from khtreadd. This leads to bugs
  where more workers are created than would be allowed by the RLIMITs of
  the userspace process in lieu of which workers are created.

  Problems like this disappear with user workers created from the
  userspace processes for which they perform the work. In addition,
  providing this api allows vhost to remove additional complexity. For
  example, cgroup and mm sharing will just work out of the box with user
  workers based on the relevant userspace process instead of manually
  ensuring the correct cgroup and mm contexts are used.

  So the vhost subsystem should simply be made to use the same mechanism
  as io_uring. To this end the original mechanism used for
  create_io_thread() is generalized into user workers:

   - Introduce PF_USER_WORKER as a generic indicator that a given task
     is a user worker, i.e., a kernel task that was created from a
     userspace process. Now a PF_IO_WORKER thread is just a specialized
     version of PF_USER_WORKER. So io_uring io workers raise both flags.

   - Make copy_process() available to core kernel code

   - Extend struct kernel_clone_args with the following bitfields
     allowing to indicate to copy_process():
       - to create a user worker (raise PF_USER_WORKER)
       - to not inherit any files from the userspace process
       - to ignore signals

  After all generic changes are in place the vhost subsystem implements
  a new dedicated vhost api based on user workers. Finally, vhost is
  switched to rely on the new api moving it off of kthreads.

  Thanks to Mike for sticking it out and making it through this rather
  arduous journey"

e45e761b77 init: Call mem_encrypt_init() after Hyper-V hypercall init is done
Full Hyper-V initialization, including support for hypercalls, is done
as an apic_post_init callback via late_time_init().  mem_encrypt_init()
needs to make hypercalls when it marks swiotlb memory as decrypted.
But mem_encrypt_init() is currently called a few lines before
late_time_init(), so the hypercalls don't work.

Fix this by moving mem_encrypt_init() after late_time_init() and
related clock initializations. The intervening initializations don't
do any I/O that requires the swiotlb, so moving mem_encrypt_init()
slightly later has no impact.

   vm_flags handling in the series "introduce vm_flags modifier
   functions".

 - Some pagemap cleanup and generalization work in Mike Rapoport's
   series "mm, arch: add generic implementation of pfn_valid() for
   FLATMEM" and "fixups for generic implementation of pfn_valid()"

 - Baoquan He has done some work to make /proc/vmallocinfo and
   /proc/kcore better represent the real state of things in his series

   printing warnings when people use the debugfs interface. See the
   series "mm/damon: deprecate DAMON debugfs interface".

 - Andrey Konovalov provided the accurately named "lib/stackdepot: fixes
   and clean-ups" series.
