Commit ed5cc702d3 ("block: Add config option to not allow writing to mounted
devices") added a Kconfig option along with a kernel command-line tuning to
control writes to mounted block devices, as a means to deal with fuzzers like
Syzkaller, that provokes kernel crashes by directly writing on block devices
bypassing the filesystem (so the FS has no awareness and cannot cope with that).
The patch just missed adding such kernel command-line option to the kernel
documentation, so let's fix that.

This is done primarily to get a docs build fix merged via another tree so
that "make htmldocs" stops failing.
Add support for the Extron DA HD 4K Plus series of 4K HDMI
Distrubution Amplifiers (aka HDMI Splitters).
These devices support CEC and this driver adds support for the
CEC protocol for both the input and all outputs (2, 4 or 6 outputs,
depending on the model).
It also exports the EDID from the outputs and allows reading and

Add an on-by-default module param, enable_virt_at_load, to let userspace
force virtualization to be enabled in hardware when KVM is initialized,
i.e. just before /dev/kvm is exposed to userspace. Enabling virtualization
during KVM initialization allows userspace to avoid the additional latency
when creating/destroying the first/last VM (or more specifically, on the
0=>1 and 1=>0 edges of creation/destruction).
Now that KVM uses the cpuhp framework to do per-CPU enabling, the latency
could be non-trivial as the cpuhup bringup/teardown is serialized across
CPUs, e.g. the latency could be problematic for use case that need to spin
up VMs quickly.
Prior to commit 10474ae894 ("KVM: Activate Virtualization On Demand"),
KVM _unconditionally_ enabled virtualization during load, i.e. there's no
fundamental reason KVM needs to dynamically toggle virtualization. These
days, the only known argument for not enabling virtualization is to allow
KVM to be autoloaded without blocking other out-of-tree hypervisors, and
such use cases can simply change the module param, e.g. via command line.
Note, the aforementioned commit also mentioned that enabling SVM (AMD's
virtualization extensions) can result in "using invalid TLB entries".
It's not clear whether the changelog was referring to a KVM bug, a CPU
bug, or something else entirely. Regardless, leaving virtualization off
by default is not a robust "fix", as any protection provided is lost the
instant userspace creates the first VM.

The ability to observe the demotion and promotion decisions made by the
kernel on a per-cgroup basis is important for monitoring and tuning
containerized workloads on machines equipped with tiered memory.
Different containers in the system may experience drastically different
memory tiering actions that cannot be distinguished from the global
counters alone.
For example, a container running a workload that has a much hotter memory
accesses will likely see more promotions and fewer demotions, potentially
depriving a colocated container of top tier memory to such an extent that
its performance degrades unacceptably.
For another example, some containers may exhibit longer periods between
data reuse, causing much more numa_hint_faults than numa_pages_migrated.
In this case, tuning hot_threshold_ms may be appropriate, but the signal
can easily be lost if only global counters are available.
In the long term, we hope to introduce per-cgroup control of promotion and
demotion actions to implement memory placement policies in tiering.
This patch set adds seven counters to memory.stat in a cgroup:
numa_pages_migrated, numa_pte_updates, numa_hint_faults, pgdemote_kswapd,
pgdemote_khugepaged, pgdemote_direct and pgpromote_success. pgdemote_*
and pgpromote_success are also available in memory.numa_stat.
count_memcg_events_mm() is added to count multiple event occurrences at
once, and get_mem_cgroup_from_folio() is added because we need to get a
reference to the memcg of a folio before it's migrated to track
numa_pages_migrated. The accounting of PGDEMOTE_* is moved to
shrink_inactive_list() before being changed to per-cgroup.

The pressure_level in memcg v1 provides memory pressure notifications to
the user space. At the moment it provides notifications for three levels
of memory pressure i.e. low, medium and critical, which are defined based
on internal memory reclaim implementation details. More specifically the
ratio of scanned and reclaimed pages during a memory reclaim. However
this is not robust as there are workloads with mostly unreclaimable user
memory or kernel memory.
For v2, the users can use PSI for memory pressure status of the system or
the cgroup. Let's start the deprecation process for pressure_level and
add warnings to gather the info on how the current users are using this
interface and how they can be used to PSI.

Start the deprecation process of the memcg v1 features which we discussed
during LSFMMBPF 2024 [1]. For now add the warnings to collect the
information on how the current users are using these features. Next we
will work on providing better alternatives in v2 (if needed) and fully

This patch (of 4):
Memcg v1 provides opt-in TCP memory accounting feature. However it is
mostly unused due to its performance impact on the network traffic. In
v2, the TCP memory is accounted in the regular memory usage and is
transparent to the users but they can observe the TCP memory usage through
memcg stats.
Let's initiate the deprecation process of memcg v1's tcp accounting
functionality and add warnings to gather if there are any users and if
there are, collect how they are using it and plan to provide them better
alternative in v2.

Patch series "mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlers", v7.
This patch (of 2):
Other mechanisms for querying the peak memory usage of either a process or
v1 memory cgroup allow for resetting the high watermark. Restore parity
with those mechanisms, but with a less racy API.
For example:
- Any write to memory.max_usage_in_bytes in a cgroup v1 mount resets
the high watermark.
- writing "5" to the clear_refs pseudo-file in a processes's proc
directory resets the peak RSS.
This change is an evolution of a previous patch, which mostly copied the
cgroup v1 behavior, however, there were concerns about races/ownership
issues with a global reset, so instead this change makes the reset
filedescriptor-local.
Writing any non-empty string to the memory.peak and memory.swap.peak
pseudo-files reset the high watermark to the current usage for subsequent
reads through that same FD.
Notably, following Johannes's suggestion, this implementation moves the
O(FDs that have written) behavior onto the FD write(2) path. Instead, on
the page-allocation path, we simply add one additional watermark to
conditionally bump per-hierarchy level in the page-counter.
Additionally, this takes Longman's suggestion of nesting the
page-charging-path checks for the two watermarks to reduce the number of
common-case comparisons.
This behavior is particularly useful for work scheduling systems that need
to track memory usage of worker processes/cgroups per-work-item. Since
memory can't be squeezed like CPU can (the OOM-killer has opinions), these
systems need to track the peak memory usage to compute system/container
fullness when binpacking workitems.
Most notably, Vimeo's use-case involves a system that's doing global
binpacking across many Kubernetes pods/containers, and while we can use
PSI for some local decisions about overload, we strive to avoid packing
workloads too tightly in the first place. To facilitate this, we track
the peak memory usage. However, since we run with long-lived workers (to
amortize startup costs) we need a way to track the high watermark while a
work-item is executing. Polling runs the risk of missing short spikes
that last for timescales below the polling interval, and peak memory
tracking at the cgroup level is otherwise perfect for this use-case.
As this data is used to ensure that binpacked work ends up with sufficient
headroom, this use-case mostly avoids the inaccuracies surrounding
reclaimable memory.

Currently, the behavior of zswap.writeback wrt. the cgroup hierarchy
seems a bit odd. Unlike zswap.max, it doesn't honor the value from parent
cgroups. This surfaced when people tried to globally disable zswap
writeback, i.e. reserve physical swap space only for hibernation [1] -
disabling zswap.writeback only for the root cgroup results in subcgroups
with zswap.writeback=1 still performing writeback.
The inconsistency became more noticeable after I introduced the
MemoryZSwapWriteback= systemd unit setting [2] for controlling the knob.
The patch assumed that the kernel would enforce the value of parent
cgroups. It could probably be workarounded from systemd's side, by going
up the slice unit tree and inheriting the value. Yet I think it's more
sensible to make it behave consistently with zswap.max and friends.

Rewrite the short document on bisecting kernel bugs. The new text
improves .config handling, brings a mention of 'git bisect skip', and
explains what to do after the bisection finished -- including trying a
revert to verify the result. The rewrite at the same time removes the
unrelated and outdated section on 'Devices not appearing' and replaces
some sentences about bug reporting with a pointer to the document
covering that topic in detail.
This overall brings the approach close to the one in the recently added
text Documentation/admin-guide/verify-bugs-and-bisect-regressions.rst.
As those two texts serve a similar purpose for different audiences,
mention that document in the head of this one and outline when the
other might be the better one to follow.

If the persistent boot mapped ring buffer is used for trace_printk(),
force it to not use the binary versions. trace_printk() by default uses
bin_printf() that only saves the pointer to the format and not the format
itself inside the ring buffer. But for a persistent buffer that is read
after reboot, the pointers to the format strings may not be the same, or
worse, not even exist! Instead, just force the more robust, but slower,
version that does the formatting before saving into the ring buffer.
The boot mapped buffer can now be used for trace_printk and friends!
Using the trace_printk() and the persistent buffer was used to debug the
issue with the osnoise tracer:

Currently, trace_printk() just goes to the top level ring buffer. But
there may be times that it should go to one of the instances created by
the kernel command line.
Add a new trace_instance flag: traceprintk (also can use "printk" or
"trace_printk" as people tend to forget the actual flag name).
trace_instance=foo^traceprintk

Add a "flags" delimiter (^) to the "trace_instance" kernel command line
parameter, and add the "traceoff" flag. The format is:
trace_instance=<name>[^<flag1>[^<flag2>]][@<memory>][,<events>]
The code allows for more than one flag to be added, but currently only
"traceoff" is done so.
The motivation for this change came from debugging with the persistent
ring buffer and having trace_printk() writing to it. The trace_printk
calls are always enabled, and the boot after the crash was having the
unwanted trace_printks from the current boot inject into the ring buffer
with the trace_printks of the crash kernel, making the output very
confusing.

For the MAC based integrity operation, the integrity key size (i.e.
key_mac_size) is currently set to the digest size of the used digest.
For wrapped key HMAC algorithms, the key size is independent of the
cryptographic key size. So there is no known size of the mac key in
such cases. The desired key size can optionally be specified as argument
when the dm-crypt device is configured via 'integrity_key_size:%u'.
If no integrity_key_size argument is specified, the mac key size
is still set to the digest size, as before.
Increase version number to 1.28.0 so that support for the new
argument can be detected by user space (i.e. cryptsetup).

Allow boot instances to use memory reserved by the reserve_mem boot
option.
reserve_mem=12M:4096:trace trace_instance=boot_mapped@trace
The above will allocate 12 megs with 4096 alignment and label it "trace".
The second parameter will create a "boot_mapped" instance and use the
memory reserved and labeled as "trace" as the memory for the ring buffer.
That will create an instance called "boot_mapped":
/sys/kernel/tracing/instances/boot_mapped
Note, because the ring buffer is using a defined memory ranged, it will
act just like a memory mapped ring buffer. It will not have a snapshot
buffer, as it can't swap out the buffer. The snapshot files as well as any
tracers that uses a snapshot will not be present in the boot_mapped
instance.
Also note that reserve_mem is not reliable in acquiring the same physical
memory at each soft reboot. It is possible that KALSR could map the kernel
at the previous boot memory location forcing the reserve_mem to return a
different memory location. In this case, the previous ring buffer will be
lost.

During CSD-lock stalls, the additional information output by RCU CPU
stall warnings is usually redundant, flooding the console for not good
reason. However, this has been the way things work for a few years.
This commit therefore adds an rcutree.csd_lock_suppress_rcu_stall kernel
boot parameter that causes RCU CPU stall warnings to be abbreviated to
a single line when there is at least one CPU that has been stuck waiting
for CSD lock for more than five seconds.
To make this abbreviated message happen with decent probability:
tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/bin/kvm.sh --allcpus --duration 8 \
--configs "2*TREE01" --kconfig "CONFIG_CSD_LOCK_WAIT_DEBUG=y" \
--bootargs "csdlock_debug=1 rcutorture.stall_cpu=200 \

Cgroup subsystem state (CSS) is an abstraction in the cgroup layer to
help manage different structures in various cgroup subsystems by being
an embedded element inside a larger structure like cpuset or mem_cgroup.
The /proc/cgroups file shows the number of cgroups for each of the
subsystems. With cgroup v1, the number of CSSes is the same as the
number of cgroups. That is not the case anymore with cgroup v2. The
/proc/cgroups file cannot show the actual number of CSSes for the
subsystems that are bound to cgroup v2.
So if a v2 cgroup subsystem is leaking cgroups (usually memory cgroup),
we can't tell by looking at /proc/cgroups which cgroup subsystems may
be responsible.
As cgroup v2 had deprecated the use of /proc/cgroups, the hierarchical
cgroup.stat file is now being extended to show the number of live and
dying CSSes associated with all the non-inhibited cgroup subsystems that
have been bound to cgroup v2. The number includes CSSes in the current
cgroup as well as in all the descendants underneath it. This will help
us pinpoint which subsystems are responsible for the increasing number
of dying (nr_dying_descendants) cgroups.
The CSSes dying counts are stored in the cgroup structure itself
instead of inside the CSS as suggested by Johannes. This will allow
us to accurately track dying counts of cgroup subsystems that have
recently been disabled in a cgroup. It is now possible that a zero
subsystem number is coupled with a non-zero dying subsystem number.

Note that 'debug' controller wasn't used to provide this information because
the controller is not recommended in productions kernels, also many of them
won't enable CONFIG_CGROUP_DEBUG by default.
Similar information could be retrieved with debuggers like drgn but that's
also not always available (e.g. lockdown) and the additional cost of runtime
tracking here is deemed marginal.
tj: Added Michal's paragraphs on why this is not added the debug controller
to the commit message.

Yu has a fix which I'll send along later via the hotfixes branch.
- In the series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling" Jan
Kara addresses a couple of issues in the writeback throttling code.
These fixes are also targetted at -stable kernels.
- Ryusuke Konishi's series "nilfs2: fix potential issues related to
reserved inodes" does that. This should actually be in the
mm-nonmm-stable tree, along with the many other nilfs2 patches. My bad.
- More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series "mm: convert to
folio_alloc_mpol()"
- Kemeng Shi has sent some cleanups to the writeback code in the series
"Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve readability of
cgroup writeback"
- Kairui Song has made the swap code a little smaller and a little
faster in the series "mm/swap: clean up and optimize swap cache index".
- In the series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in
vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()" David
Hildenbrand has reworked the rather sketchy handling of the use of the
zeropage in MAP_SHARED mappings. I don't see any runtime effects here -
more a cleanup/understandability/maintainablity thing.
- Dev Jain has improved selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.c's handling of
higher addresses, for aarch64. The (poorly named) series is
"Restructure va_high_addr_switch".
- The core TLB handling code gets some cleanups and possible slight
optimizations in Bang Li's series "Add update_mmu_tlb_range() to
simplify code".
- Jane Chu has improved the handling of our
fake-an-unrecoverable-memory-error testing feature MADV_HWPOISON in the
series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection".
- Jeff Johnson has sent a billion patches everywhere to add
MODULE_DESCRIPTION() to everything. Some landed in this pull.
- In the series "mm: cleanup MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY mode", Kefeng Wang has
simplified migration's use of hardware-offload memory copying.
- Yosry Ahmed performs more folio API conversions in his series "mm:
zswap: trivial folio conversions".
- In the series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first",
Chuanhua Han inches us forward in the handling of large pages in the
swap code. This is a cleanup and optimization, working toward the end
objective of full support of large folio swapin/out.
- In the series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window
calculation", Huang Ying has contributed some cleanups and a possible
fixlet to his VMA based swap readahead code.
- In the series "add mTHP support for anonymous shmem" Baolin Wang has
taught anonymous shmem mappings to use multisize THP. By default this
is a no-op - users must opt in vis sysfs controls. Dramatic
improvements in pagefault latency are realized.
- David Hildenbrand has some cleanups to our remaining use of
page_mapcount() in the series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to
fs/proc/internal.h".
- David also has some highmem accounting cleanups in the series
"mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually".
- Build-time fixes and cleanups from John Hubbard in the series
"cleanups, fixes, and progress towards avoiding "make headers"".
- Cleanups and consolidation of the core pagemap handling from Barry
Song in the series "mm: introduce pmd|pte_needs_soft_dirty_wp helpers
and utilize them".
- Lance Yang's series "Reclaim lazyfree THP without splitting" has
reduced the latency of the reclaim of pmd-mapped THPs under fairly
common circumstances. A 10x speedup is seen in a microbenchmark.
It does this by punting to aother CPU but I guess that's a win unless
all CPUs are pegged.
- hugetlb_cgroup cleanups from Xiu Jianfeng in the series
"mm/hugetlb_cgroup: rework on cftypes".
- Miaohe Lin's series "Some cleanups for memory-failure" does just that
thing.
- Is anyone reading this stuff? If so, email me!
- Someone other than SeongJae has developed a DAMON feature in Honggyu
Kim's series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory".
This adds DAMON features which may be used to help determine the
efficiency of our placement of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM.
- DAMON user API centralization and simplificatio work in SeongJae
Park's series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit
function".
- In the series "mm: page_type, zsmalloc and page_mapcount_reset()"
David Hildenbrand does some maintenance work on zsmalloc - partially
modernizing its use of pageframe fields.
- Kefeng Wang provides more folio conversions in the series "mm: remove
page_maybe_dma_pinned() and page_mkclean()".
- More cleanup from David Hildenbrand, this time in the series
"mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() for
!ZONE_DEVICE". It "enlightens memory hotplug more about PageOffline()
pages" and permits the removal of some virtio-mem hacks.
- Barry Song's series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
__folio_add_anon_rmap()" is a cleanup to the anon folio handling in
preparation for mTHP (multisize THP) swapin.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: improve clear and copy user folio"
implements more folio conversions, this time in the area of large folio
userspace copying.
- The series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool
and community meetup series" tells people how to get better involved
with other DAMON developers. From SeongJae Park.
- A large series ("kmsan: Enable on s390") from Ilya Leoshkevich does
that.
- David Hildenbrand sends along more cleanups, this time against the
migration code. The series is "mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault
folio isolation + checks under PTL".
- Jan Kara has found quite a lot of strangenesses and minor errors in
the readahead code. He addresses this in the series "mm: Fix various
readahead quirks".
- SeongJae Park's series "selftests/damon: test DAMOS tried regions and
{min,max}_nr_regions" adds features and addresses errors in DAMON's self
testing code.
- Gavin Shan has found a userspace-triggerable WARN in the pagecache
code. The series "mm/filemap: Limit page cache size to that supported
by xarray" addresses this. The series is marked cc:stable.
- Chengming Zhou's series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations
and cleanup" cleans up and slightly optimizes KSM.
- Roman Gushchin has separated the memcg-v1 and memcg-v2 code - lots of
code motion. The series (which also makes the memcg-v1 code
Kconfigurable) are
"mm: memcg: separate legacy cgroup v1 code and put under config
option" and
"mm: memcg: put cgroup v1-specific memcg data under CONFIG_MEMCG_V1"
- Dan Schatzberg's series "Add swappiness argument to memory.reclaim"
adds an additional feature to this cgroup-v2 control file.
- The series "Userspace controls soft-offline pages" from Jiaqi Yan
permits userspace to stop the kernel's automatic treatment of excessive
correctable memory errors. In order to permit userspace to monitor and
handle this situation.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from migrate
folio" teaches the kernel to appropriately handle migration from
poisoned source folios rather than simply panicing.
- SeongJae Park's series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements"
does those things.
- In the series "mm/zsmalloc: change back to per-size_class lock"
Chengming Zhou improves zsmalloc's scalability and memory utilization.
- Vivek Kasireddy's series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for
pinning memfd folios" makes the GUP code use FOLL_PIN rather than bare
refcount increments. So these paes can first be moved aside if they
reside in the movable zone or a CMA block.
- Andrii Nakryiko has added a binary ioctl()-based API to /proc/pid/maps
for much faster reading of vma information. The series is "query VMAs
from /proc/<pid>/maps".
- In the series "mm: introduce per-order mTHP split counters" Lance Yang
improves the kernel's presentation of developer information related to
multisize THP splitting.
- Michael Ellerman has developed the series "Reimplement huge pages
without hugepd on powerpc (8xx, e500, book3s/64)". This permits
userspace to use all available huge page sizes.
- In the series "revert unconditional slab and page allocator fault
injection calls" Vlastimil Babka removes a performance-affecting and not
very useful feature from slab fault injection.

* Add perf kvm-stat support for loongarch.
RISC-V:
* Redirect AMO load/store access fault traps to guest
* perf kvm stat support
* Use guest files for IMSIC virtualization, when available
ONE_REG support for the Zimop, Zcmop, Zca, Zcf, Zcd, Zcb and Zawrs ISA
extensions is coming through the RISC-V tree.
s390:
* Assortment of tiny fixes which are not time critical
x86:
* Fixes for Xen emulation.
* Add a global struct to consolidate tracking of host values, e.g. EFER
* Add KVM_CAP_X86_APIC_BUS_CYCLES_NS to allow configuring the effective APIC
bus frequency, because TDX.
* Print the name of the APICv/AVIC inhibits in the relevant tracepoint.
* Clean up KVM's handling of vendor specific emulation to consistently act on
"compatible with Intel/AMD", versus checking for a specific vendor.
* Drop MTRR virtualization, and instead always honor guest PAT on CPUs
that support self-snoop.
* Update to the newfangled Intel CPU FMS infrastructure.
* Don't advertise IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_OVF_CTRL as an MSR-to-be-saved, as it reads
'0' and writes from userspace are ignored.
* Misc cleanups
x86 - MMU:
* Small cleanups, renames and refactoring extracted from the upcoming
Intel TDX support.
* Don't allocate kvm_mmu_page.shadowed_translation for shadow pages that can't
hold leafs SPTEs.
* Unconditionally drop mmu_lock when allocating TDP MMU page tables for eager
page splitting, to avoid stalling vCPUs when splitting huge pages.
* Bug the VM instead of simply warning if KVM tries to split a SPTE that is
non-present or not-huge. KVM is guaranteed to end up in a broken state
because the callers fully expect a valid SPTE, it's all but dangerous
to let more MMU changes happen afterwards.
x86 - AMD:
* Make per-CPU save_area allocations NUMA-aware.
* Force sev_es_host_save_area() to be inlined to avoid calling into an
instrumentable function from noinstr code.
* Base support for running SEV-SNP guests. API-wise, this includes
a new KVM_X86_SNP_VM type, encrypting/measure the initial image into
guest memory, and finalizing it before launching it. Internally,
there are some gmem/mmu hooks needed to prepare gmem-allocated pages
before mapping them into guest private memory ranges.
This includes basic support for attestation guest requests, enough to
say that KVM supports the GHCB 2.0 specification.
There is no support yet for loading into the firmware those signing
keys to be used for attestation requests, and therefore no need yet
for the host to provide certificate data for those keys. To support
fetching certificate data from userspace, a new KVM exit type will be
needed to handle fetching the certificate from userspace. An attempt to
define a new KVM_EXIT_COCO/KVM_EXIT_COCO_REQ_CERTS exit type to handle
this was introduced in v1 of this patchset, but is still being discussed
by community, so for now this patchset only implements a stub version
of SNP Extended Guest Requests that does not provide certificate data.
x86 - Intel:
* Remove an unnecessary EPT TLB flush when enabling hardware.
* Fix a series of bugs that cause KVM to fail to detect nested pending posted
interrupts as valid wake eents for a vCPU executing HLT in L2 (with
HLT-exiting disable by L1).
* KVM: x86: Suppress MMIO that is triggered during task switch emulation
Explicitly suppress userspace emulated MMIO exits that are triggered when
emulating a task switch as KVM doesn't support userspace MMIO during
complex (multi-step) emulation. Silently ignoring the exit request can
result in the WARN_ON_ONCE(vcpu->mmio_needed) firing if KVM exits to
userspace for some other reason prior to purging mmio_needed.
See commit 0dc902267c ("KVM: x86: Suppress pending MMIO write exits if
emulator detects exception") for more details on KVM's limitations with
respect to emulated MMIO during complex emulator flows.
Generic:
* Rename the AS_UNMOVABLE flag that was introduced for KVM to AS_INACCESSIBLE,
because the special casing needed by these pages is not due to just
unmovability (and in fact they are only unmovable because the CPU cannot
access them).
* New ioctl to populate the KVM page tables in advance, which is useful to
mitigate KVM page faults during guest boot or after live migration.
The code will also be used by TDX, but (probably) not through the ioctl.
* Enable halt poll shrinking by default, as Intel found it to be a clear win.
* Setup empty IRQ routing when creating a VM to avoid having to synchronize
SRCU when creating a split IRQCHIP on x86.
* Rework the sched_in/out() paths to replace kvm_arch_sched_in() with a flag
that arch code can use for hooking both sched_in() and sched_out().
* Take the vCPU @id as an "unsigned long" instead of "u32" to avoid
truncating a bogus value from userspace, e.g. to help userspace detect bugs.
* Mark a vCPU as preempted if and only if it's scheduled out while in the
KVM_RUN loop, e.g. to avoid marking it preempted and thus writing guest
memory when retrieving guest state during live migration blackout.
Selftests:
* Remove dead code in the memslot modification stress test.
* Treat "branch instructions retired" as supported on all AMD Family 17h+ CPUs.
* Print the guest pseudo-RNG seed only when it changes, to avoid spamming the
log for tests that create lots of VMs.
* Make the PMU counters test less flaky when counting LLC cache misses by
doing CLFLUSH{OPT} in every loop iteration.

Pull pci updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
"Enumeration:
- Define PCIE_RESET_CONFIG_DEVICE_WAIT_MS for the generic 100ms
required after reset before config access (Kevin Xie)
- Define PCIE_T_RRS_READY_MS for the generic 100ms required after
reset before config access (probably should be unified with
PCIE_RESET_CONFIG_DEVICE_WAIT_MS) (Damien Le Moal)
Resource management:
- Rename find_resource() to find_resource_space() to be more
descriptive (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Export find_resource_space() for use by PCI core, which needs to
learn whether there is available space for a bridge window (Ilpo
Järvinen)
- Prevent double counting of resources so window size doesn't grow on
each remove/rescan cycle (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Relax bridge window sizing algorithm so a device doesn't break
simply because it was removed and rescanned (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Evaluate the ACPI PRESERVE_BOOT_CONFIG _DSM in
pci_register_host_bridge() (not acpi_pci_root_create()) so we can
unify it with similar DT functionality (Vidya Sagar)
- Extend use of DT "linux,pci-probe-only" property so it works
per-host bridge as well as globally (Vidya Sagar)
- Unify support for ACPI PRESERVE_BOOT_CONFIG _DSM and the DT
"linux,pci-probe-only" property in pci_preserve_config() (Vidya
Sagar)
Driver binding:
- Add devres infrastructure for managed request and map of partial
BAR resources (Philipp Stanner)
- Deprecate pcim_iomap_table() because uses like
"pcim_iomap_table()[0]" have no good way to return errors (Philipp
Stanner)
- Add an always-managed pcim_request_region() for use instead of
pci_request_region() and similar, which are sometimes managed
depending on whether pcim_enable_device() has been called
previously (Philipp Stanner)
- Reimplement pcim_set_mwi() so it doesn't need to keep store MWI
state (Philipp Stanner)
- Add pcim_intx() for use instead of pci_intx(), which is sometimes
managed depending on whether pcim_enable_device() has been called
previously (Philipp Stanner)
- Add managed pcim_iomap_range() to allow mapping of a partial BAR
(Philipp Stanner)

- Detect if a device was removed or replaced during system sleep so
we don't assume a new device is the one that used to be there
(Lukas Wunner)
Virtualization:
- Add an ACS quirk for Broadcom BCM5760X multi-function NIC; it
prevents transactions between functions even though it doesn't
advertise ACS, so the functions can be attached individually via
VFIO (Ajit Khaparde)
Peer-to-peer DMA:
- Add a "pci=config_acs=" kernel command-line parameter to relax

Here is a small set of tty and serial driver updates for 6.11-rc1. Not
much happened this cycle, unlike the previous kernel release which had
lots of "excitement" in this part of the kernel. Included in here are
the following changes:
- dt binding updates for new platforms
- 8250 driver updates
- various small serial driver fixes and updates
- printk/console naming and matching attempt #2 (was reverted for
6.10-final, should be good to go this time around, acked by the
relevant maintainers).
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues.

Pull EFI updates from Ard Biesheuvel:
"Note the removal of the EFI fake memory map support - this is believed
to be unused and no longer worth supporting. However, we could easily
bring it back if needed.
With recent developments regarding confidential VMs and unaccepted
memory, combined with kexec, creating a known inaccurate view of the
firmware's memory map and handing it to the OS is a feature we can
live without, hence the removal. Alternatively, I could imagine making
this feature mutually exclusive with those confidential VM related
features, but let's try simply removing it first.
Summary:
- Drop support for the 'fake' EFI memory map on x86
- Add an SMBIOS based tweak to the EFI stub instructing the firmware
on x86 Macbook Pros to keep both GPUs enabled
- Replace 0-sized array with flexible array in EFI memory attributes

x86/boot: Remove unused function __fortify_panic()
Documentation: Remove "mfgpt_irq=" from the kernel-parameters.txt file
GPIOLIB core:
- rework kfifo handling rework in the character device code
- improve the labeling of GPIOs requested as interrupts and show more info
on interrupt-only GPIOs in debugfs
- remove unused APIs
- unexport interfaces that are only used from the core GPIO code
- drop the return value from gpiochip_set_desc_names() as it cannot fail
- move a string array definition out of a header and into a specific
compilation unit
- convert the last user of gpiochip_get_desc() other than GPIO core to using
a safer alternative
- use array_index_nospec() where applicable
New drivers:
- add a "virtual GPIO consumer" module that allows requesting GPIOs from actual
hardware and driving tests of the in-kernel GPIO API from user-space over
debugfs
- add a GPIO-based "sloppy" logic analyzer module useful for "first glance"

Pull gpio updates from Bartosz Golaszewski:
"The majority of added lines are two new modules: the GPIO virtual
consumer module that improves our ability to add automated tests for
the kernel API and the "sloppy" logic analyzer module that uses the
GPIO API to implement a coarse-grained debugging tool for useful for
remote development.
Other than that we have the usual assortment of various driver
extensions, improvements to the core GPIO code, DT-bindings and other
documentation updates as well as an extension to the interrupt
simulator:
GPIOLIB core:
- rework kfifo handling rework in the character device code
- improve the labeling of GPIOs requested as interrupts and show more
info on interrupt-only GPIOs in debugfs
- remove unused APIs
- unexport interfaces that are only used from the core GPIO code
- drop the return value from gpiochip_set_desc_names() as it cannot
fail
- move a string array definition out of a header and into a specific
compilation unit
- convert the last user of gpiochip_get_desc() other than GPIO core
to using a safer alternative
- use array_index_nospec() where applicable
New drivers:
- add a "virtual GPIO consumer" module that allows requesting GPIOs
from actual hardware and driving tests of the in-kernel GPIO API
from user-space over debugfs
- add a GPIO-based "sloppy" logic analyzer module useful for "first
glance" debugging on remote boards
Driver improvements:
- add support for a new model to gpio-pca953x
- lock GPIOs as interrupts in gpio-sim when the lines are requested
as irqs via the simulator domain + some other minor improvements
- improve error reporting in gpio-syscon
- convert gpio-ath79 to using dynamic GPIO base and range
- use pcibios_err_to_errno() for converting PCIBIOS error codes to
errno vaues in gpio-amd8111 and gpio-rdc321x
- allow building gpio-brcmstb for the BCM2835 architecture

- convert DT bindings for lsi,zevio, mpc8xxx, and atmel to DT schema
- document new properties for aspeed,gpio, fsl,qoriq-gpio and
gpio-vf610
- document new compatibles for pca953x and fsl,qoriq-gpio

If you try to set /proc/fs/cifs/SecurityFlags to 1 it
will set them to CIFSSEC_MUST_NTLMV2 which no longer is
relevant (the less secure ones like lanman have been removed
from cifs.ko) and is also missing some flags (like for
signing and encryption) and can even cause mount to fail,
so change this to set it to Kerberos in this case.
Also change the description of the SecurityFlags to remove mention
of flags which are no longer supported.

The legacy PMD-sized THP counters at /proc/vmstat include thp_file_alloc,
thp_file_fallback and thp_file_fallback_charge, which rather confusingly
refer to shmem THP and do not include any other types of file pages. This
is inconsistent since in most other places in the kernel, THP counters are
explicitly separated for anon, shmem and file flavours. However, we are
stuck with it since it constitutes a user ABI.
Recently, commit 66f44583f9 ("mm: shmem: add mTHP counters for anonymous
shmem") added equivalent mTHP stats for shmem, keeping the same "file_"
prefix in the names. But in future, we may want to add extra stats to
cover actual file pages, at which point, it would all become very
confusing.
So let's take the opportunity to rename these new counters "shmem_" before
the change makes it upstream and the ABI becomes immutable. While we are
at it, let's improve the documentation for the legacy counters to make it
clear that they count shmem pages only.

When folio is isolated, the PG_lru bit is cleared. So the PG_lru check in
stable_page_flags() will miss this kind of isolated folios. Use
folio_test_large_rmappable() instead to also include isolated folios.
Since pagecache supports large folios and the introduction of mTHP, the
semantics of KPF_THP have been expanded, now it indicates not only
PMD-sized THP. Update related documentation to clearly state that KPF_THP
indicates multiple order THPs.

Since the introduction of mTHP, the docuementation has stated that
khugepaged would be enabled when any mTHP size is enabled, and disabled
when all mTHP sizes are disabled. There are 2 problems with this; 1.
this is not what was implemented by the code and 2. this is not the
desirable behavior.
Desirable behavior is for khugepaged to be enabled when any PMD-sized THP
is enabled, anon or file. (Note that file THP is still controlled by the
top-level control so we must always consider that, as well as the PMD-size
mTHP control for anon). khugepaged only supports collapsing to PMD-sized
THP so there is no value in enabling it when PMD-sized THP is disabled.
So let's change the code and documentation to reflect this policy.
Further, per-size enabled control modification events were not previously
forwarded to khugepaged to give it an opportunity to start or stop.
Consequently the following was resulting in khugepaged eroneously not
being activated:
echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-2048kB/enabled

PCIe ACS settings control the level of isolation and the possible P2P paths
between devices. With greater isolation the kernel will create smaller
iommu_groups and with less isolation there is more HW that can achieve P2P
transfers. From a virtualization perspective all devices in the same
iommu_group must be assigned to the same VM as they lack security
isolation.
There is no way for the kernel to automatically know the correct ACS
settings for any given system and workload. Existing command line options
(e.g., disable_acs_redir) allow only for large scale change, disabling all
isolation, but this is not sufficient for more complex cases.
Add a kernel command-line option 'config_acs' to directly control all the
ACS bits for specific devices, which allows the operator to setup the right
level of isolation to achieve the desired P2P configuration. The
definition is future proof; when new ACS bits are added to the spec the
open syntax can be extended.
ACS needs to be setup early in the kernel boot as the ACS settings affect
how iommu_groups are formed. iommu_group formation is a one time event
during initial device discovery, so changing ACS bits after kernel boot can
result in an inaccurate view of the iommu_groups compared to the current
isolation configuration.
ACS applies to PCIe Downstream Ports and multi-function devices. The
default ACS settings are strict and deny any direct traffic between two
functions. This results in the smallest iommu_group the HW can support.
Frequently these values result in slow or non-working P2PDMA.
ACS offers a range of security choices controlling how traffic is
allowed to go directly between two devices. Some popular choices:
- Full prevention
- Translated requests can be direct, with various options
- Asymmetric direct traffic, A can reach B but not the reverse
- All traffic can be direct
Along with some other less common ones for special topologies.
The intention is that this option would be used with expert knowledge of
the HW capability and workload to achieve the desired configuration.

This commit removes the "pmf.rst" document, which was associated with
the PMF driver that enabled system state updates based on TA output
actions.
The driver now uses existing input events (KEY_SCREENLOCK, KEY_SLEEP,

"/etc/udev/rules.d/" directory. Consequently, the pmf.rst document is no
longer necessary. Therefore, the pmf.rst documentation is being removed.

DAMON user-space tool (damo) provides access pattern snapshot feature,
which is expected to be frequently used for real time access pattern
analysis. The snapshot output is also showing what DAMON provides on its
own, including the 'age' information.
In contrast, the recorded access patterns, which is shown as an example
usage on the quick start section, shows what users can make from what
DAMON provided. It includes information that generated outside of DAMON
and makes the 'age' concept bit unclear. Hence snapshot output is easier
at understanding the raw realtime output of DAMON. Add the snapshot usage
example on the quick start section.

There was a performance regression reported where dm-crypt would perform
worse on new kernels than on old kernels. The reason is that the old
kernels split the bios to NVMe request size (that is usually 65536 or
131072 bytes) and the new kernels pass the big bios through dm-crypt and
split them underneath.
If a big 1MiB bio is passed to dm-crypt, dm-crypt processes it on a single
core without parallelization and this is what causes the performance
degradation.
This commit introduces new tunable variables
/sys/module/dm_crypt/parameters/max_read_size and
/sys/module/dm_crypt/parameters/max_write_size that specify the maximum
bio size for dm-crypt. Bios larger than this value are split, so that
they can be encrypted in parallel by multiple cores. If these variables
are '0', a default 131072 is used.
Splitting bios may cause performance regressions in other workloads - if
this happens, the user should increase the value in max_read_size and
max_write_size variables.
max_read_size:
128k 2399MiB/s
256k 2368MiB/s
512k 1986MiB/s
1024 1790MiB/s
max_write_size:
128k 1712MiB/s
256k 1651MiB/s
512k 1537MiB/s
1024k 1332MiB/s
Note that if you run dm-crypt inside a virtual machine, you may need to do
"echo numa >/sys/module/workqueue/parameters/default_affinity_scope" to
improve performance.

When a VCPU is online, function pv_enable_steal_time() is called. This
function will pass guest physical address of struct kvm_steal_time and
tells hypervisor to enable steal time. When a vcpu is offline, physical
address is set as 0 and tells hypervisor to disable steal time.
Here is an output of vmstat on guest when there is workload on both host

The GPIO subsystem used to have a serious problem with undefined behavior
and use-after-free bugs on hot-unplug of GPIO chips. This can be
considered a corner-case by some as most GPIO controllers are enabled
early in the boot process and live until the system goes down but most
GPIO drivers do allow unbind over sysfs, many are loadable modules that
can be (force) unloaded and there are also GPIO devices that can be
dynamically detached, for instance CP2112 which is a USB GPIO expender.
Bugs can be triggered both from user-space as well as by in-kernel users.
We have the means of testing it from user-space via the character device
but the issues manifest themselves differently in the kernel.
This is a proposition of adding a new virtual driver - a configurable
GPIO consumer that can be configured over configfs (similarly to
gpio-sim) or described on the device-tree.
This driver is aimed as a helper in spotting any regressions in
hot-unplug handling in GPIOLIB.

Allow proactive reclaimers to submit an additional swappiness=<val>
argument to memory.reclaim. This overrides the global or per-memcg
swappiness setting for that reclaim attempt.
For example:
echo "2M swappiness=0" > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory.reclaim
will perform reclaim on the rootcg with a swappiness setting of 0 (no
swap) regardless of the vm.swappiness sysctl setting.
Userspace proactive reclaimers use the memory.reclaim interface to trigger
reclaim. The memory.reclaim interface does not allow for any way to
effect the balance of file vs anon during proactive reclaim. The only
approach is to adjust the vm.swappiness setting. However, there are a few
reasons we look to control the balance of file vs anon during proactive
reclaim, separately from reactive reclaim:
* Swapout should be limited to manage SSD write endurance. In near-OOM
situations we are fine with lots of swap-out to avoid OOMs. As these
are typically rare events, they have relatively little impact on write
endurance. However, proactive reclaim runs continuously and so its
impact on SSD write endurance is more significant. Therefore it is
desireable to control swap-out for proactive reclaim separately from
reactive reclaim
* Some userspace OOM killers like systemd-oomd[1] support OOM killing on
swap exhaustion. This makes sense if the swap exhaustion is triggered
due to reactive reclaim but less so if it is triggered due to proactive
reclaim (e.g. one could see OOMs when free memory is ample but anon is
just particularly cold). Therefore, it's desireable to have proactive
reclaim reduce or stop swap-out before the threshold at which OOM
killing occurs.
In the case of Meta's Senpai proactive reclaimer, we adjust vm.swappiness
before writes to memory.reclaim[2]. This has been in production for
nearly two years and has addressed our needs to control proactive vs
reactive reclaim behavior but is still not ideal for a number of reasons:
* vm.swappiness is a global setting, adjusting it can race/interfere
with other system administration that wishes to control vm.swappiness.
In our case, we need to disable Senpai before adjusting vm.swappiness.
* vm.swappiness is stateful - so a crash or restart of Senpai can leave
a misconfigured setting. This requires some additional management to
record the "desired" setting and ensure Senpai always adjusts to it.
With this patch, we avoid these downsides of adjusting vm.swappiness
globally.

If a CPU is running either a userspace application or a guest OS in
nohz_full mode, it is possible for a system call to occur just as an
RCU grace period is starting. If that CPU also has the scheduling-clock
tick enabled for any reason (such as a second runnable task), and if the
system was booted with rcutree.use_softirq=0, then RCU can add insult to
injury by awakening that CPU's rcuc kthread, resulting in yet another
task and yet more OS jitter due to switching to that task, running it,
and switching back.
In addition, in the common case where that system call is not of
excessively long duration, awakening the rcuc task is pointless.
This pointlessness is due to the fact that the CPU will enter an extended
quiescent state upon returning to the userspace application or guest OS.
In this case, the rcuc kthread cannot do anything that the main RCU
grace-period kthread cannot do on its behalf, at least if it is given
a few additional milliseconds (for example, given the time duration
specified by rcutree.jiffies_till_first_fqs, give or take scheduling
delays).
This commit therefore adds a rcutree.nohz_full_patience_delay kernel
boot parameter that specifies the grace period age (in milliseconds,
rounded to jiffies) before which RCU will refrain from awakening the
rcuc kthread. Preliminary experimentation suggests a value of 1000,
that is, one second. Increasing rcutree.nohz_full_patience_delay will
increase grace-period latency and in turn increase memory footprint,
so systems with constrained memory might choose a smaller value.
Systems with less-aggressive OS-jitter requirements might choose the
default value of zero, which keeps the traditional immediate-wakeup
behavior, thus avoiding increases in grace-period latency.

To support the use of mTHP with anonymous shmem, add a new sysfs interface
'shmem_enabled' in the '/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-kB/'
directory for each mTHP to control whether shmem is enabled for that mTHP,
with a value similar to the top level 'shmem_enabled', which can be set
to: "always", "inherit (to inherit the top level setting)", "within_size",
"advise", "never". An 'inherit' option is added to ensure compatibility
with these global settings, and the options 'force' and 'deny' are
dropped, which are rather testing artifacts from the old ages.
By default, PMD-sized hugepages have enabled="inherit" and all other
hugepage sizes have enabled="never" for
'/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-xxkB/shmem_enabled'.
In addition, if top level value is 'force', then only PMD-sized hugepages
have enabled="inherit", otherwise configuration will be failed and vice
versa. That means now we will avoid using non-PMD sized THP to override
the global huge allocation.

Between kexec and confidential VM support, handling the EFI memory maps
correctly on x86 is already proving to be rather difficult (as opposed
to other EFI architectures which manage to never modify the EFI memory
map to begin with)
EFI fake memory map support is essentially a development hack (for
testing new support for the 'special purpose' and 'more reliable' EFI
memory attributes) that leaked into production code. The regions marked
in this manner are not actually recognized as such by the firmware
itself or the EFI stub (and never have), and marking memory as 'more
reliable' seems rather futile if the underlying memory is just ordinary
RAM.
Marking memory as 'special purpose' in this way is also dubious, but may
be in use in production code nonetheless. However, the same should be
achievable by using the memmap= command line option with the ! operator.
EFI fake memmap support is not enabled by any of the major distros
(Debian, Fedora, SUSE, Ubuntu) and does not exist on other
architectures, so let's drop support for it.

The "cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective" value is currently limited to a
subset of its "cpuset.cpus". This makes the exclusive CPUs distribution
hierarchy subsumed within the larger "cpuset.cpus" hierarchy. We have to
decide on what CPUs are used locally and what CPUs can be passed down as
exclusive CPUs down the hierarchy and combine them into "cpuset.cpus".
The advantage of the current scheme is to have only one hierarchy to
worry about. However, it make it harder to use as all the "cpuset.cpus"
values have to be properly set along the way down to the designated remote
partition root. It also makes it more cumbersome to find out what CPUs
can be used locally.
Make creation of remote partition simpler by breaking the
dependency of "cpuset.cpus.exclusive" on "cpuset.cpus" and make
them independent entities. Now we have two separate hierarchies -
one for setting "cpuset.cpus.effective" and the other one for setting
"cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective". We may not need to set "cpuset.cpus"
when we activate a partition root anymore.
Also update Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst and cpuset.c comment
to document this change.

The CS_CPU_EXCLUSIVE flag is currently set whenever cpuset.cpus.exclusive
is set to make sure that the exclusivity test will be run to ensure its
exclusiveness. At the same time, this flag can be changed whenever the
partition root state is changed. For example, the CS_CPU_EXCLUSIVE flag
will be reset whenever a partition root becomes invalid. This makes
using CS_CPU_EXCLUSIVE to ensure exclusiveness a bit fragile.
The current scheme also makes setting up a cpuset.cpus.exclusive
hierarchy to enable remote partition harder as cpuset.cpus.exclusive
cannot overlap with any cpuset.cpus of sibling cpusets if their
cpuset.cpus.exclusive aren't set.
Solve these issues by deferring the setting of CS_CPU_EXCLUSIVE flag
until the cpuset become a valid partition root while adding new checks
in validate_change() to ensure that cpuset.cpus.exclusive of sibling
cpusets cannot overlap.
An additional check is also added to validate_change() to make sure that
cpuset.cpus of one cpuset cannot be a subset of cpuset.cpus.exclusive
of a sibling cpuset to avoid the problem that none of those CPUs will
be available when these exclusive CPUs are extracted out to a newly
enabled partition root. The Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst
file is updated to document the new constraints.

Add a method to find a region specified by reserve_mem=nn:align:name for
ramoops. Adding a kernel command line parameter:
reserve_mem=12M:4096:oops ramoops.mem_name=oops
Will use the size and location defined by the memmap parameter where it
finds the memory and labels it "oops". The "oops" in the ramoops option
is used to search for it.
This allows for arbitrary RAM to be used for ramoops if it is known that
the memory is not cleared on kernel crashes or soft reboots.

In order to allow for requesting a memory region that can be used for
things like pstore on multiple machines where the memory layout is not the
same, add a new option to the kernel command line called "reserve_mem".
The format is: reserve_mem=nn:align:name
Where it will find nn amount of memory at the given alignment of align.
The name field is to allow another subsystem to retrieve where the memory
was found. For example:
reserve_mem=12M:4096:oops ramoops.mem_name=oops
Where ramoops.mem_name will tell ramoops that memory was reserved for it
via the reserve_mem option and it can find it by calling:
if (reserve_mem_find_by_name("oops", &start, &size)) {
// start holds the start address and size holds the size given
This is typically used for systems that do not wipe the RAM, and this
command line will try to reserve the same physical memory on soft reboots.
Note, it is not guaranteed to be the same location. For example, if KASLR
places the kernel at the location of where the RAM reservation was from a
previous boot, the new reservation will be at a different location. Any
subsystem using this feature must add a way to verify that the contents of
the physical memory is from a previous boot, as there may be cases where
the memory will not be located at the same location.
Not all systems may work either. There could be bit flips if the reboot
goes through the BIOS. Using kexec to reboot the machine is likely to
have better results in such cases.

The string "ltpc" cannot be found in the source code anymore. This
kernel parameter likely belonged to the LocalTalk PC card module
which has been removed in commit 03dcb90dbf ("net: appletalk:
remove Apple/Farallon LocalTalk PC support"), so we should remove
it from kernel-parameters.txt now, too.

There was insufficient review and no agreement that this is the right
approach.
There are serious flaws with the implementation that make processes using
mlock() not even work with simple fork() [1] and we get reliable crashes
when rebooting.
Further, simply because we might be unmapping a single PTE of a large
mlocked folio, we shouldn't zero out the whole folio.
... especially because the code can also *corrupt* urelated memory because
kernel_init_pages(page, folio_nr_pages(folio));
Could end up writing outside of the actual folio if we work with a tail
page.
Let's revert it. Once there is agreement that this is the right approach,
the issues were fixed and there was reasonable review and proper testing,
we can consider it again.

Add an early_params to control WFI and WFE trapping. This is to
control the degree guests can wait for interrupts on their own without
being trapped by KVM. Options for each param are trap and notrap. trap
enables the trap. notrap disables the trap. Note that when enabled,
traps are allowed but not guaranteed by the CPU architecture. Absent
an explicitly set policy, default to current behavior: disabling the
trap if only a single task is running and enabling otherwise.

[ oliver: rework kvm_vcpu_should_clear_tw*() for readability ]

Add an option to the trace_instance kernel command line parameter that
allows it to use the reserved memory from memmap boot parameter.
memmap=12M$0x284500000 trace_instance=boot_mapped@0x284500000:12M
The above will reserves 12 megs at the physical address 0x284500000.
The second parameter will create a "boot_mapped" instance and use the
memory reserved as the memory for the ring buffer.
That will create an instance called "boot_mapped":
/sys/kernel/tracing/instances/boot_mapped
Note, because the ring buffer is using a defined memory ranged, it will
act just like a memory mapped ring buffer. It will not have a snapshot
buffer, as it can't swap out the buffer. The snapshot files as well as any
tracers that uses a snapshot will not be present in the boot_mapped
instance.
