docs: move x86 documentation into Documentation/arch/
Move the x86 documentation under Documentation/arch/ as a way of cleaning up the top-level directory and making the structure of our docs more closely match the structure of the source directories it describes. All in-kernel references to the old paths have been updated.

net: introduce default_rps_mask netns attribute
If RPS is enabled, this allows configuring a default rps mask, which is effective since receive queue creation time. A default RPS mask allows the system admin to ensure proper isolation, avoiding races at network namespace or device creation time. The default RPS mask is initially empty, and can be modified via a newly added sysctl entry.

kexec: introduce sysctl parameters kexec_load_limit_*
kexec allows replacing the current kernel with a different one. This is usually a source of concerns for sysadmins that want to harden a system. Linux already provides a way to disable loading new kexec kernel via kexec_load_disabled, but that control is very coard, it is all or nothing and does not make distinction between a panic kexec and a normal kexec. This patch introduces new sysctl parameters, with finer tuning to specify how many times a kexec kernel can be loaded. The sysadmin can set different limits for kexec panic and kexec reboot kernels. The value can be modified at runtime via sysctl, but only with a stricter value. With these new parameters on place, a system with loadpin and verity enabled, using the following kernel parameters: sysctl.kexec_load_limit_reboot=0 sysct.kexec_load_limit_panic=1 can have a good warranty that if initrd tries to load a panic kernel, a malitious user will have small chances to replace that kernel with a different one, even if they can trigger timeouts on the disk where the panic kernel lives.

Documentation: sysctl: correct kexec_load_disabled
Patch series "kexec: Add new parameter to limit the access to kexec", v6. Add two parameter to specify how many times a kexec kernel can be loaded. These parameter allow hardening the system. While we are at it, fix a documentation issue and refactor some code. This patch (of 3): kexec_load_disabled affects both ``kexec_load`` and ``kexec_file_load`` syscalls. Make it explicit.

hardening updates for v6.2-rc1
- Convert flexible array members, fix -Wstringop-overflow warnings,
and fix KCFI function type mismatches that went ignored by
maintainers (Gustavo A. R. Silva, Nathan Chancellor, Kees Cook).
- Remove the remaining side-effect users of ksize() by converting
dma-buf, btrfs, and coredump to using kmalloc_size_roundup(),
add more __alloc_size attributes, and introduce full testing
of all allocator functions. Finally remove the ksize() side-effect
so that each allocation-aware checker can finally behave without
exceptions.
- Introduce oops_limit (default 10,000) and warn_limit (default off)
to provide greater granularity of control for panic_on_oops and
panic_on_warn (Jann Horn, Kees Cook).
- Introduce overflows_type() and castable_to_type() helpers for
cleaner overflow checking.
- Improve code generation for strscpy() and update str*() kern-doc.
- Convert strscpy and sigphash tests to KUnit, and expand memcpy
tests.
- Always use a non-NULL argument for prepare_kernel_cred().
- Disable structleak plugin in FORTIFY KUnit test (Anders Roxell).
- Adjust orphan linker section checking to respect CONFIG_WERROR
(Xin Li).
- Make sure siginfo is cleared for forced SIGKILL (haifeng.xu).
- Fix um vs FORTIFY warnings for always-NULL arguments.

This was a not-too-busy cycle for documentation; highlights include:
- The beginnings of a set of translations into Spanish, headed up by Carlos
Bilbao.
- More Chinese translations.
- A change to the Sphinx "alabaster" theme by default for HTML generation.
Unlike the previous default (Read the Docs), alabaster is shipped with
Sphinx by default, reducing the number of other dependencies that need to
be installed. It also (IMO) produces a cleaner and more readable result.
- The ability to render the documentation into the texinfo format
(something Sphinx could always do, we just never wired it up until now).
Plus the usual collection of typo fixes, build-warning fixes, and minor
updates.

exit: Put an upper limit on how often we can oops
Many Linux systems are configured to not panic on oops; but allowing an attacker to oops the system **really** often can make even bugs that look completely unexploitable exploitable (like NULL dereferences and such) if each crash elevates a refcount by one or a lock is taken in read mode, and this causes a counter to eventually overflow. The most interesting counters for this are 32 bits wide (like open-coded refcounts that don't use refcount_t). (The ldsem reader count on 32-bit platforms is just 16 bits, but probably nobody cares about 32-bit platforms that much nowadays.) So let's panic the system if the kernel is constantly oopsing. The speed of oopsing 2^32 times probably depends on several factors, like how long the stack trace is and which unwinder you're using; an empirically important one is whether your console is showing a graphical environment or a text console that oopses will be printed to. In a quick single-threaded benchmark, it looks like oopsing in a vfork() child with a very short stack trace only takes ~510 microseconds per run when a graphical console is active; but switching to a text console that oopses are printed to slows it down around 87x, to ~45 milliseconds per run. (Adding more threads makes this faster, but the actual oops printing happens under &die_lock on x86, so you can maybe speed this up by a factor of around 2 and then any further improvement gets eaten up by lock contention.) It looks like it would take around 8-12 days to overflow a 32-bit counter with repeated oopsing on a multi-core X86 system running a graphical environment; both me (in an X86 VM) and Seth (with a distro kernel on normal hardware in a standard configuration) got numbers in that ballpark. 12 days aren't *that* short on a desktop system, and you'd likely need much longer on a typical server system (assuming that people don't run graphical desktop environments on their servers), and this is a *very* noisy and violent approach to exploiting the kernel; and it also seems to take orders of magnitude longer on some machines, probably because stuff like EFI pstore will slow it down a ton if that's active.

core_pattern: add CPU specifier
Statistically, in a large deployment regular segfaults may indicate a CPU issue. Currently, it is not possible to find out what CPU the segfault happened on. There are at least two attempts to improve segfault logging with this regard, but they do not help in case the logs rotate. Hence, lets make sure it is possible to permanently record a CPU the task ran on using a new core_pattern specifier.

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

Remove DECnet support from kernel
DECnet is an obsolete network protocol that receives more attention from kernel janitors than users. It belongs in computer protocol history museum not in Linux kernel. It has been "Orphaned" in kernel since 2010. The iproute2 support for DECnet was dropped in 5.0 release. The documentation link on Sourceforge says it is abandoned there as well. Leave the UAPI alone to keep userspace programs compiling. This means that there is still an empty neighbour table for AF_DECNET. The table of /proc/sys/net entries was updated to match current directories and reformatted to be alphabetical.

"Most of the MM queue. A few things are still pending.
Liam's maple tree rework didn't make it. This has resulted in a few
other minor patch series being held over for next time.
Multi-gen LRU still isn't merged as we were waiting for mapletree to
stabilize. The current plan is to merge MGLRU into -mm soon and to
later reintroduce mapletree, with a view to hopefully getting both
into 6.1-rc1.

powerpc/pseries/mobility: set NMI watchdog factor during an LPM
During an LPM, while the memory transfer is in progress on the arrival side, some latencies are generated when accessing not yet transferred pages on the arrival side. Thus, the NMI watchdog may be triggered too frequently, which increases the risk to hit an NMI interrupt in a bad place in the kernel, leading to a kernel panic. Disabling the Hard Lockup Watchdog until the memory transfer could be a too strong work around, some users would want this timeout to be eventually triggered if the system is hanging even during an LPM. Introduce a new sysctl variable nmi_watchdog_factor. It allows to apply a factor to the NMI watchdog timeout during an LPM. Just before the CPUs are stopped for the switchover sequence, the NMI watchdog timer is set to watchdog_thresh + factor% A value of 0 has no effect. The default value is 200, meaning that the NMI watchdog is set to 30s during LPM (based on a 10s watchdog_thresh value). Once the memory transfer is achieved, the factor is reset to 0. Setting this value to a high number is like disabling the NMI watchdog during an LPM.

mm: memory_hotplug: make hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap compatible with memmap_on_memory
For now, the feature of hugetlb_free_vmemmap is not compatible with the feature of memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory, and hugetlb_free_vmemmap takes precedence over memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory. However, someone wants to make memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory takes precedence over hugetlb_free_vmemmap since memmap_on_memory makes it more likely to succeed memory hotplug in close-to-OOM situations. So the decision of making hugetlb_free_vmemmap take precedence is not wise and elegant. The proper approach is to have hugetlb_vmemmap.c do the check whether the section which the HugeTLB pages belong to can be optimized. If the section's vmemmap pages are allocated from the added memory block itself, hugetlb_free_vmemmap should refuse to optimize the vmemmap, otherwise, do the optimization. Then both kernel parameters are compatible. So this patch introduces VmemmapSelfHosted to mask any non-optimizable vmemmap pages. The hugetlb_vmemmap can use this flag to detect if a vmemmap page can be optimized.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
"Almost all of MM here. A few things are still getting finished off,
reviewed, etc.
- Yang Shi has improved the behaviour of khugepaged collapsing of
readonly file-backed transparent hugepages.
- Johannes Weiner has arranged for zswap memory use to be tracked and
managed on a per-cgroup basis.
- Munchun Song adds a /proc knob ("hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap") for
runtime enablement of the recent huge page vmemmap optimization
feature.
- Baolin Wang contributes a series to fix some issues around hugetlb
pagetable invalidation.

Networking changes for 5.19.
Core
----
- Support TCPv6 segmentation offload with super-segments larger than
64k bytes using the IPv6 Jumbogram extension header (AKA BIG TCP).
- Generalize skb freeing deferral to per-cpu lists, instead of
per-socket lists.
- Add a netdev statistic for packets dropped due to L2 address
mismatch (rx_otherhost_dropped).
- Continue work annotating skb drop reasons.
- Accept alternative netdev names (ALT_IFNAME) in more netlink
requests.
- Add VLAN support for AF_PACKET SOCK_RAW GSO.
- Allow receiving skb mark from the socket as a cmsg.
- Enable memcg accounting for veth queues, sysctl tables and IPv6.
BPF
---
- Add libbpf support for User Statically-Defined Tracing (USDTs).
- Speed up symbol resolution for kprobes multi-link attachments.
- Support storing typed pointers to referenced and unreferenced
objects in BPF maps.
- Add support for BPF link iterator.
- Introduce access to remote CPU map elements in BPF per-cpu map.
- Allow middle-of-the-road settings for the
kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled sysctl.
- Implement basic types of dynamic pointers e.g. to allow for
dynamically sized ringbuf reservations without extra memory copies.
Protocols
---------
- Retire port only listening_hash table, add a second bind table
hashed by port and address. Avoid linear list walk when binding
to very popular ports (e.g. 443).
- Add bridge FDB bulk flush filtering support allowing user space
to remove all FDB entries matching a condition.
- Introduce accept_unsolicited_na sysctl for IPv6 to implement
router-side changes for RFC9131.
- Support for MPTCP path manager in user space.
- Add MPTCP support for fallback to regular TCP for connections
that have never connected additional subflows or transmitted
out-of-sequence data (partial support for RFC8684 fallback).
- Avoid races in MPTCP-level window tracking, stabilize and improve
throughput.
- Support lockless operation of GRE tunnels with seq numbers enabled.
- WiFi support for host based BSS color collision detection.
- Add support for SO_TXTIME/SCM_TXTIME on CAN sockets.
- Support transmission w/o flow control in CAN ISOTP (ISO 15765-2).
- Support zero-copy Tx with TLS 1.2 crypto offload (sendfile).
- Allow matching on the number of VLAN tags via tc-flower.
- Add tracepoint for tcp_set_ca_state().
Driver API
----------
- Improve error reporting from classifier and action offload.
- Add support for listing line cards in switches (devlink).
- Add helpers for reporting page pool statistics with ethtool -S.
- Add support for reading clock cycles when using PTP virtual clocks,
instead of having the driver convert to time before reporting.
This makes it possible to report time from different vclocks.
- Support configuring low-latency Tx descriptor push via ethtool.
- Separate Clause 22 and Clause 45 MDIO accesses more explicitly.

It was a moderately busy cycle for documentation; highlights include:
- After a long period of inactivity, the Japanese translations are seeing
some much-needed maintenance and updating.
- Reworked IOMMU documentation
- Some new documentation for static-analysis tools
- A new overall structure for the memory-management documentation. This
is an LSFMM outcome that, it is hoped, will help encourage developers to
fill in the many gaps. Optimism is eternal...but hopefully it will
work.
- More Chinese translations.
Plus the usual typo fixes, updates, etc.

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: add hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap sysctl
We must add hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on (or "off") to the boot cmdline and
reboot the server to enable or disable the feature of optimizing vmemmap
pages associated with HugeTLB pages. However, rebooting usually takes a
long time. So add a sysctl to enable or disable the feature at runtime
without rebooting. Why we need this? There are 3 use cases.
1) The feature of minimizing overhead of struct page associated with
each HugeTLB is disabled by default without passing
"hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on" to the boot cmdline. When we (ByteDance)
deliver the servers to the users who want to enable this feature, they
have to configure the grub (change boot cmdline) and reboot the
servers, whereas rebooting usually takes a long time (we have thousands
of servers). It's a very bad experience for the users. So we need a
approach to enable this feature after rebooting. This is a use case in
our practical environment.
2) Some use cases are that HugeTLB pages are allocated 'on the fly'
instead of being pulled from the HugeTLB pool, those workloads would be
affected with this feature enabled. Those workloads could be
identified by the characteristics of they never explicitly allocating
huge pages with 'nr_hugepages' but only set 'nr_overcommit_hugepages'
and then let the pages be allocated from the buddy allocator at fault
time. We can confirm it is a real use case from the commit
