2af7c9cf02 riscv/ptrace: expose riscv CFI status and state via ptrace and in core files
Expose a new register type NT_RISCV_USER_CFI for risc-v CFI status and
state. Intentionally, both landing pad and shadow stack status and
state are rolled into the CFI state. Creating two different
NT_RISCV_USER_XXX would not be useful and would waste a note
type. Enabling, disabling and locking the CFI feature is not allowed
via ptrace set interface. However, setting 'elp' state or setting
shadow stack pointer are allowed via the ptrace set interface.  It is
expected that 'gdb' might need to fixup 'elp' state or 'shadow stack'
pointer.

5ca243f6e3 prctl: add arch-agnostic prctl()s for indirect branch tracking
Three architectures (x86, aarch64, riscv) have support for indirect
branch tracking feature in a very similar fashion. On a very high
level, indirect branch tracking is a CPU feature where CPU tracks
branches which use a memory operand to transfer control. As part of
this tracking, during an indirect branch, the CPU expects a landing
pad instruction on the target PC, and if not found, the CPU raises
some fault (architecture-dependent).

x86 landing pad instr - 'ENDBRANCH'
arch64 landing pad instr - 'BTI'
riscv landing instr - 'lpad'

Given that three major architectures have support for indirect branch
tracking, this patch creates architecture-agnostic 'prctls' to allow
userspace to control this feature.  They are:
 - PR_GET_INDIR_BR_LP_STATUS: Get the current configured status for indirect
   branch tracking.
 - PR_SET_INDIR_BR_LP_STATUS: Set the configuration for indirect branch
   tracking.
   The following status options are allowed:
       - PR_INDIR_BR_LP_ENABLE: Enables indirect branch tracking on user
         thread.
       - PR_INDIR_BR_LP_DISABLE: Disables indirect branch tracking on user
         thread.
 - PR_LOCK_INDIR_BR_LP_STATUS: Locks configured status for indirect branch
   tracking for user thread.

079212f687 vduse: add vq group asid support
Add support for assigning Address Space Identifiers (ASIDs) to each VQ
group.  This enables mapping each group into a distinct memory space.

The vq group to ASID association is protected by a rwlock now.  But the
mutex domain_lock keeps protecting the domains of all ASIDs, as some
operations like the one related with the bounce buffer size still
requires to lock all the ASIDs.

the beginning as they're needed for the DMA API.

Allocating 3 vq groups as net is the device that need the most groups:
* Dataplane (guest passthrough)
* CVQ
* Shadowed vrings.

Future versions of the series can include dynamic allocation of the
groups array so VDUSE can declare more groups.

a006ed4ecd vduse: add v1 API definition
This allows the kernel to detect whether the userspace VDUSE device
supports the VQ group and ASID features.  VDUSE devices that don't set
the V1 API will not receive the new messages, and vdpa device will be

The next patches implement the new feature incrementally, only enabling
the VDUSE device to set the V1 API version by the end of the series.

d42eb05e60 io_uring: add support for BPF filtering for opcode restrictions
Add support for loading classic BPF programs with io_uring to provide
fine-grained filtering of SQE operations. Unlike
IORING_REGISTER_RESTRICTIONS which only allows bitmap-based allow/deny
of opcodes, BPF filters can inspect request attributes and make dynamic
decisions.

The filter is registered via IORING_REGISTER_BPF_FILTER with a struct
io_uring_bpf:

struct io_uring_bpf_filter {
	__u32	opcode;		/* io_uring opcode to filter */
	__u32	flags;
	__u32	filter_len;	/* number of BPF instructions */
	__u32	resv;
	__u64	filter_ptr;	/* pointer to BPF filter */
	__u64	resv2[5];
};

enum {
	IO_URING_BPF_CMD_FILTER	= 1,
};

struct io_uring_bpf {
	__u16	cmd_type;	/* IO_URING_BPF_* values */
	__u16	cmd_flags;	/* none so far */
	__u32	resv;
	union {
		struct io_uring_bpf_filter	filter;
	};
};

and the filters get supplied a struct io_uring_bpf_ctx:

struct io_uring_bpf_ctx {
	__u64	user_data;
	__u8	opcode;
	__u8	sqe_flags;
	__u8	pdu_size;
	__u8	pad[5];
};

where it's possible to filter on opcode and sqe_flags, with pdu_size
indicating how much extra data is being passed in beyond the pad field.
This will used for specific finer grained filtering inside an opcode.
An example of that for sockets is in one of the following patches.
Anything the opcode supports can end up in this struct, populated by
the opcode itself, and hence can be filtered for.

Filters have the following semantics:
  - Return 1 to allow the request
  - Return 0 to deny the request with -EACCES
  - Multiple filters can be stacked per opcode. All filters must
    return 1 for the opcode to be allowed.
  - Filters are evaluated in registration order (most recent first)

The implementation uses classic BPF (cBPF) rather than eBPF for as
that's required for containers, and since they can be used by any
user in the system.

752b807028 bpf: add new BPF_CGROUP_ITER_CHILDREN control option
Currently, the BPF cgroup iterator supports walking descendants in
either pre-order (BPF_CGROUP_ITER_DESCENDANTS_PRE) or post-order
(BPF_CGROUP_ITER_DESCENDANTS_POST). These modes perform an exhaustive
depth-first search (DFS) of the hierarchy. In scenarios where a BPF
program may need to inspect only the direct children of a given parent
cgroup, a full DFS is unnecessarily expensive.

This patch introduces a new BPF cgroup iterator control option,
BPF_CGROUP_ITER_CHILDREN. This control option restricts the traversal
to the immediate children of a specified parent cgroup, allowing for
more targeted and efficient iteration, particularly when exhaustive
depth-first search (DFS) traversal is not required.

3d702678f5 mm/mempolicy: fix mpol_rebind_nodemask() for MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING
commit bda420b985 ("numa balancing: migrate on fault among multiple
bound nodes") adds new flag MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING to enable NUMA balancing
for MPOL_BIND memory policy.

When the cpuset of tasks changes, the mempolicy of the task is rebound by
mpol_rebind_nodemask().  When MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES and
MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES are both not set, the behaviour of rebinding should
be same whenever MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING is set or not.  So, when an
application calls set_mempolicy() with MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING set but both
MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES and MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES cleared,
mempolicy.w.cpuset_mems_allowed should be set to
cpuset_current_mems_allowed nodemask.  However, in current implementation,
mpol_store_user_nodemask() wrongly returns true, causing
mempolicy->w.user_nodemask to be incorrectly set to the user-specified
nodemask.  Later, when the cpuset of the application changes,
mpol_rebind_nodemask() ends up rebinding based on the user-specified
nodemask rather than the cpuset_mems_allowed nodemask as intended.

I can reproduce with the following steps in qemu with 4 NUMA nodes:
1. echo '+cpuset' > /sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup.subtree_control
2. mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
3. ./reproducer &
4. cat /proc/$pid/numa_maps, the task is bound to NUMA 1
5. echo $pid > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cgroup.procs
6. cat /proc/$pid/numa_maps, the task is bound to NUMA 0 now.

The reproducer code:

int main()
{
        struct bitmask *bmp;
        int ret;

        bmp = numa_parse_nodestring("1");
        ret = set_mempolicy(MPOL_BIND | MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING,
                bmp->maskp, bmp->size + 1);
        if (ret < 0) {
                perror("Failed to call set_mempolicy");
                exit(-1);
        }

        while (1);
        return 0;
}

If I call set_mempolicy() without MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING in the reproducer
code.  After step 5, the task is still bound to NUMA 1.

To fix this, only set mempolicy->w.user_nodemask to the user-specified
nodemask if MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES or MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES is present.

0ac903d1bf NFS: NFSERR_INVAL is not defined by NFSv2
A documenting comment in include/uapi/linux/nfs.h claims incorrectly
that NFSv2 defines NFSERR_INVAL. There is no such definition in either
RFC 1094 or https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9629799/chap7.htm

NFS3ERR_INVAL is introduced in RFC 1813.

NFSD returns NFSERR_INVAL for PROC_GETACL, which has no
specification (yet).

However, nfsd_map_status() maps nfserr_symlink and nfserr_wrong_type
to nfserr_inval, which does not align with RFC 1094. This logic was
introduced only recently by commit 438f81e0e9 ("nfsd: move error
choice for incorrect object types to version-specific code."). Given
that we have no INVAL or SERVERFAULT status in NFSv2, probably the
only choice is NFSERR_IO.

795663b4d1 io_uring/zcrx: implement large rx buffer support
There are network cards that support receive buffers larger than 4K, and
that can be vastly beneficial for performance, and benchmarks for this
patch showed up to 30% CPU util improvement for 32K vs 4K buffers.

Allows zcrx users to specify the size in struct
io_uring_zcrx_ifq_reg::rx_buf_len. If set to zero, zcrx will use a
default value. zcrx will check and fail if the memory backing the area
can't be split into physically contiguous chunks of the required size.
It's more restrictive as it only needs dma addresses to be contig, but
that's beyond this series.

fa9893fadb KVM: Introduce KVM_EXIT_SNP_REQ_CERTS for SNP certificate-fetching
For SEV-SNP, the host can optionally provide a certificate table to the
guest when it issues an attestation request to firmware (see GHCB 2.0
specification regarding "SNP Extended Guest Requests"). This certificate
table can then be used to verify the endorsement key used by firmware to
sign the attestation report.

While it is possible for guests to obtain the certificates through other
means, handling it via the host provides more flexibility in being able
to keep the certificate data in sync with the endorsement key throughout
host-side operations that might resulting in the endorsement key
changing.

In the case of KVM, userspace will be responsible for fetching the
certificate table and keeping it in sync with any modifications to the
endorsement key by other userspace management tools. Define a new
KVM_EXIT_SNP_REQ_CERTS event where userspace is provided with the GPA of
the buffer the guest has provided as part of the attestation request so
that userspace can write the certificate data into it while relying on
filesystem-based locking to keep the certificates up-to-date relative to
the endorsement keys installed/utilized by firmware at the time the
certificates are fetched.

[Melody: Update the documentation scheme about how file locking is
         expected to happen.]

e2723e6ce6 ublk: add new feature UBLK_F_BATCH_IO
Add new feature UBLK_F_BATCH_IO which replaces the following two
per-io commands:

	- UBLK_U_IO_FETCH_REQ

	- UBLK_U_IO_COMMIT_AND_FETCH_REQ

with three per-queue batch io uring_cmd:

	- UBLK_U_IO_PREP_IO_CMDS

	- UBLK_U_IO_COMMIT_IO_CMDS

	- UBLK_U_IO_FETCH_IO_CMDS

Then ublk can deliver batch io commands to ublk server in single
multishort uring_cmd, also allows to prepare & commit multiple
commands in batch style via single uring_cmd, communication cost is
reduced a lot.

This feature also doesn't limit task context any more for all supported
commands, so any allowed uring_cmd can be issued in any task context.
ublk server implementation becomes much easier.

Meantime load balance becomes much easier to support with this feature.
The command `UBLK_U_IO_FETCH_IO_CMDS` can be issued from multiple task
contexts, so each task can adjust this command's buffer length or number
of inflight commands for controlling how much load is handled by current
task.

Later, priority parameter will be added to command `UBLK_U_IO_FETCH_IO_CMDS`
for improving load balance support.

UBLK_U_IO_NEED_GET_DATA isn't supported in batch io yet, but it may be
enabled in future via its batch pair.

a4d8837553 ublk: add UBLK_U_IO_FETCH_IO_CMDS for batch I/O processing
Add UBLK_U_IO_FETCH_IO_CMDS command to enable efficient batch processing
of I/O requests. This multishot uring_cmd allows the ublk server to fetch
multiple I/O commands in a single operation, significantly reducing
submission overhead compared to individual FETCH_REQ* commands.

Key Design Features:

1. Multishot Operation: One UBLK_U_IO_FETCH_IO_CMDS can fetch many I/O
   commands, with the batch size limited by the provided buffer length.

2. Dynamic Load Balancing: Multiple fetch commands can be submitted
   simultaneously, but only one is active at any time. This enables
   efficient load distribution across multiple server task contexts.

3. Implicit State Management: The implementation uses three key variables
   to track state:
   - evts_fifo: Queue of request tags awaiting processing
   - fcmd_head: List of available fetch commands
   - active_fcmd: Currently active fetch command (NULL = none active)

   States are derived implicitly:
   - IDLE: No fetch commands available
   - READY: Fetch commands available, none active
   - ACTIVE: One fetch command processing events

4. Lockless Reader Optimization: The active fetch command can read from
   evts_fifo without locking (single reader guarantee), while writers
   (ublk_queue_rq/ublk_queue_rqs) use evts_lock protection. The memory
   barrier pairing plays key role for the single lockless reader
   optimization.

Implementation Details:

- ublk_queue_rq() and ublk_queue_rqs() save request tags to evts_fifo
- __ublk_acquire_fcmd() selects an available fetch command when
  events arrive and no command is currently active
- ublk_batch_dispatch() moves tags from evts_fifo to the fetch command's
  buffer and posts completion via io_uring_mshot_cmd_post_cqe()
- State transitions are coordinated via evts_lock to maintain consistency

b256795b36 ublk: handle UBLK_U_IO_PREP_IO_CMDS
This commit implements the handling of the UBLK_U_IO_PREP_IO_CMDS command,
which allows userspace to prepare a batch of I/O requests.

The core of this change is the `ublk_walk_cmd_buf` function, which iterates
over the elements in the uring_cmd fixed buffer. For each element, it parses
the I/O details, finds the corresponding `ublk_io` structure, and prepares it
for future dispatch.

Add per-io lock for protecting concurrent delivery and committing.

5247c034a6 io_uring: introduce non-circular SQ
Outside of SQPOLL, normally SQ entries are consumed by the time the
submission syscall returns. For those cases we don't need a circular
buffer and the head/tail tracking, instead the kernel can assume that
entries always start from the beginning of the SQ at index 0. This patch
introduces a setup flag doing exactly that. It's a simpler and helps
to keeps SQEs hot in cache.

The feature is optional and enabled by setting IORING_SETUP_SQ_REWIND.
The flag is rejected if passed together with SQPOLL as it'd require
waiting for SQ before each submission. It also requires
IORING_SETUP_NO_SQARRAY, which can be supported but it's unlikely there
will be users, so leave more space for future optimisations.

7c29ba0221 PCI: Introduce pcie_is_cxl()
CXL is a protocol that runs on top of PCIe electricals. Its error model
also runs on top of the PCIe AER error model by standardizing "internal"
errors as "CXL" errors. Linux has historically ignored internal errors.

CXL protocol error handling is then a task of enhancing the PCIe AER
core to understand that PCIe ports (upstream and downstream) and
endpoints may throw internal errors that represent standard CXL protocol
errors.

The proposed method to make that determination is to teach 'struct
pci_dev' to cache when its link has trained the CXL.mem and/or CXL.cache
protocols and then treat all internal errors as CXL errors. A design
goal is to not burden the PCIe AER core with CXL knowledge beyond just
enough to forward error notifications to the CXL RAS core. The forwarded
notification looks up a 'struct cxl_port' or 'struct cxl_dport'
companion device to the PCI device.

Introduce set_pcie_cxl() with logic checking for CXL.mem or CXL.cache
status in the CXL Flex Bus DVSEC status register. The CXL Flex Bus DVSEC
presence is used because it is required for all the CXL PCIe devices.[1]

6612bd9ff0 PCI: Update CXL DVSEC definitions
CXL DVSEC definitions were recently moved into uapi/pci_regs.h, but the
newly added macros do not follow the file's existing naming conventions.
The current format uses CXL_DVSEC_XYZ, while the new CXL entries must
instead use the PCI_DVSEC_CXL_XYZ prefix to match the conventions already
established in pci_regs.h.

The new CXL DVSEC macros also introduce _MASK and _OFFSET suffixes, which
are not used anywhere else in the file. These suffixes lengthen the
identifiers and reduce readability. Remove _MASK and _OFFSET from the
recently added definitions.

Additionally, remove PCI_DVSEC_HEADER1_LENGTH, as it duplicates the existing
PCI_DVSEC_HEADER1_LEN() macro.

Update all existing references to use the new macro names.

Finally, update the inline documentation to reference the latest revision
of the CXL specification.

f174a9ffcd KVM: arm64: Add exit to userspace on {LD,ST}64B* outside of memslots
The main use of {LD,ST}64B* is to talk to a device, which is hopefully
directly assigned to the guest and requires no additional handling.

However, this does not preclude a VMM from exposing a virtual device
to the guest, and to allow 64 byte accesses as part of the programming
interface. A direct consequence of this is that we need to be able
to forward such access to userspace.

Given that such a contraption is very unlikely to ever exist, we choose
to offer a limited service: userspace gets (as part of a new exit reason)
the ESR, the IPA, and that's it. It is fully expected to handle the full
semantics of the instructions, deal with ACCDATA, the return values and
increment PC. Much fun.

A canonical implementation can also simply inject an abort and be done
with it. Frankly, don't try to do anything else unless you have time
to waste.

28621ec2d4 rseq: Add prctl() to enable time slice extensions
Implement a prctl() so that tasks can enable the time slice extension
mechanism. This fails, when time slice extensions are disabled at compile
time or on the kernel command line and when no rseq pointer is registered
in the kernel.

That allows to implement a single trivial check in the exit to user mode
hotpath, to decide whether the whole mechanism needs to be invoked.

d7a5da7a0f rseq: Add fields and constants for time slice extension
Aside of a Kconfig knob add the following items:

   - Two flag bits for the rseq user space ABI, which allow user space to
     query the availability and enablement without a syscall.

   - A new member to the user space ABI struct rseq, which is going to be
     used to communicate request and grant between kernel and user space.

   - A rseq state struct to hold the kernel state of this

   - Documentation of the new mechanism

f5f2bad67a block: make the new blkzoned UAPI constants discoverable
The Linux 6.19 merge window added the new BLKREPORTZONESV2 ioctl, and
with it the new BLK_ZONE_REP_CACHED and BLK_ZONE_COND_ACTIVE constants.

The two constants are defined as part of enums, which makes it very
painful for userspace to discover if they are present in the installed
system headers.

Use the #define to the same name trick to make them trivially
discoverable using CPP directives.

Fixes: 0bf0e2e466 ("block: track zone conditions")
Fixes: b30ffcdc0c ("block: introduce BLKREPORTZONESV2 ioctl")

fa05705107 media: v4l2-ctrls: Add hevc_ext_sps_[ls]t_rps controls
The vdpu381 decoder found on newer Rockchip SoC need the information
from the long term and short term ref pic sets from the SPS.

So far, it wasn't included in the v4l2 API, so add it with new dynamic
sized controls.

Each element of the hevc_ext_sps_lt_rps array contains the long term ref
pic set at that index.
Each element of the hevc_ext_sps_st_rps contains the short term ref pic
set at that index, as the raw data.
It is the role of the drivers to calculate the reference sets values.

64dd89ae01 mm/block/fs: remove laptop_mode
Laptop mode was introduced to save battery, by delaying and consolidating
writes and thereby maximize the time rotating hard drives wouldn't have to
spin.

Luckily, rotating hard drives, with their high spin-up times and power
draw, are a thing of the past for battery-powered devices.  Reclaim has
also since changed to not write single filesystem pages anymore, and
regular filesystem writeback is lumpy by design.

The juice doesn't appear worth the squeeze anymore.  The footprint of the
feature is small, but nevertheless it's a complicating factor in mm,
block, filesystems.  Developers don't think about it, and it likely hasn't
been tested with new reclaim and writeback changes in years.

Let's sunset it.  Keep the sysctl with a deprecation warning around for a
few more cycles, but remove all functionality behind it.
