is a major new feature targeted at cloud environments. Quoting the
cover letter:
This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel
subsystem designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a
kexec-based reboot. This capability is critical for cloud
environments, allowing hypervisors to be updated with minimal
downtime for running virtual machines. LUO achieves this by
preserving the state of selected resources, such as memory,
devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition.
As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving
memfd file descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such
as guest RAM or any other large memory region, to be maintained in
RAM across the kexec reboot.
Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and
testing work.

Apparently as of version 2.42, glibc headers define AT_RENAME_NOREPLACE
and some of the other flags for renameat2() and friends in <stdio.h>.
Which would all be fine, except for inexplicable reasons glibc decided
to define them _differently_ from the kernel definitions, which then
makes some of our sample code that includes both kernel headers and user
space headers unhappy, because the compiler will (correctly) complain
about redefining things.
Now, mixing kernel headers and user space headers is always a somewhat
iffy proposition due to namespacing issues, but it's kind of inevitable
in our sample and selftest code. And this is just glibc being stupid.
Those defines come from the kernel, glibc is exposing the kernel
interfaces, and glibc shouldn't make up some random new expressions for
these values.
It's not like glibc headers changed the actual result values, but they
arbitrarily just decided to use a different expression to describe those
values. The kernel just does
#define AT_RENAME_NOREPLACE 0x0001
while glibc does
# define RENAME_NOREPLACE (1 << 0)
# define AT_RENAME_NOREPLACE RENAME_NOREPLACE
instead. Same value in the end, but very different macro definition.
For absolutely no reason.
This has since been fixed in the glibc development tree, so eventually
we'll end up with the canonical expressions and no clashes. But in the
meantime the broken headers are in the glibc-2.42 release and have made
it out into distributions.
Do a minimal work-around to make the samples build cleanly by just
undefining the affected macros in between the user space header include
and the kernel header includes.

Just using "%llx" instead of "%lx" is not sufficient, as uint64_t is
"long unsigned int" on some 64-bit platforms like arm64. Hence also
replace "uint64_t" by "__u64", which matches what most other samples
are already using.

Add a new "mountinfo" sample userland program that demonstrates how to
use statmount() and listmount() to get at the same info that
/proc/pid/mountinfo provides.
The output of the program tries to mimic the mountinfo procfile
contents. With the -p flag, it can be pointed at an arbitrary pid to
print out info about its mount namespace. With the -r flag it will
attempt to walk all of the namespaces under the pid's mount namespace
and dump out mount info from all of them.

To build host programs, you need to add the program names to 'hostprogs'
to use the necessary build rule, but it is not enough to build them
because there is no dependency.
There are two types of host programs: built as the prerequisite of
another (e.g. gen_crc32table in lib/Makefile), or always built when
Kbuild visits the Makefile (e.g. genksyms in scripts/genksyms/Makefile).
The latter is typical in Makefiles under scripts/, which contains host
programs globally used during the kernel build. To build them, you need
to add them to both 'hostprogs' and 'always-y'.
This commit adds hostprogs-always-y as a shorthand.
The same applies to user programs. net/bpfilter/Makefile builds
bpfilter_umh on demand, hence always-y is unneeded. In contrast,
programs under samples/ are added to both 'userprogs' and 'always-y'
so they are always built when Kbuild visits the Makefiles.
userprogs-always-y works as a shorthand.

These userspace programs include UAPI headers exported to usr/include/.
'make headers' always works for the target architecture (i.e. the same
architecture as the kernel), so the sample programs should be built for
the target as well. Kbuild now supports 'userprogs' for that.
I also guarded the CONFIG option by 'depends on CC_CAN_LINK' because
$(CC) may not provide libc.

Constants of the *_ALL type can be actively harmful due to the fact that
developers will usually fail to consider the possible effects of future
changes to the definition.
Deprecate STATX_ALL in the uapi, while no damage has been done yet.
We could keep something like this around in the kernel, but there's
actually no point, since all filesystems should be explicitly checking
flags that they support and not rely on the VFS masking unknown ones out: a
flag could be known to the VFS, yet not known to the filesystem.

In old days, the "host-progs" syntax was used for specifying host
programs. It was renamed to the current "hostprogs-y" in 2004.
It is typically useful in scripts/Makefile because it allows Kbuild to
selectively compile host programs based on the kernel configuration.
This commit renames like follows:
always -> always-y
hostprogs-y -> hostprogs
So, scripts/Makefile will look like this:
always-$(CONFIG_BUILD_BIN2C) += ...
always-$(CONFIG_KALLSYMS) += ...
...
hostprogs := $(always-y) $(always-m)
I think this makes more sense because a host program is always a host
program, irrespective of the kernel configuration. We want to specify
which ones to compile by CONFIG options, so always-y will be handier.
The "always", "hostprogs-y", "hostprogs-m" will be kept for backward
compatibility for a while.
