Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"Generic:
- Use memdup_array_user() to harden against overflow.
- Unconditionally advertise KVM_CAP_DEVICE_CTRL for all
architectures.
- Clean up Kconfigs that all KVM architectures were selecting
- New functionality around "guest_memfd", a new userspace API that
creates an anonymous file and returns a file descriptor that refers
to it. guest_memfd files are bound to their owning virtual machine,
cannot be mapped, read, or written by userspace, and cannot be
resized. guest_memfd files do however support PUNCH_HOLE, which can
be used to switch a memory area between guest_memfd and regular
anonymous memory.
- New ioctl KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES allowing userspace to specify
per-page attributes for a given page of guest memory; right now the
only attribute is whether the guest expects to access memory via
guest_memfd or not, which in Confidential SVMs backed by SEV-SNP,
TDX or ARM64 pKVM is checked by firmware or hypervisor that
guarantees confidentiality (AMD PSP, Intel TDX module, or EL2 in
the case of pKVM).
x86:
- Support for "software-protected VMs" that can use the new
guest_memfd and page attributes infrastructure. This is mostly
useful for testing, since there is no pKVM-like infrastructure to
provide a meaningfully reduced TCB.
- Fix a relatively benign off-by-one error when splitting huge pages
during CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG.
- Fix a bug where KVM could incorrectly test-and-clear dirty bits in
non-leaf TDP MMU SPTEs if a racing thread replaces a huge SPTE with
a non-huge SPTE.
- Use more generic lockdep assertions in paths that don't actually
care about whether the caller is a reader or a writer.
- let Xen guests opt out of having PV clock reported as "based on a
stable TSC", because some of them don't expect the "TSC stable" bit
(added to the pvclock ABI by KVM, but never set by Xen) to be set.
- Revert a bogus, made-up nested SVM consistency check for
TLB_CONTROL.
- Advertise flush-by-ASID support for nSVM unconditionally, as KVM
always flushes on nested transitions, i.e. always satisfies flush
requests. This allows running bleeding edge versions of VMware
Workstation on top of KVM.
- Sanity check that the CPU supports flush-by-ASID when enabling SEV
support.
- On AMD machines with vNMI, always rely on hardware instead of
intercepting IRET in some cases to detect unmasking of NMIs
- Support for virtualizing Linear Address Masking (LAM)
- Fix a variety of vPMU bugs where KVM fail to stop/reset counters
and other state prior to refreshing the vPMU model.
- Fix a double-overflow PMU bug by tracking emulated counter events
using a dedicated field instead of snapshotting the "previous"
counter. If the hardware PMC count triggers overflow that is
recognized in the same VM-Exit that KVM manually bumps an event
count, KVM would pend PMIs for both the hardware-triggered overflow
and for KVM-triggered overflow.
- Turn off KVM_WERROR by default for all configs so that it's not
inadvertantly enabled by non-KVM developers, which can be
problematic for subsystems that require no regressions for W=1
builds.
- Advertise all of the host-supported CPUID bits that enumerate
IA32_SPEC_CTRL "features".
- Don't force a masterclock update when a vCPU synchronizes to the
current TSC generation, as updating the masterclock can cause
kvmclock's time to "jump" unexpectedly, e.g. when userspace
hotplugs a pre-created vCPU.
- Use RIP-relative address to read kvm_rebooting in the VM-Enter
fault paths, partly as a super minor optimization, but mostly to
make KVM play nice with position independent executable builds.
- Guard KVM-on-HyperV's range-based TLB flush hooks with an #ifdef on
CONFIG_HYPERV as a minor optimization, and to self-document the
code.
- Add CONFIG_KVM_HYPERV to allow disabling KVM support for HyperV
"emulation" at build time.
ARM64:
- LPA2 support, adding 52bit IPA/PA capability for 4kB and 16kB base
granule sizes. Branch shared with the arm64 tree.
- Large Fine-Grained Trap rework, bringing some sanity to the
feature, although there is more to come. This comes with a prefix
branch shared with the arm64 tree.
- Some additional Nested Virtualization groundwork, mostly
introducing the NV2 VNCR support and retargetting the NV support to
that version of the architecture.
- A small set of vgic fixes and associated cleanups.
Loongarch:
- Optimization for memslot hugepage checking
- Cleanup and fix some HW/SW timer issues
- Add LSX/LASX (128bit/256bit SIMD) support
RISC-V:
- KVM_GET_REG_LIST improvement for vector registers
- Generate ISA extension reg_list using macros in get-reg-list
selftest
- Support for reporting steal time along with selftest
s390:
- Bugfixes
Selftests:
- Fix an annoying goof where the NX hugepage test prints out garbage
instead of the magic token needed to run the test.
- Fix build errors when a header is delete/moved due to a missing
flag in the Makefile.
- Detect if KVM bugged/killed a selftest's VM and print out a helpful
message instead of complaining that a random ioctl() failed.
- Annotate the guest printf/assert helpers with __printf(), and fix
the various bugs that were lurking due to lack of said annotation"

Pull afs updates from David Howells:
"The majority of the patches are aimed at fixing and improving the AFS
filesystem's rotation over server IP addresses, but there are also
some fixes from Oleg Nesterov for the use of read_seqbegin_or_lock().
- Fix fileserver probe handling so that the next round of probes
doesn't break ongoing server/address rotation by clearing all the
probe result tracking. This could occasionally cause the rotation
algorithm to drop straight through, give a 'successful' result
without actually emitting any RPC calls, leaving the reply buffer
in an undefined state.
Instead, detach the probe results into a separate struct and
allocate a new one each time we start probing and update the
pointer to it. Probes are also sent in order of address preference
to try and improve the chance that the preferred one will complete
first.
- Fix server rotation so that it uses configurable address
preferences across on the probes that have completed so far than
ranking them by RTT as the latter doesn't necessarily give the best
route. The preference list can be altered by writing into
/proc/net/afs/addr_prefs.
- Fix the handling of Read-Only (and Backup) volume callbacks as
there is one per volume, not one per file, so if someone performs a
command that, say, offlines the volume but doesn't change it, when
it comes back online we don't spam the server with a status fetch
for every vnode we're using. Instead, check the Creation timestamp
in the VolSync record when prompted by a callback break.
- Handle volume regression (ie. a RW volume being restored from a
backup) by scrubbing all cache data for that volume. This is
detected from the VolSync creation timestamp.
- Adjust abort handling and abort -> error mapping to match better
with what other AFS clients do.
- Fix offline and busy volume state handling as they only apply to
individual server instances and not entire volumes and the rotation
algorithm should go and look at other servers if available. Also
make it sleep briefly before each retry if all the volume instances
are unavailable"

Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
"There are no exciting changes for users, it's been mostly API
conversions and some fixes or refactoring.
The mount API conversion is a base for future improvements that would
come with VFS. Metadata processing has been converted to folios, not
yet enabling the large folios but it's one patch away once everything
gets tested enough.
Core changes:
- convert extent buffers to folios:
- direct API conversion where possible
- performance can drop by a few percent on metadata heavy
workloads, the folio sizes are not constant and the calculations
add up in the item helpers
- both regular and subpage modes
- data cannot be converted yet, we need to port that to iomap and
there are some other generic changes required
- convert mount to the new API, should not be user visible:
- options deprecated long time ago have been removed: inode_cache,
recovery
- the new logic that splits mount to two phases slightly changes
timing of device scanning for multi-device filesystems
- LSM options will now work (like for selinux)
- convert delayed nodes radix tree to xarray, preserving the
preload-like logic that still allows to allocate with GFP_NOFS
- more validation of sysfs value of scrub_speed_max
- refactor chunk map structure, reduce size and improve performance
- extent map refactoring, smaller data structures, improved
performance
- reduce size of struct extent_io_tree, embedded in several
structures
- temporary pages used for compression are cached and attached to a
shrinker, this may slightly improve performance
- in zoned mode, remove redirty extent buffer tracking, zeros are
written in case an out-of-order is detected and proper data are
written to the actual write pointer
- cleanups, refactoring, error message improvements, updated tests
- verify and update branch name or tag
- remove unwanted text"

Once a set of RDMA Reads are complete, the Read completion handler
will poke the transport to trigger a second call to
svc_rdma_recvfrom(). recvfrom() will then merge the RDMA Read
payloads with the previously received RPC header to form a completed

The new code is copied from the svc_rdma_process_read_list() path.
A subsequent patch will make use of this code and remove the code
that this was copied from (svc_rdma_rw.c).

KVM/riscv changes for 6.8 part #1
- KVM_GET_REG_LIST improvement for vector registers
- Generate ISA extension reg_list using macros in get-reg-list selftest
- Steal time account support along with selftest
Fix the fileserver rotation so that it doesn't use RTT as the basis for
deciding which server and address to use as this doesn't necessarily give a
good indication of the best path. Instead, use the configurable preference
list in conjunction with whatever probes have succeeded at the time of
looking.
To this end, make the following changes:
(1) Keep an array of "server states" to track what addresses we've tried
on each server and move the waitqueue entries there that we'll need
for probing.
(2) Each afs_server_state struct is made to pin the corresponding server's
endpoint state rather than the afs_operation struct carrying a pin on
the server we're currently looking at.
(3) Drop the server list preference; we now always rescan the server list.
(4) afs_wait_for_probes() now uses the server state list to guide it in
what it waits for (and to provide the waitqueue entries) and returns
an indication of whether we'd got a response, run out of responsive
addresses or the endpoint state had been superseded and we need to
restart the iteration.
(5) Call afs_get_address_preferences*() occasionally to refresh the
preference values.
(6) When picking a server, scan the addresses of the servers for which we
have as-yet untested communications, looking for the highest priority
one and use that instead of trying all the addresses for a particular
server in ascending-RTT order.
(7) When a Busy or Offline state is seen across all available servers, do
a short sleep.

Overhaul the third party-induced invalidation handling, making use of the
previously added volume-level event counters (cb_scrub and cb_ro_snapshot)
that are now being parsed out of the VolSync record returned by the
fileserver in many of its replies.
This allows better handling of RO (and Backup) volumes. Since these are
snapshot of a RW volume that are updated atomically simultantanously across
all servers that host them, they only require a single callback promise for
the entire volume. The currently upstream code assumes that RO volumes
operate in the same manner as RW volumes, and that each file has its own
individual callback - which means that it does a status fetch for *every*
file in a RO volume, whether or not the volume got "released" (volume
callback breaks can occur for other reasons too, such as the volumeserver
taking ownership of a volume from a fileserver).
To this end, make the following changes:
(1) Change the meaning of the volume's cb_v_break counter so that it is
now a hint that we need to issue a status fetch to work out the state
of a volume. cb_v_break is incremented by volume break callbacks and
by server initialisation callbacks.
(2) Add a second counter, cb_v_check, to the afs_volume struct such that
if this differs from cb_v_break, we need to do a check. When the
check is complete, cb_v_check is advanced to what cb_v_break was at
the start of the status fetch.
(3) Move the list of mmap'd vnodes to the volume and trigger removal of
PTEs that map to files on a volume break rather than on a server
break.
(4) When a server reinitialisation callback comes in, use the
server-to-volume reverse mapping added in a preceding patch to iterate
over all the volumes using that server and clear the volume callback
promises for that server and the general volume promise as a whole to
trigger reanalysis.
(5) Replace the AFS_VNODE_CB_PROMISED flag with an AFS_NO_CB_PROMISE
(TIME64_MIN) value in the cb_expires_at field, reducing the number of
checks we need to make.
(6) Change afs_check_validity() to quickly see if various event counters
have been incremented or if the vnode or volume callback promise is
due to expire/has expired without making any changes to the state.
That is now left to afs_validate() as this may get more complicated in
future as we may have to examine server records too.
(7) Overhaul afs_validate() so that it does a single status fetch if we
need to check the state of either the vnode or the volume - and do so
under appropriate locking. The function does the following steps:
(A) If the vnode/volume is no longer seen as valid, then we take the
vnode validation lock and, if the volume promise has expired, the
volume check lock also. The latter prevents redundant checks being
made to find out if a new version of the volume got released.
(B) If a previous RPC call found that the volsync changed unexpectedly
or that a RO volume was updated, then we unmap all PTEs pointing to
the file to stop mmap being used for access.
(C) If the vnode is still seen to be of uncertain validity, then we
perform an FS.FetchStatus RPC op to jointly update the volume status
and the vnode status. This assessment is done as part of parsing the
reply:
If the RO volume creation timestamp advances, cb_ro_snapshot is
incremented; if either the creation or update timestamps changes in
an unexpected way, the cb_scrub counter is incremented
If the Data Version returned doesn't match the copy we have
locally, then we ask for the pagecache to be zapped. This takes
care of handling RO update.
(D) If cb_scrub differs between volume and vnode, the vnode's
pagecache is zapped and the vnode's cb_scrub is updated unless the
file is marked as having been deleted.

A number of fileserver RPC operations return a VolSync record as part of
their reply that gives some information about the state of the volume being
accessed, including:
(1) A volume Creation timestamp. For an RW volume, this is the time at
which the volume was created; if it changes, the RW volume was
presumably restored from a backup and all cached data should be
scrubbed as Data Version numbers could regress on the files in the
volume.
For an RO volume, this is the time it was last snapshotted from the RW
volume. It is expected to advance each time this happens; if it
regresses, cached data should be scrubbed.
(2) A volume Update timestamp (Auristor only). For an RW volume, this is
updated any time any change is made to a volume or its contents. If
it regresses, all cached data must be scrubbed.
For an RO volume, this is a copy of the RW volume's Update timestamp
at the point of snapshotting. It can be used as a version number when
checking to see if a callback on a RO volume was due to a snapshot.
If it regresses, all cached data must be scrubbed.
but this is currently not made use of by the in-kernel afs filesystem.
Make the afs filesystem use this by:
(1) Add an update time field to the afs_volsync struct and use a value of
TIME64_MIN in both that and the creation time to indicate that they
are unset.
(2) Add creation and update time fields to the afs_volume struct and use
this to track the two timestamps.
(3) Add a volsync_lock mutex to the afs_volume struct to control
modification access for when we detect a change in these values.
(3) Add a 'pre-op volsync' struct to the afs_operation struct to record
the state of the volume tracking before the op.
(4) Add a new counter, cb_scrub, to the afs_volume struct to count events
that require all data to be scrubbed. A copy is placed in the
afs_vnode struct (inode) and if they no longer match, a scrub takes
place.
(5) When the result of an operation is being parsed, parse the VolSync
data too, if it is provided. Note that the two timestamps are handled
separately, since they don't work in quite the same way.
- If the afs_volume tracking is unset, just set it and do nothing
else.
- If the result timestamps are the same as the ones in afs_volume, do
nothing.
- If the timestamps regress, increment cb_scrub if not already done
so.
- If the creation timestamp on a RW volume changes, increment cb_scrub
if not already done so.
- If the creation timestamp on a RO volume advances, update the server
list and see if the current server has been excluded, if so reissue
the op. Once over half of the replication sites have been updated,
increment cb_ro_snapshot to indicate updates may be required and
switch over to excluding unupdated replication sites.
- If the creation timestamp on a Backup volume advances, just
increment cb_ro_snapshot to trigger updates.

Apply server breaks to mmap'd files that are being used from that server
from the call processor work function rather than punting it off to a
workqueue. The work item, afs_server_init_callback(), then bumps each
individual inode off to its own work item introducing a potentially lengthy
delay. This reduces that delay at the cost of extending the amount of time
we delay replying to the CB.InitCallBack3 notification RPC from the server.

Keep a record of the current fileserver endpoint state, including the probe
state, and replace it when a new probe is started rather than just
squelching the old state and overwriting it. Clearance of the old state
can cause a race if there's another thread also currently trying to
communicate with that server.
It appears that this race might be the culprit for some occasions where
kafs complains about invalid data in the RPC reply because the rotation
algorithm fell all the way through without actually issuing an RPC call and
the error return got filled in from the probe state (which has a zero error
recorded). Whatever happens to be in the caller's reply buffer is then
taken as the response.

Change rxrpc's API such that:
(1) A new function, rxrpc_kernel_lookup_peer(), is provided to look up an
rxrpc_peer record for a remote address and a corresponding function,
rxrpc_kernel_put_peer(), is provided to dispose of it again.
(2) When setting up a call, the rxrpc_peer object used during a call is
now passed in rather than being set up by rxrpc_connect_call(). For
afs, this meenat passing it to rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() rather than
the full address (the service ID then has to be passed in as a
separate parameter).
(3) A new function, rxrpc_kernel_remote_addr(), is added so that afs can
get a pointer to the transport address for display purposed, and
another, rxrpc_kernel_remote_srx(), to gain a pointer to the full
rxrpc address.
(4) The function to retrieve the RTT from a call, rxrpc_kernel_get_srtt(),
is then altered to take a peer. This now returns the RTT or -1 if
there are insufficient samples.
(5) Rename rxrpc_kernel_get_peer() to rxrpc_kernel_call_get_peer().
(6) Provide a new function, rxrpc_kernel_get_peer(), to get a ref on a
peer the caller already has.
This allows the afs filesystem to pin the rxrpc_peer records that it is
using, allowing faster lookups and pointer comparisons rather than
comparing sockaddr_rxrpc contents. It also makes it easier to get hold of
the RTT. The following changes are made to afs:
(1) The addr_list struct's addrs[] elements now hold a peer struct pointer
and a service ID rather than a sockaddr_rxrpc.
(2) When displaying the transport address, rxrpc_kernel_remote_addr() is
used.
(3) The port arg is removed from afs_alloc_addrlist() since it's always
overridden.
(4) afs_merge_fs_addr4() and afs_merge_fs_addr6() do peer lookup and may
now return an error that must be handled.
(5) afs_find_server() now takes a peer pointer to specify the address.
(6) afs_find_server(), afs_compare_fs_alists() and afs_merge_fs_addr[46]{}
now do peer pointer comparison rather than address comparison.

For starting a timer, the timer is enqueued into a bucket of the timer
wheel. The bucket expiry is the defacto expiry of the timer but it is not
equal the timer expiry because of increasing granularity when bucket is in
a higher level of the wheel. To be able to figure out in a trace whether a
timer expired in time or not, the bucket expiry time is required as well.
Add bucket expiry time to the timer_start tracepoint and thereby simplify
the arguments.

Currently, in struct extent_map, we use an unsigned int (32 bits) to
identify the compression type of an extent and an unsigned long (64 bits
on a 64 bits platform, 32 bits otherwise) for flags. We are only using
6 different flags, so an unsigned long is excessive and we can use flags
to identify the compression type instead of using a dedicated 32 bits
field.
We can easily have tens or hundreds of thousands (or more) of extent maps
on busy and large filesystems, specially with compression enabled or many
or large files with tons of small extents. So it's convenient to have the
extent_map structure as small as possible in order to use less memory.
So remove the compression type field from struct extent_map, use flags
to identify the compression type and shorten the flags field from an
unsigned long to a u32. This saves 8 bytes (on 64 bits platforms) and
reduces the size of the structure from 136 bytes down to 128 bytes, using
now only two cache lines, and increases the number of extent maps we can
have per 4K page from 30 to 32. By using a u32 for the flags instead of
an unsigned long, we no longer use test_bit(), set_bit() and clear_bit(),
but that level of atomicity is not needed as most flags are never cleared
once set (before adding an extent map to the tree), and the ones that can
be cleared or set after an extent map is added to the tree, are always
performed while holding the write lock on the extent map tree, while the
reader holds a lock on the tree or tests for a flag that never changes
once the extent map is in the tree (such as compression flags).

The extent_io_tree is embedded in several structures, notably in struct

reference in trace points. We can get to the pointer through the inode,
but not all io trees set it. However, we always know the owner and
can recognize if inode is valid. For access helpers are provided, const
variant for the trace points.
This reduces size of extent_io_tree by 8 bytes and following structures

Currently we abuse the extent_map structure for two purposes:
1) To actually represent extents for inodes;
2) To represent chunk mappings.
This is odd and has several disadvantages:
1) To create a chunk map, we need to do two memory allocations: one for
an extent_map structure and another one for a map_lookup structure, so
more potential for an allocation failure and more complicated code to
manage and link two structures;
2) For a chunk map we actually only use 3 fields (24 bytes) of the
respective extent map structure: the 'start' field to have the logical
start address of the chunk, the 'len' field to have the chunk's size,
and the 'orig_block_len' field to contain the chunk's stripe size.
Besides wasting a memory, it's also odd and not intuitive at all to
have the stripe size in a field named 'orig_block_len'.
We are also using 'block_len' of the extent_map structure to contain
the chunk size, so we have 2 fields for the same value, 'len' and
'block_len', which is pointless;
3) When an extent map is associated to a chunk mapping, we set the bit
EXTENT_FLAG_FS_MAPPING on its flags and then make its member named
'map_lookup' point to the associated map_lookup structure. This means
that for an extent map associated to an inode extent, we are not using
this 'map_lookup' pointer, so wasting 8 bytes (on a 64 bits platform);
4) Extent maps associated to a chunk mapping are never merged or split so
it's pointless to use the existing extent map infrastructure.
So add a dedicated data structure named 'btrfs_chunk_map' to represent
chunk mappings, this is basically the existing map_lookup structure with
some extra fields:
1) 'start' to contain the chunk logical address;
2) 'chunk_len' to contain the chunk's length;
3) 'stripe_size' for the stripe size;
4) 'rb_node' for insertion into a rb tree;
5) 'refs' for reference counting.
This way we do a single memory allocation for chunk mappings and we don't
waste memory for them with unused/unnecessary fields from an extent_map.
We also save 8 bytes from the extent_map structure by removing the
'map_lookup' pointer, so the size of struct extent_map is reduced from
144 bytes down to 136 bytes, and we can now have 30 extents map per 4K
page instead of 28.

An out of bounds read can occur within the tracepoint 9p_protocol_dump. In
the fast assign, there is a memcpy that uses a constant size of 32 (macro
named P9_PROTO_DUMP_SZ). When the copy is invoked, the source buffer is not
guaranteed match this size. It was found that in some cases the source
buffer size is less than 32, resulting in a read that overruns.
The size of the source buffer seems to be known at the time of the
tracepoint being invoked. The allocations happen within p9_fcall_init(),
where the capacity field is set to the allocated size of the payload
buffer. This patch tries to fix the overrun by changing the fixed array to
a dynamically sized array and using the minimum of the capacity value or
P9_PROTO_DUMP_SZ as its length. The trace log statement is adjusted to
account for this. Note that the trace log no longer splits the payload on
the first 16 bytes. The full payload is now logged to a single line.
To repro the orignal problem, operations to a plan 9 managed resource can
be used. The simplest approach might just be mounting a shared filesystem
(between host and guest vm) using the plan 9 protocol while the tracepoint
is enabled.
mount -t 9p -o trans=virtio <mount_tag> <mount_path>
The bpftrace program below can be used to show the out of bounds read.

Pull SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
"Updates to the usual drivers (ufs, megaraid_sas, lpfc, target, ibmvfc,
scsi_debug) plus the usual assorted minor fixes and updates.
The major change this time around is a prep patch for rethreading of
the driver reset handler API not to take a scsi_cmd structure which
starts to reduce various drivers' dependence on scsi_cmd in error
handling"

Pull ia64 removal and asm-generic updates from Arnd Bergmann:
- The ia64 architecture gets its well-earned retirement as planned,
now that there is one last (mostly) working release that will be
maintained as an LTS kernel.
- The architecture specific system call tables are updated for the
added map_shadow_stack() syscall and to remove references to the
long-gone sys_lookup_dcookie() syscall.
