Similar to the ARM64 commit 3505f30fb6a9s ("ARM64 / ACPI: If we chose
to boot from acpi then disable FDT"), let's not do DT hardware probing
if ACPI is enabled in early boot. This avoids errors caused by
repeated driver probing.

[pjw@kernel.org: cleaned up patch description and subject]
Signed-off-by: Paul Walmsley <pjw@kernel.org>
When adding a kprobe such as "p:probe/tcp_sendmsg _text+15392192",
arch_check_kprobe would start iterating all instructions starting from
_text until the probed address. Not only is this very inefficient, but
literal values in there (e.g. left by function patching) are
misinterpreted in a way that causes a desync.
Fix this by doing it like x86: start the iteration at the closest
preceding symbol instead of the given starting point.

openSBI v1.7 adds harts checks for ipi operations. Especially it
adds comparison between hmask passed as an argument from linux
and mask of online harts (from openSBI side). If they don't
fit each other the error occurs.
When cpu is offline, cpu_online_mask is explicitly cleared in
__cpu_disable. However, there is no explicit clearing of
mm_cpumask. mm_cpumask is used for rfence operations that
call openSBI RFENCE extension which uses ipi to remote harts.
If hart is offline there may be error if mask of linux is not
as mask of online harts in openSBI.
this patch adds explicit clearing of mm_cpumask for offline hart.

The current value of BUFMAX is similar as in other architectures, but as
per documentation on KGDB (see
'Documentation/process/debugging/kgdb.rst'), BUFMAX has to be larger
than NUMREGBYTES.
Some NUMREGBYTES architectures (e.g. powerpc or hexagon) actually define
BUFMAX in relation to NUMREGBYTES, and thus this condition is always
guaranteed. Since 2048 is a value that is generally accepted on all
architectures, and that is larger than the current value of NUMREGBYTES,
we can keep this value in arch/riscv, but we can at least add an
'static_assert' as an extra measure just in case NUMREGBYTES changes in
the future for some unforseen reason.

Pull more RISC-V updates from Paul Walmsley:
- Support for the RISC-V-standardized RPMI interface.
RPMI is a platform management communication mechanism between OSes
running on application processors, and a remote platform management
processor. Similar to ARM SCMI, TI SCI, etc. This includes irqchip,
mailbox, and clk changes.
- Support for the RISC-V-standardized MPXY SBI extension.
MPXY is a RISC-V-specific standard implementing a shared memory
mailbox between S-mode operating systems (e.g., Linux) and M-mode
firmware (e.g., OpenSBI). It is part of this PR since one of its use
cases is to enable M-mode firmware to act as a single RPMI client for
all RPMI activity on a core (including S-mode RPMI activity).
Includes a mailbox driver.
- Some ACPI-related updates to enable the use of RPMI and MPXY.
- The addition of Linux-wide memcpy_{from,to}_le32() static inline
functions, for RPMI use.
- An ACPI Kconfig change to enable boot logos on any ACPI-using
architecture (including RISC-V)
- A RISC-V defconfig change to add GPIO keyboard and event device
support, for front panel shutdown or reboot buttons

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"This excludes the bulk of the x86 changes, which I will send
separately. They have two not complex but relatively unusual conflicts
so I will wait for other dust to settle.
guest_memfd:
- Add support for host userspace mapping of guest_memfd-backed memory
for VM types that do NOT use support KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE
(which isn't precisely the same thing as CoCo VMs, since x86's
SEV-MEM and SEV-ES have no way to detect private vs. shared).
This lays the groundwork for removal of guest memory from the
kernel direct map, as well as for limited mmap() for
guest_memfd-backed memory.
For more information see:
- commit a6ad54137a ("Merge branch 'guest-memfd-mmap' into HEAD")
- guest_memfd in Firecracker:
https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/tree/feature/secret-hiding

- mmap support:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250328153133.3504118-1-tabba@google.com/
ARM:
- Add support for FF-A 1.2 as the secure memory conduit for pKVM,
allowing more registers to be used as part of the message payload.
- Change the way pKVM allocates its VM handles, making sure that the
privileged hypervisor is never tricked into using uninitialised
data.
- Speed up MMIO range registration by avoiding unnecessary RCU
synchronisation, which results in VMs starting much quicker.
- Add the dump of the instruction stream when panic-ing in the EL2
payload, just like the rest of the kernel has always done. This
will hopefully help debugging non-VHE setups.
- Add 52bit PA support to the stage-1 page-table walker, and make use
of it to populate the fault level reported to the guest on failing
to translate a stage-1 walk.
- Add NV support to the GICv3-on-GICv5 emulation code, ensuring
feature parity for guests, irrespective of the host platform.
- Fix some really ugly architecture problems when dealing with debug
in a nested VM. This has some bad performance impacts, but is at
least correct.
- Add enough infrastructure to be able to disable EL2 features and
give effective values to the EL2 control registers. This then
allows a bunch of features to be turned off, which helps cross-host
migration.
- Large rework of the selftest infrastructure to allow most tests to
transparently run at EL2. This is the first step towards enabling
NV testing.
- Various fixes and improvements all over the map, including one BE
fix, just in time for the removal of the feature.
LoongArch:
- Detect page table walk feature on new hardware
- Add sign extension with kernel MMIO/IOCSR emulation
- Improve in-kernel IPI emulation
- Improve in-kernel PCH-PIC emulation
- Move kvm_iocsr tracepoint out of generic code
RISC-V:
- Added SBI FWFT extension for Guest/VM with misaligned delegation
and pointer masking PMLEN features
- Added ONE_REG interface for SBI FWFT extension
- Added Zicbop and bfloat16 extensions for Guest/VM
- Enabled more common KVM selftests for RISC-V
- Added SBI v3.0 PMU enhancements in KVM and perf driver
s390:
- Improve interrupt cpu for wakeup, in particular the heuristic to
decide which vCPU to deliver a floating interrupt to.
- Clear the PTE when discarding a swapped page because of CMMA; this
bug was introduced in 6.16 when refactoring gmap code.
x86 selftests:
- Add #DE coverage in the fastops test (the only exception that's
guest- triggerable in fastop-emulated instructions).
- Fix PMU selftests errors encountered on Granite Rapids (GNR),
Sierra Forest (SRF) and Clearwater Forest (CWF).
- Minor cleanups and improvements
x86 (guest side):
- For the legacy PCI hole (memory between TOLUD and 4GiB) to UC when
overriding guest MTRR for TDX/SNP to fix an issue where ACPI
auto-mapping could map devices as WB and prevent the device drivers
from mapping their devices with UC/UC-.
- Make kvm_async_pf_task_wake() a local static helper and remove its
export.
- Use native qspinlocks when running in a VM with dedicated
vCPU=>pCPU bindings even when PV_UNHALT is unsupported.
Generic:
- Remove a redundant __GFP_NOWARN from kvm_setup_async_pf() as
__GFP_NOWARN is now included in GFP_NOWAIT.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core & protocols:
- Improve drop account scalability on NUMA hosts for RAW and UDP
sockets and the backlog, almost doubling the Pps capacity under DoS
- Optimize the UDP RX performance under stress, reducing contention,
revisiting the binary layout of the involved data structs and
implementing NUMA-aware locking. This improves UDP RX performance
by an additional 50%, even more under extreme conditions
- Add support for PSP encryption of TCP connections; this mechanism
has some similarities with IPsec and TLS, but offers superior HW
offloads capabilities
- Ongoing work to support Accurate ECN for TCP. AccECN allows more
than one congestion notification signal per RTT and is a building
block for Low Latency, Low Loss, and Scalable Throughput (L4S)
- Reorganize the TCP socket binary layout for data locality, reducing
the number of touched cachelines in the fastpath
- Refactor skb deferral free to better scale on large multi-NUMA
hosts, this improves TCP and UDP RX performances significantly on
such HW
- Increase the default socket memory buffer limits from 256K to 4M to
better fit modern link speeds
- Improve handling of setups with a large number of nexthop, making
dump operating scaling linearly and avoiding unneeded
synchronize_rcu() on delete
- Improve bridge handling of VLAN FDB, storing a single entry per
bridge instead of one entry per port; this makes the dump order of
magnitude faster on large switches
- Restore IP ID correctly for encapsulated packets at GSO
segmentation time, allowing GRO to merge packets in more scenarios
- Improve netfilter matching performance on large sets
- Improve MPTCP receive path performance by leveraging recently
introduced core infrastructure (skb deferral free) and adopting
recent TCP autotuning changes
- Allow bridges to redirect to a backup port when the bridge port is
administratively down
- Introduce MPTCP 'laminar' endpoint that con be used only once per
connection and simplify common MPTCP setups
- Add RCU safety to dst->dev, closing a lot of possible races
- A significant crypto library API for SCTP, MPTCP and IPv6 SR,
reducing code duplication
- Supports pulling data from an skb frag into the linear area of an
XDP buffer
Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
- Generate netlink documentation from YAML using an integrated YAML
parser
Driver API:
- Support using IPv6 Flow Label in Rx hash computation and RSS queue
selection
- Introduce API for fetching the DMA device for a given queue,
allowing TCP zerocopy RX on more H/W setups
- Make XDP helpers compatible with unreadable memory, allowing more
easily building DevMem-enabled drivers with a unified XDP/skbs
datapath
- Add a new dedicated ethtool callback enabling drivers to provide
the number of RX rings directly, improving efficiency and clarity
in RX ring queries and RSS configuration
- Introduce a burst period for the health reporter, allowing better
handling of multiple errors due to the same root cause
- Support for DPLL phase offset exponential moving average,
controlling the average smoothing factor
Device drivers:
- Add a new Huawei driver for 3rd gen NIC (hinic3)
- Add a new SpacemiT driver for K1 ethernet MAC

Pull SoC dt updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"There are five sets of new SoCs that get added in existing families,
all of them being either upgrades or cut-down versions of the older
chips:
- Apple M2 Pro, M2 Max and M2 Ultra, used in the 2022/2023 generation
of high-end workstations and laptops from Apple. Linux has been
working on these for a while but stil requires patches.
- Axis Artpec8 is an Armv8 chip based on Samsung Exynos design,
unlike the earlier Armv7 Artpec6 from the same company that was
part of a separate family of chips.
- NXP i.MX91 is a cut-down version of i.MX93, using only a single
Cortex-A55 core.
- Qualcomm Lemans Auto is a variant of the Lemans SoC that was
originally merged under the sa8775p name, the differences being
mostly the firmware configuration of the platform.
- Four new Renesas SoCs RZ/T2H (r9a09g077m44), RZ/N2H (r9a09g087m44),
RZ/T2H (r9a09g077), and RZ/N2H (r9a09g087) are all industrial
bedded SoCs based on Cortex-A55 cores
In total, there are 65 new machines, including:
- Industrial embedded system and single-board computers based on NXP,
Allwinner, TI, Rockchips, Marvell, Xilinx Spacemit, Starfive chips.
- Reference boards for the newly added Renesas, Qualcomm, NXP and
Axis ARMv8 chips as well as Microchip's MPFS RISC-V SoC
- Laptops and Workstations using Apple M2 and Qualcomm Snapdragon X1
chips.
- Several Samsung phones using Qualcomm Snapdragon chips
- Set-top boxes based on Allwinner H313
- Five BMC boards using 32-bit ASpeed SoCs
- Three network routers using IXP4xx (ARMv5!) and Broadcom bcm4708
(ARMv7) SoCs
Two machines get phased out because they were available only in small
quantities but never made it into products: one STi407 based reference
board, and a Snapdragon 845 based Chromebook.
Aside from the newly added machines, a lot of work went into improving
hardware support on the existing machines and cleaning up contents for

Pull irq chip driver updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Use the startup/shutdown callbacks for the PCI/MSI per device
interrupt domains.
This allows us to initialize the RISCV PLIC interrupt hierarchy
correctly and provides a mechanism to decouple the masking and
unmasking during run-time from the expensive PCI mask and unmask when
the underlying MSI provider implementation allows the interrupt to be
masked.
- Initialize the RISCV PLIC MSI interrupt hierarchy correctly so that
the affinity assignment works correctly by switching it over to the
startup/shutdown scheme
- Allow MSI providers to opt out from masking a PCI/MSI interrupt at
the PCI device during operation when the provider can mask the
interrupt at the underlying interrupt chip. This reduces the overhead
in scenarios where disable_irq()/enable_irq() is utilized frequently
by a driver.
The PCI/MSI device level [un]masking is only required on startup and
shutdown in this case.
- Remove the conditional mask/unmask logic in the PCI/MSI layer as this
is now handled unconditionally.
- Replace the hardcoded interrupt routing in the Loongson EIOINTC
interrupt driver to respect the firmware settings and spread them out
to different CPU interrupt inputs so that the demultiplexing handler
only needs to read only a single 64-bit status register instead of
four, which significantly reduces the overhead in VMs as the status
register access causes a VM exit.
- Add support for the new AST2700 SCU interrupt controllers
- Use the legacy interrupt domain setup for the Loongson PCH-LPC
interrupt controller, which resembles the x86 legacy PIC setup and
has the same hardcoded legacy requirements.
- The usual set of cleanups, fixes and improvements all over the place

Rename the "kvm" entry code files and Kconfigs to use generic "virt"

the code somehow relies on and/or involves KVM.

Move KVM's morphing of pending signals into userspace exits into KVM
proper, and drop the @vcpu param from xfer_to_guest_mode_handle_work().
How KVM responds to -EINTR is a detail that really belongs in KVM itself,
and invoking kvm_handle_signal_exit() from kernel code creates an inverted
module dependency. E.g. attempting to move kvm_handle_signal_exit() into
kvm_main.c would generate an linker error when building kvm.ko as a module.
Dropping KVM details will also converting the KVM "entry" code into a more
generic virtualization framework so that it can be used when running as a
Hyper-V root partition.
Lastly, eliminating usage of "struct kvm_vcpu" outside of KVM is also nice
to have for KVM x86 developers, as keeping the details of kvm_vcpu purely
within KVM allows changing the layout of the structure without having to
boot into a new kernel, e.g. allows rebuilding and reloading kvm.ko with a
modified kvm_vcpu structure as part of debug/development.

Pull ffs const-attribute cleanups from Kees Cook:
"While working on various hardening refactoring a while back we
encountered inconsistencies in the application of __attribute_const__

This series fixes this across all archs and adds KUnit tests.
Notably, this found a theoretical underflow in PCI (also fixed here)
and uncovered an inefficiency in ARC (fixed in the ARC arch PR). I
kept the series separate from the general hardening PR since it is a
stand-alone "topic".

Some RISC-V interrupt controllers like RPMI based system MSI interrupt
controllers do not have MADT entry defined. These interrupt controllers
exist only in the namespace. ACPI spec defines _GSB method to get the
GSI base of the interrupt controller, However, there is no such standard
method to get the GSI range. To support such interrupt controllers, set
the GSI range of such interrupt controllers to non-overlapping range and
provide API for interrupt controller driver to update it with proper
value.

The include/generated/asm-offsets.h is generated in Kbuild during
compiling from arch/SRCARCH/kernel/asm-offsets.c. When we want to
generate another similar offset header file, circular dependency can
happen.
For example, we want to generate a offset file include/generated/test.h,
which is included in include/sched/sched.h. If we generate asm-offsets.h
first, it will fail, as include/sched/sched.h is included in asm-offsets.c
and include/generated/test.h doesn't exist; If we generate test.h first,
it can't success neither, as include/generated/asm-offsets.h is included
by it.
In x86_64, the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS is used to avoid such circular
dependency. We can generate asm-offsets.h first, and if the
COMPILE_OFFSETS is defined, we don't include the "generated/test.h".
And we define the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS for all the asm-offsets.c for this
purpose.

The kernel's CFI implementation uses the KCFI ABI specifically, and is
not strictly tied to a particular compiler. In preparation for GCC
supporting KCFI, rename CONFIG_CFI_CLANG to CONFIG_CFI (along with
associated options).
Use new "transitional" Kconfig option for old CONFIG_CFI_CLANG that will
enable CONFIG_CFI during olddefconfig.

RISC-V Misc Devicetrees for v6.18
Starfive:
The main new addition is support for the JH7110 Milk-V Mars CM lite SoM.
Other than that, there's several cleanups done to the common JH7110 dtsi
file, some relating to properties used by U-Boot or encountered during
U-Boot development. Additionally, there's a binding and devicetree node
for the memory controller on the JH7110. The memory controller only sees
use in U-Boot, so the binding is here rather than in Krzysztof's
branch.
SiFive:
Support for SiFive vendor-specific extensions in the binding file for
extensions. These currently only see use in the SBI implementation.
Microchip:
Addition of support for the PolarFire SoC Discovery kit and
non-engineering sample Icicle kit. The latter differs very slightly from
the final ES devices due to bug fixes affecting functionality, and needs
its own dts. To reduce duplication, the common portion of the two Icicle
kits are moved into a dtsi. There's a few minor fixes here too, mostly
low-hanging fruit detected during the addition of the Discovery kit that
were then applied to the Icicle.

Allwinner Device Tree changes for 6.18
This tag contains two DT binding header changes that are shared with
the clk tree.
In this cycle we gained support for the MCU PRCM clock and reset
controller on the A523/A527/T527 family of SoCs, the NPU which is a
Vivante GC9000 IP block, and the NPU clock that was missing. The other
PRCM clock controller gained default bus clock rate settings. These
were not configured in the upstream U-boot bootloader, leading to them
running at slower rates. The assigned rates are from the user manual.
There is also a new board, the NetCube Systems Nagami SoM and two of
its carrier boards.
The A523 family development boards now have their internal RTC clocks
configured correctly, so that the RTC does not drift wildly. The missing
functions for the AXP717 on these boards are added. Missing reset GPIOs
and delays for Ethernet PHYs are added. Last, the Cubie A5E now has its
LEDs described and usable.
An overlay for the Orange Pi Zero interface (addon) board was added.
This can be used with the Orange Pi Zero and Zero Plus 2. Default audio
routing for these two boards (to be used with the addon) were added to
complement the overlay.

In the __arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline() function, retval_off is only
meaningful when save_ret is true, so the current logic is correct.
However, in the original logic, retval_off is only initialized under
certain conditions; for example, in the fmod_ret logic, the compiler is
not aware that the flags of the fmod_ret program (prog) have set
BPF_TRAMP_F_CALL_ORIG, which results in an uninitialized symbol
compilation warning.
So initialize retval_off unconditionally to fix it.
