Currently, kernel fails to boot on some HyperV VMs when using EFI.
And it's a potential issue on all x86 platforms.
It's caused by broken kernel relocation on EFI systems, when below three
conditions are met:
1. Kernel image is not loaded to the default address (LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR)
by the loader.
2. There isn't enough room to contain the kernel, starting from the
default load address (eg. something else occupied part the region).
3. In the memmap provided by EFI firmware, there is a memory region
starts below LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR, and suitable for containing the
kernel.
EFI stub will perform a kernel relocation when condition 1 is met. But
due to condition 2, EFI stub can't relocate kernel to the preferred
address, so it fallback to ask EFI firmware to alloc lowest usable memory
region, got the low region mentioned in condition 3, and relocated
kernel there.
It's incorrect to relocate the kernel below LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR. This
is the lowest acceptable kernel relocation address.
The first thing goes wrong is in arch/x86/boot/compressed/head_64.S.
Kernel decompression will force use LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR as the output
address if kernel is located below it. Then the relocation before
decompression, which move kernel to the end of the decompression buffer,
will overwrite other memory region, as there is no enough memory there.
To fix it, just don't let EFI stub relocate the kernel to any address
lower than lowest acceptable address.

We introduce a feature that works like a combination of TCP_NAGLE and
TCP_CORK, but without some of the weaknesses of those. In particular,
we will not observe long delivery delays because of delayed acks, since
the algorithm itself decides if and when acks are to be sent from the
receiving peer.
- The nagle property as such is determined by manipulating a new
'maxnagle' field in struct tipc_sock. If certain conditions are met,
'maxnagle' will define max size of the messages which can be bundled.
If it is set to zero no messages are ever bundled, implying that the
nagle property is disabled.
- A socket with the nagle property enabled enters nagle mode when more
than 4 messages have been sent out without receiving any data message
from the peer.
- A socket leaves nagle mode whenever it receives a data message from
the peer.
In nagle mode, messages smaller than 'maxnagle' are accumulated in the
socket write queue. The last buffer in the queue is marked with a new
'ack_required' bit, which forces the receiving peer to send a CONN_ACK
message back to the sender upon reception.
The accumulated contents of the write queue is transmitted when one of
the following events or conditions occur.
- A CONN_ACK message is received from the peer.
- A data message is received from the peer.
- A SOCK_WAKEUP pseudo message is received from the link level.
- The write queue contains more than 64 1k blocks of data.
- The connection is being shut down.
- There is no CONN_ACK message to expect. I.e., there is currently
no outstanding message where the 'ack_required' bit was set. As a
consequence, the first message added after we enter nagle mode
is always sent directly with this bit set.
This new feature gives a 50-100% improvement of throughput for small
(i.e., less than MTU size) messages, while it might add up to one RTT
to latency time when the socket is in nagle mode.

Our existing behaviour is to allow contexts and their GPU requests to
persist past the point of closure until the requests are complete. This
allows clients to operate in a 'fire-and-forget' manner where they can
setup a rendering pipeline and hand it over to the display server and
immediately exit. As the rendering pipeline is kept alive until
completion, the display server (or other consumer) can use the results
in the future and present them to the user.
The compute model is a little different. They have little to no buffer
sharing between processes as their kernels tend to operate on a
continuous stream, feeding the results back to the client application.
These kernels operate for an indeterminate length of time, with many
clients wishing that the kernel was always running for as long as they
keep feeding in the data, i.e. acting like a DSP.
Not all clients want this persistent "desktop" behaviour and would prefer
that the contexts are cleaned up immediately upon closure. This ensures
that when clients are run without hangchecking (e.g. for compute kernels
of indeterminate runtime), any GPU hang or other unexpected workloads
are terminated with the process and does not continue to hog resources.
The default behaviour for new contexts is the legacy persistence mode,
as some desktop applications are dependent upon the existing behaviour.
New clients will have to opt in to immediate cleanup on context
closure. If the hangchecking modparam is disabled, so is persistent
context support -- all contexts will be terminated on closure.
We expect this behaviour change to be welcomed by compute users, who
have often been caught between a rock and a hard place. They disable
hangchecking to avoid their kernels being "unfairly" declared hung, but
have also experienced true hangs that the system was then unable to
clean up. Naturally, this leads to bug reports.

Drop various work-arounds we have for workqueues:
- We no longer need the async_list for tracking sequential IO.
- We don't have to maintain our own mm tracking/setting.
- We don't need a separate workqueue for buffered writes. This didn't
even work that well to begin with, as it was suboptimal for multiple
buffered writers on multiple files.
- We can properly cancel pending interruptible work. This fixes
deadlocks with particularly socket IO, where we cannot cancel them
when the io_uring is closed. Hence the ring will wait forever for
these requests to complete, which may never happen. This is different
from disk IO where we know requests will complete in a finite amount
of time.
- Due to being able to cancel work interruptible work that is already
running, we can implement file table support for work. We need that
for supporting system calls that add to a process file table.
- It gets us one step closer to adding async support for any system
call.

This adds support for io-wq, a smaller and specialized thread pool
implementation. This is meant to replace workqueues for io_uring. Among
the reasons for this addition are:
- We can assign memory context smarter and more persistently if we
manage the life time of threads.
- We can drop various work-arounds we have in io_uring, like the
async_list.
- We can implement hashed work insertion, to manage concurrency of
buffered writes without needing a) an extra workqueue, or b)
needlessly making the concurrency of said workqueue very low
which hurts performance of multiple buffered file writers.
- We can implement cancel through signals, for cancelling
interruptible work like read/write (or send/recv) to/from sockets.
- We need the above cancel for being able to assign and use file tables
from a process.
- We can implement a more thorough cancel operation in general.
- We need it to move towards a syslet/threadlet model for even faster
async execution. For that we need to take ownership of the used
threads.
This list is just off the top of my head. Performance should be the
same, or better, at least that's what I've seen in my testing. io-wq
supports basic NUMA functionality, setting up a pool per node.
io-wq hooks up to the scheduler schedule in/out just like workqueue
and uses that to drive the need for more/less workers.

To support the DP-MST multiple streams via single connector feature,
the HDMI driver was extended with the concept of backup PCMs. See
commit 9152085def ("ALSA: hda - add DP MST audio support").
This implementation works fine with snd_hda_intel.c as PCM topology
is fully managed within the single driver.
When the HDA codec driver is used from ASoC components, the concept
of backup PCMs no longer fits. For ASoC topologies, the physical
HDMI converters are presented as backend DAIs and these should match
with hardware capabilities. The ASoC topology may define arbitrary
PCMs (i.e. frontend DAIs) and have processing elements before eventual
routing to the HDMI BE DAIs. With backup PCMs, the link between
FE and BE DAIs would become dynamic and change when monitors are
(un)plugged. This would lead to modifying the topology every time
hotplug events happen, which is not currently possible in ASoC and
there does not seem to be any obvious benefits from this design.
To overcome above problems and enable the HDMI driver to be used
from ASoC, this patch adds a new mode (mst_no_extra_pcms flags) to
patch_hdmi.c. In this mode, the codec driver does not assume
the backup PCMs to be created.

To trace io_uring activity one can get an information from workqueue and
io trace events, but looks like some parts could be hard to identify via
this approach. Making what happens inside io_uring more transparent is
important to be able to reason about many aspects of it, hence introduce
the set of tracing events.
All such events could be roughly divided into two categories:
* those, that are helping to understand correctness (from both kernel
and an application point of view). E.g. a ring creation, file
registration, or waiting for available CQE. Proposed approach is to
get a pointer to an original structure of interest (ring context, or
request), and then find relevant events. io_uring_queue_async_work
also exposes a pointer to work_struct, to be able to track down
corresponding workqueue events.
* those, that provide performance related information. Mostly it's about
events that change the flow of requests, e.g. whether an async work
was queued, or delayed due to some dependencies. Another important
case is how io_uring optimizations (e.g. registered files) are
utilized.

We currently size the CQ ring as twice the SQ ring, to allow some
flexibility in not overflowing the CQ ring. This is done because the
SQE life time is different than that of the IO request itself, the SQE
is consumed as soon as the kernel has seen the entry.
Certain application don't need a huge SQ ring size, since they just
submit IO in batches. But they may have a lot of requests pending, and
hence need a big CQ ring to hold them all. By allowing the application
to control the CQ ring size multiplier, we can cater to those
applications more efficiently.
If an application wants to define its own CQ ring size, it must set

Allows the application to remove/replace/add files to/from a file set.
Passes in a struct:
struct io_uring_files_update {
__u32 offset;
__s32 *fds;
};
that holds an array of fds, size of array passed in through the usual
nr_args part of the io_uring_register() system call. The logic is as
follows:
1) If ->fds[i] is -1, the existing file at i + ->offset is removed from
the set.
2) If ->fds[i] is a valid fd, the existing file at i + ->offset is
replaced with ->fds[i].
For case #2, is the existing file is currently empty (fd == -1), the
new fd is simply added to the array.
