__tty_alloc_driver()'s kernel-doc needed some care: describe the return
value using the standard "Returns:", and use the new enum tty_driver_flag
for @flags.
Then, the tty_alloc_driver() macro was undocumented, but referenced many
times in the docs. Copy the docs from the above (except the @owner
parameter, obviously).

"N_TTY_BUF_SIZE" is private to n_tty and shall not be exposed to the

tty_struct".
This is a remnant of moving "read_flags" to "struct n_tty_data" in
commit 3fe780b379 ("TTY: move ldisc data from tty_struct: bitmaps").

Pull driver core api addition from Greg KH:
"Here is a driver core new api for 6.14-rc3 that is being added to
allow platform devices from stop being abused.
It adds a new 'faux_device' structure and bus and api to allow almost
a straight or simpler conversion from platform devices that were not
really a platform device. It also comes with a binding for rust, with
an example driver in rust showing how it's used.
I'm adding this now so that the patches that convert the different
drivers and subsystems can all start flowing into linux-next now
through their different development trees, in time for 6.15-rc1.
We have a number that are already reviewed and tested, but adding
those conversions now doesn't seem right. For now, no one is using
this, and it passes all build tests from 0-day and linux-next, so all
should be good"

- Reject Hyper-V SEND_IPI hypercalls if the local APIC isn't being emulated
by KVM to fix a NULL pointer dereference.
- Enter guest mode (L2) from KVM's perspective before initializing the vCPU's
nested NPT MMU so that the MMU is properly tagged for L2, not L1.
- Load the guest's DR6 outside of the innermost .vcpu_run() loop, as the
guest's value may be stale if a VM-Exit is handled in the fastpath.
KVM is dependent on the PSP SEV driver and PSP SEV driver needs to be
loaded before KVM module. In case of module loading any dependent
modules are automatically loaded but in case of built-in modules there
is no inherent mechanism available to specify dependencies between
modules and ensure that any dependent modules are loaded implicitly.
Add a new external API interface for PSP module initialization which
allows PSP SEV driver to be loaded explicitly if KVM is built-in.

The conditions for whether or not a request is allowed adding to a
completion batch are a bit hard to read, and they also have a few
issues. One is that ioerror may indeed be a random value on passthrough,
and it's being checked unconditionally of whether or not the given
request is a passthrough request or not.
Rewrite the conditions to be separate for easier reading, and only check
ioerror for non-passthrough requests. This fixes an issue with bio
unmapping on passthrough, where it fails getting added to a batch. This
both leads to suboptimal performance, and may trigger a potential
schedule-under-atomic condition for polled passthrough IO.

This reverts commit dbae2b0628 ("net: skb: introduce and use a single
page frag cache"). The intended goal of such change was to counter a
performance regression introduced by commit 3226b158e6 ("net: avoid
32 x truesize under-estimation for tiny skbs").
Unfortunately, the blamed commit introduces another regression for the
virtio_net driver. Such a driver calls napi_alloc_skb() with a tiny
size, so that the whole head frag could fit a 512-byte block.
The single page frag cache uses a 1K fragment for such allocation, and
the additional overhead, under small UDP packets flood, makes the page
allocator a bottleneck.
Thanks to commit bf9f1baa27 ("net: add dedicated kmem_cache for
typical/small skb->head"), this revert does not re-introduce the
original regression. Actually, in the relevant test on top of this
revert, I measure a small but noticeable positive delta, just above
noise level.
The revert itself required some additional mangling due to the
introduction of the SKB_HEAD_ALIGN() helper and local lock infra in the
affected code.

Linus observed that the symbol_request(utf8_data_table) call fails when
CONFIG_UNICODE=y and CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS=y.
symbol_get() relies on the symbol data being present in the ksymtab for
symbol lookups. However, EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(utf8_data_table) is dropped
due to CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS, as no module references it in this case.
Probably, this has been broken since commit dbacb0ef67 ("kconfig option
for TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS").
This commit addresses the issue by leveraging modpost. Symbol names
passed to symbol_get() are recorded in the special .no_trim_symbol
section, which is then parsed by modpost to forcibly keep such symbols.
The .no_trim_symbol section is discarded by the linker scripts, so there
is no impact on the size of the final vmlinux or modules.
This commit cannot resolve the issue for direct calls to __symbol_get()
because the symbol name is not known at compile-time.
Although symbol_get() may eventually be deprecated, this workaround
should be good enough meanwhile.

UEFI 2.11 introduced EFI_MEMORY_HOT_PLUGGABLE to annotate system memory
regions that are 'cold plugged' at boot, i.e., hot pluggable memory that
is available from early boot, and described as system RAM by the
firmware.
Existing loaders and EFI applications running in the boot context will
happily use this memory for allocating data structures that cannot be
freed or moved at runtime, and this prevents the memory from being
unplugged. Going forward, the new EFI_MEMORY_HOT_PLUGGABLE attribute
should be tested, and memory annotated as such should be avoided for
such allocations.
In the EFI stub, there are a couple of occurrences where, instead of the
high-level AllocatePages() UEFI boot service, a low-level code sequence
is used that traverses the EFI memory map and carves out the requested
number of pages from a free region. This is needed, e.g., for allocating
as low as possible, or for allocating pages at random.
While AllocatePages() should presumably avoid special purpose memory and
cold plugged regions, this manual approach needs to incorporate this
logic itself, in order to prevent the kernel itself from ending up in a
hot unpluggable region, preventing it from being unplugged.
So add the EFI_MEMORY_HOTPLUGGABLE macro definition, and check for it
where appropriate.

After the blamed commits below, some UDP tunnel use dstats for
accounting. On the xmit path, all the UDP-base tunnels ends up
using iptunnel_xmit_stats() for stats accounting, and the latter
assumes the relevant (tunnel) network device uses tstats.
The end result is some 'funny' stat report for the mentioned UDP
tunnel, e.g. when no packet is actually dropped and a bunch of
packets are transmitted:
gnv2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1450 qdisc noqueue \
state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether ee:7d:09:87:90:ea brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
RX: bytes packets errors dropped missed mcast
14916 23 0 15 0 0
TX: bytes packets errors dropped carrier collsns
0 1566 0 0 0 0
Address the issue ensuring the same binary layout for the overlapping
fields of dstats and tstats. While this solution is a bit hackish, is
smaller and with no performance pitfall compared to other alternatives
i.e. supporting both dstat and tstat in iptunnel_xmit_stats() or
reverting the blamed commit.
With time we should possibly move all the IP-based tunnel (and virtual
devices) to dstats.

Pull timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
- Properly cast the input to secs_to_jiffies() to unsigned long as
otherwise the result uses the data type of the input variable, which
causes result range checks to fail if the input data type is signed
and smaller than unsigned long.
- Handle late armed hrtimers gracefully on CPU hotplug
There are legitimate cases where a hrtimer is (re)armed on an
outgoing CPU after the timers have been migrated away. This triggers
warnings and caused people to implement horrible workarounds in RCU.
But those workarounds are incomplete and do not cover e.g. the
scheduler hrtimers.
Stop this by force moving timer which are enqueued on the current CPU
after timer migration to be queued on a remote online CPU.
This allows to undo the workarounds in a seperate step.
- Demote a warning level printk() to info level in the clocksource
watchdog code as there is no point to emit a warning level message
for a purely informational message.
- Mark a helper function __always_inline and move it into the existing
#ifdef block to avoid 'unused function' warnings from CLANG

Tejun reported the following race between fork() and cgroup.kill at [1].
Tejun:
I was looking at cgroup.kill implementation and wondering whether there
could be a race window. So, __cgroup_kill() does the following:
k1. Set CGRP_KILL.
k2. Iterate tasks and deliver SIGKILL.
k3. Clear CGRP_KILL.
The copy_process() does the following:
c1. Copy a bunch of stuff.
c2. Grab siglock.
c3. Check fatal_signal_pending().
c4. Commit to forking.
c5. Release siglock.
c6. Call cgroup_post_fork() which puts the task on the css_set and tests
CGRP_KILL.
The intention seems to be that either a forking task gets SIGKILL and
terminates on c3 or it sees CGRP_KILL on c6 and kills the child. However, I
don't see what guarantees that k3 can't happen before c6. ie. After a
forking task passes c5, k2 can take place and then before the forking task
reaches c6, k3 can happen. Then, nobody would send SIGKILL to the child.
What am I missing?
This is indeed a race. One way to fix this race is by taking
cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem in write mode in __cgroup_kill() as the fork()
side takes cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem in read mode from cgroup_can_fork()
to cgroup_post_fork(). However that would be heavy handed as this adds
one more potential stall scenario for cgroup.kill which is usually
called under extreme situation like memory pressure.
To fix this race, let's maintain a sequence number per cgroup which gets
incremented on __cgroup_kill() call. On the fork() side, the
cgroup_can_fork() will cache the sequence number locally and recheck it
against the cgroup's sequence number at cgroup_post_fork() site. If the
sequence numbers mismatch, it means __cgroup_kill() can been called and
we should send SIGKILL to the newly created task.

Scenario:
User processe are requesting a large amount of memory and keep page active.
Then a module continuously requests memory from ZONE_DMA32 area.
Memory reclaim will be triggered due to ZONE_DMA32 watermark alarm reached.
However pages in the LRU(active_anon) list are mostly from
the ZONE_NORMAL area.
Reproduce:
Terminal 1: Construct to continuously increase pages active(anon).
mkdir /tmp/memory
mount -t tmpfs -o size=1024000M tmpfs /tmp/memory
dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/memory/block bs=4M
tail /tmp/memory/block
Terminal 2:
vmstat -a 1
active will increase.

About the Fixes:
Why did it take eight years to be discovered?
The problem requires the following conditions to occur:
1. The device memory should be large enough.
2. Pages in the LRU(active_anon) list are mostly from the ZONE_NORMAL area.
3. The memory in ZONE_DMA32 needs to reach the watermark.
If the memory is not large enough, or if the usage design of ZONE_DMA32
area memory is reasonable, this problem is difficult to detect.
notes:
The problem is most likely to occur in ZONE_DMA32 and ZONE_NORMAL,
but other suitable scenarios may also trigger the problem.
