c5e22feffd topology: Represent clusters of CPUs within a die
Both ACPI and DT provide the ability to describe additional layers of
topology between that of individual cores and higher level constructs
such as the level at which the last level cache is shared.
In ACPI this can be represented in PPTT as a Processor Hierarchy
Node Structure [1] that is the parent of the CPU cores and in turn
has a parent Processor Hierarchy Nodes Structure representing
a higher level of topology.

For example Kunpeng 920 has 6 or 8 clusters in each NUMA node, and each
cluster has 4 cpus. All clusters share L3 cache data, but each cluster
has local L3 tag. On the other hand, each clusters will share some
internal system bus.

That means spreading tasks among clusters will bring more bandwidth
while packing tasks within one cluster will lead to smaller cache
synchronization latency. So both kernel and userspace will have
a chance to leverage this topology to deploy tasks accordingly to
achieve either smaller cache latency within one cluster or an even
distribution of load among clusters for higher throughput.

This patch exposes cluster topology to both kernel and userspace.
Libraried like hwloc will know cluster by cluster_cpus and related
sysfs attributes. PoC of HWLOC support at [2].

Note this patch only handle the ACPI case.

Special consideration is needed for SMT processors, where it is
necessary to move 2 levels up the hierarchy from the leaf nodes
(thus skipping the processor core level).

Note that arm64 / ACPI does not provide any means of identifying
a die level in the topology but that may be unrelate to the cluster
level.

5879f1c94d Documentation: dyndbg: Improve cli param examples
Jim pointed out that using $module.dyndbg= is always a more flexible
choice for using dynamic debug on the command line. The $module.dyndbg
style is checked at boot and handles if $module is a builtin. If it is
actually a loadable module, it is handled again later when the module is
loaded.

If you just use dyndbg="module $module +p" dynamic debug is only enabled
when $module is a builtin.

It was recommended to illustrate wildcard usage as well.

53e8ce137f Documentation: admin-guide: Document side effects when pKVM is enabled
Recent changes to KVM for arm64 has made it impossible for the host to
hibernate or use kexec when protected mode is enabled via the kernel
command line.

There are people who rely on kexec (for example, developers who use kexec
as a quick way to test a new kernel), let's document this change in
behaviour, so it doesn't catch them by surprise and we have a place to
point people to if it does.

b6a68b97af KVM: arm64: Allow KVM to be disabled from the command line
Although KVM can be compiled out of the kernel, it cannot be disabled
at runtime. Allow this possibility by introducing a new mode that
will prevent KVM from initialising.

This is useful in the (limited) circumstances where you don't want
KVM to be available (what is wrong with you?), or when you want
to install another hypervisor instead (good luck with that).

2f46993d83 x86: change default to spec_store_bypass_disable=prctl spectre_v2_user=prctl
Switch the kernel default of SSBD and STIBP to the ones with
CONFIG_SECCOMP=n (i.e. spec_store_bypass_disable=prctl
spectre_v2_user=prctl) even if CONFIG_SECCOMP=y.

Several motivations listed below:

- If SMT is enabled the seccomp jail can still attack the rest of the
  system even with spectre_v2_user=seccomp by using MDS-HT (except on
  XEON PHI where MDS can be tamed with SMT left enabled, but that's a
  special case). Setting STIBP become a very expensive window dressing
  after MDS-HT was discovered.

- The seccomp jail cannot attack the kernel with spectre-v2-HT
  regardless (even if STIBP is not set), but with MDS-HT the seccomp
  jail can attack the kernel too.

- With spec_store_bypass_disable=prctl the seccomp jail can attack the
  other userland (guest or host mode) using spectre-v2-HT, but the
  userland attack is already mitigated by both ASLR and pid namespaces
  for host userland and through virt isolation with libkrun or
  kata. (if something if somebody is worried about spectre-v2-HT it's
  best to mount proc with hidepid=2,gid=proc on workstations where not
  all apps may run under container runtimes, rather than slowing down
  all seccomp jails, but the best is to add pid namespaces to the
  seccomp jail). As opposed MDS-HT is not mitigated and the seccomp
  jail can still attack all other host and guest userland if SMT is
  enabled even with spec_store_bypass_disable=seccomp.

- If full security is required then MDS-HT must also be mitigated with
  nosmt and then spectre_v2_user=prctl and spectre_v2_user=seccomp
  would become identical.

- Setting spectre_v2_user=seccomp is overall lower priority than to
  setting javascript.options.wasm false in about:config to protect
  against remote wasm MDS-HT, instead of worrying about Spectre-v2-HT
  and STIBP which again is already statistically well mitigated by
  other means in userland and it's fully mitigated in kernel with
  retpolines (unlike the wasm assist call with MDS-HT).

- SSBD is needed to prevent reading the JIT memory and the primary
  user being the OpenJDK. However the primary user of SSBD wouldn't be
  covered by spec_store_bypass_disable=seccomp because it doesn't use
  seccomp and the primary user also explicitly declined to set
  PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL+PR_SPEC_STORE_BYPASS despite it easily
  could. In fact it would need to set it only when the sandboxing
  mechanism is enabled for javaws applets, but it still declined it by
  declaring security within the same user address space as an
  untenable objective for their JIT, even in the sandboxing case where
  performance would be a lesser concern (for the record: I kind of
  disagree in not setting PR_SPEC_STORE_BYPASS in the sandbox case and
  I prefer to run javaws through a wrapper that sets
  PR_SPEC_STORE_BYPASS if I need). In turn it can be inferred that
  even if the primary user of SSBD would use seccomp, they would
  invoke it with SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_SPEC_ALLOW by now.

- runc/crun already set SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_SPEC_ALLOW by default, k8s
  and podman have a default json seccomp allowlist that cannot be
  slowed down, so for the #1 seccomp user this change is already a
  noop.

- systemd/sshd or other apps that use seccomp, if they really need
  STIBP or SSBD, they need to explicitly set the
  PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL by now. The stibp/ssbd seccomp blind
  catch-all approach was done probably initially with a wishful
  thinking objective to pretend to have a peace of mind that it could
  magically fix it all. That was wishful thinking before MDS-HT was
  discovered, but after MDS-HT has been discovered it become just
  window dressing.

- For qemu "-sandbox" seccomp jail it wouldn't make sense to set STIBP
  or SSBD. SSBD doesn't help with KVM because there's no JIT (if it's
  needed with TCG it should be an opt-in with
  PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL+PR_SPEC_STORE_BYPASS and it shouldn't
  slowdown KVM for nothing). For qemu+KVM STIBP would be even more
  window dressing than it is for all other apps, because in the
  qemu+KVM case there's not only the MDS attack to worry about with
  SMT enabled. Even after disabling SMT, there's still a theoretical
  spectre-v2 attack possible within the same thread context from guest
  mode to host ring3 that the host kernel retpoline mitigation has no
  theoretical chance to mitigate. On some kernels a
  ibrs-always/ibrs-retpoline opt-in model is provided that will
  enabled IBRS in the qemu host ring3 userland which fixes this
  theoretical concern. Only after enabling IBRS in the host userland
  it would then make sense to proceed and worry about STIBP and an
  attack on the other host userland, but then again SMT would need to
  be disabled for full security anyway, so that would render STIBP
  again a noop.

- last but not the least: the lack of "spec_store_bypass_disable=prctl
  spectre_v2_user=prctl" means the moment a guest boots and
  sshd/systemd runs, the guest kernel will write to SPEC_CTRL MSR
  which will make the guest vmexit forever slower, forcing KVM to
  issue a very slow rdmsr instruction at every vmexit. So the end
  result is that SPEC_CTRL MSR is only available in GCE. Most other
  public cloud providers don't expose SPEC_CTRL, which means that not
  only STIBP/SSBD isn't available, but IBPB isn't available either
  (which would cause no overhead to the guest or the hypervisor
  because it's write only and requires no reading during vmexit). So
  the current default already net loss in security (missing IBPB)
  which means most public cloud providers cannot achieve a fully
  secure guest with nosmt (and nosmt is enough to fully mitigate
  MDS-HT). It also means GCE and is unfairly penalized in performance
  because it provides the option to enable full security in the guest
  as an opt-in (i.e. nosmt and IBPB). So this change will allow all
  cloud providers to expose SPEC_CTRL without incurring into any
  hypervisor slowdown and at the same time it will remove the unfair
  penalization of GCE performance for doing the right thing and it'll
  allow to get full security with nosmt with IBPB being available (and
  STIBP becoming meaningless).

Example to put things in prospective: the STIBP enabled in seccomp has
never been about protecting apps using seccomp like sshd from an
attack from a malicious userland, but to the contrary it has always
been about protecting the system from an attack from sshd, after a
successful remote network exploit against sshd. In fact initially it
wasn't obvious STIBP would work both ways (STIBP was about preventing
the task that runs with STIBP to be attacked with spectre-v2-HT, but
accidentally in the STIBP case it also prevents the attack in the
other direction). In the hypothetical case that sshd has been remotely
exploited the last concern should be STIBP being set, because it'll be
still possible to obtain info even from the kernel by using MDS if
nosmt wasn't set (and if it was set, STIBP is a noop in the first
place). As opposed kernel cannot leak anything with spectre-v2 HT
because of retpolines and the userland is mitigated by ASLR already
and ideally PID namespaces too. If something it'd be worth checking if
sshd run the seccomp thread under pid namespaces too if available in
the running kernel. SSBD also would be a noop for sshd, since sshd
uses no JIT. If sshd prefers to keep doing the STIBP window dressing
exercise, it still can even after this change of defaults by opting-in
with PR_SPEC_INDIRECT_BRANCH.

Ultimately setting SSBD and STIBP by default for all seccomp jails is
a bad sweet spot and bad default with more cons than pros that end up
reducing security in the public cloud (by giving an huge incentive to
not expose SPEC_CTRL which would be needed to get full security with
IBPB after setting nosmt in the guest) and by excessively hurting
performance to more secure apps using seccomp that end up having to
opt out with SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_SPEC_ALLOW.

The following is the verified result of the new default with SMT
enabled:

(gdb) print spectre_v2_user_stibp
$1 = SPECTRE_V2_USER_PRCTL
(gdb) print spectre_v2_user_ibpb
$2 = SPECTRE_V2_USER_PRCTL
(gdb) print ssb_mode
$3 = SPEC_STORE_BYPASS_PRCTL

9b4a9b31b9 media: vimc: Enable set resolution at the scaler src pad
Modify the scaler subdevice to accept setting the resolution of the source
pad (previously the source resolution would always be 3 times the sink for
both dimensions). Now any resolution can be set at src (even smaller ones)
and the sink video will be scaled to match it.

Test example: With the vimc module up (using the default vimc topology)
media-ctl -d platform:vimc -V '"Sensor A":0[fmt:SBGGR8_1X8/640x480]'
media-ctl -d platform:vimc -V '"Debayer A":0[fmt:SBGGR8_1X8/640x480]'
media-ctl -d platform:vimc -V '"Scaler":0[fmt:RGB888_1X24/640x480]'
media-ctl -d platform:vimc -V '"Scaler":0[crop:(100,50)/400x150]'
media-ctl -d platform:vimc -V '"Scaler":1[fmt:RGB888_1X24/300x700]'
v4l2-ctl -z platform:vimc -d "RGB/YUV Capture" -v width=300,height=700
v4l2-ctl -z platform:vimc -d "Raw Capture 0" -v pixelformat=BA81
v4l2-ctl --stream-mmap --stream-count=10 -z platform:vimc -d "RGB/YUV Capture" \
	--stream-to=test.raw

The result will be a cropped stream that can be checked with the command
ffplay -loglevel warning -v info -f rawvideo -pixel_format rgb24 \
	-video_size "300x700" test.raw

316346243b Merge branch 'gcc-min-version-5.1' (make gcc-5.1 the minimum version)
Merge patch series from Nick Desaulniers to update the minimum gcc
version to 5.1.

This is some of the left-overs from the merge window that I didn't want
to deal with yesterday, so it comes in after -rc1 but was sent before.

Gcc-4.9 support has been an annoyance for some time, and with -Werror I
had the choice of applying a fairly big patch from Kees Cook to remove a
fair number of initializer warnings (still leaving some), or this patch
series from Nick that just removes the source of the problem.

The initializer cleanups might still be worth it regardless, but
honestly, I preferred just tackling the problem with gcc-4.9 head-on.
We've been more aggressiuve about no longer having to care about
compilers that were released a long time ago, and I think it's been a
good thing.

I added a couple of patches on top to sort out a few left-overs now that
we no longer support gcc-4.x.

As noted by Arnd, as a result of this minimum compiler version upgrade
we can probably change our use of '--std=gnu89' to '--std=gnu11', and
finally start using local loop declarations etc.  But this series does
_not_ yet do that.

ac3332c447 memory-hotplug.rst: complete admin-guide overhaul
The memory hot(un)plug documentation is outdated and incomplete.  Most of
the content dates back to 2007, so it's time for a major overhaul.

Let's rewrite, reorganize and update most parts of the documentation.  In
addition to memory hot(un)plug, also add some details regarding
ZONE_MOVABLE, with memory hotunplug being one of its main consumers.

Drop the file history, that information can more reliably be had from the
git log.

The style of the document is also properly fixed that e.g., "restview"
renders it cleanly now.

In the future, we might add some more details about virt users like
virtio-mem, the XEN balloon, the Hyper-V balloon and ppc64 dlpar.

a38a59fdfa mm/mempolicy: advertise new MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY
Adds a new mode to the existing mempolicy modes, MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY.

MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY will be adequately documented in the internal
admin-guide with this patch.  Eventually, the man pages for mbind(2),
get_mempolicy(2), set_mempolicy(2) and numactl(8) will also have text
about this mode.  Those shall contain the canonical reference.

NUMA systems continue to become more prevalent.  New technologies like
PMEM make finer grain control over memory access patterns increasingly
desirable.  MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY allows userspace to specify a set of nodes
that will be tried first when performing allocations.  If those
allocations fail, all remaining nodes will be tried.  It's a straight
forward API which solves many of the presumptive needs of system
administrators wanting to optimize workloads on such machines.  The mode
will work either per VMA, or per thread.

65d759c8f9 mm: compaction: support triggering of proactive compaction by user
The proactive compaction[1] gets triggered for every 500msec and run
compaction on the node for COMPACTION_HPAGE_ORDER (usually order-9) pages
based on the value set to sysctl.compaction_proactiveness.  Triggering the
compaction for every 500msec in search of COMPACTION_HPAGE_ORDER pages is
not needed for all applications, especially on the embedded system
usecases which may have few MB's of RAM.  Enabling the proactive
compaction in its state will endup in running almost always on such
systems.

Other side, proactive compaction can still be very much useful for getting
a set of higher order pages in some controllable manner(controlled by
using the sysctl.compaction_proactiveness).  So, on systems where enabling
the proactive compaction always may proove not required, can trigger the
same from user space on write to its sysctl interface.  As an example, say
app launcher decide to launch the memory heavy application which can be
launched fast if it gets more higher order pages thus launcher can prepare
the system in advance by triggering the proactive compaction from
userspace.

This triggering of proactive compaction is done on a write to
sysctl.compaction_proactiveness by user.

efa916af13 Merge tag 'for-5.15/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm
Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:

 - Add DM infrastructure for IMA-based remote attestion. These changes
   are the basis for deploying DM-based storage in a "cloud" that must
   validate configurations end-users run to maintain trust. These DM
   changes allow supported DM targets' configurations to be measured via
   IMA. But the policy and enforcement (of which configurations are
   valid) is managed by something outside the kernel (e.g. Keylime).

 - Fix DM crypt scalability regression on systems with many cpus due to
   percpu_counter spinlock contention in crypt_page_alloc().

 - Use in_hardirq() instead of deprecated in_irq() in DM crypt.

 - Add event counters to DM writecache to allow users to further assess
   how the writecache is performing.

 - Various code cleanup in DM writecache's main IO mapping function.
