Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
"As usual, many cleanups. The below blurbiage describes 42 patchsets.
21 of those are partially or fully cleanup work. "cleans up",
"cleanup", "maintainability", "rationalizes", etc.
I never knew the MM code was so dirty.
"mm: ksm: prevent KSM from breaking merging of new VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
addresses an issue with KSM's PR_SET_MEMORY_MERGE mode: newly
mapped VMAs were not eligible for merging with existing adjacent
VMAs.
"mm/damon: introduce DAMON_STAT for simple and practical access monitoring" (SeongJae Park)
adds a new kernel module which simplifies the setup and usage of
DAMON in production environments.
"stop passing a writeback_control to swap/shmem writeout" (Christoph Hellwig)
is a cleanup to the writeback code which removes a couple of
pointers from struct writeback_control.
"drivers/base/node.c: optimization and cleanups" (Donet Tom)
contains largely uncorrelated cleanups to the NUMA node setup and
management code.
"mm: userfaultfd: assorted fixes and cleanups" (Tal Zussman)
does some maintenance work on the userfaultfd code.
"Readahead tweaks for larger folios" (Ryan Roberts)
implements some tuneups for pagecache readahead when it is reading
into order>0 folios.
"selftests/mm: Tweaks to the cow test" (Mark Brown)
provides some cleanups and consistency improvements to the
selftests code.
"Optimize mremap() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
does that. A 37% reduction in execution time was measured in a
memset+mremap+munmap microbenchmark.
"Remove zero_user()" (Matthew Wilcox)
expunges zero_user() in favor of the more modern memzero_page().
"mm/huge_memory: vmf_insert_folio_*() and vmf_insert_pfn_pud() fixes" (David Hildenbrand)
addresses some warts which David noticed in the huge page code.
These were not known to be causing any issues at this time.
"mm/damon: use alloc_migrate_target() for DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD" (SeongJae Park)
provides some cleanup and consolidation work in DAMON.
"use vm_flags_t consistently" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
uses vm_flags_t in places where we were inappropriately using other
types.
"mm/memfd: Reserve hugetlb folios before allocation" (Vivek Kasireddy)
increases the reliability of large page allocation in the memfd
code.
"mm: Remove pXX_devmap page table bit and pfn_t type" (Alistair Popple)
removes several now-unneeded PFN_* flags.
"mm/damon: decouple sysfs from core" (SeongJae Park)
implememnts some cleanup and maintainability work in the DAMON
sysfs layer.
"madvise cleanup" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
does quite a lot of cleanup/maintenance work in the madvise() code.
"madvise anon_name cleanups" (Vlastimil Babka)
provides additional cleanups on top or Lorenzo's effort.
"Implement numa node notifier" (Oscar Salvador)
creates a standalone notifier for NUMA node memory state changes.
Previously these were lumped under the more general memory
on/offline notifier.
"Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit" (Zi Yan)
cleans up the pageblock isolation code and fixes a potential issue
which doesn't seem to cause any problems in practice.
"selftests/damon: add python and drgn based DAMON sysfs functionality tests" (SeongJae Park)
adds additional drgn- and python-based DAMON selftests which are
more comprehensive than the existing selftest suite.
"Misc rework on hugetlb faulting path" (Oscar Salvador)
fixes a rather obscure deadlock in the hugetlb fault code and
follows that fix with a series of cleanups.
"cma: factor out allocation logic from __cma_declare_contiguous_nid" (Mike Rapoport)
rationalizes and cleans up the highmem-specific code in the CMA
allocator.
"mm/migration: rework movable_ops page migration (part 1)" (David Hildenbrand)
provides cleanups and future-preparedness to the migration code.
"mm/damon: add trace events for auto-tuned monitoring intervals and DAMOS quota" (SeongJae Park)
adds some tracepoints to some DAMON auto-tuning code.
"mm/damon: fix misc bugs in DAMON modules" (SeongJae Park)
does that.
"mm/damon: misc cleanups" (SeongJae Park)
also does what it claims.
"mm: folio_pte_batch() improvements" (David Hildenbrand)
cleans up the large folio PTE batching code.
"mm/damon/vaddr: Allow interleaving in migrate_{hot,cold} actions" (SeongJae Park)
facilitates dynamic alteration of DAMON's inter-node allocation
policy.
"Remove unmap_and_put_page()" (Vishal Moola)
provides a couple of page->folio conversions.
"mm: per-node proactive reclaim" (Davidlohr Bueso)
implements a per-node control of proactive reclaim - beyond the
current memcg-based implementation.
"mm/damon: remove damon_callback" (SeongJae Park)
replaces the damon_callback interface with a more general and
powerful damon_call()+damos_walk() interface.
"mm/mremap: permit mremap() move of multiple VMAs" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
implements a number of mremap cleanups (of course) in preparation
for adding new mremap() functionality: newly permit the remapping
of multiple VMAs when the user is specifying MREMAP_FIXED. It still
excludes some specialized situations where this cannot be performed
reliably.
"drop hugetlb_free_pgd_range()" (Anthony Yznaga)
switches some sparc hugetlb code over to the generic version and
removes the thus-unneeded hugetlb_free_pgd_range().
"mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated stats update" (SeongJae Park)
augments the present userspace-requested update of DAMON sysfs
monitoring files. Automatic update is now provided, along with a
tunable to control the update interval.
"Some randome fixes and cleanups to swapfile" (Kemeng Shi)
does what is claims.
"mm: introduce snapshot_page" (Luiz Capitulino and David Hildenbrand)
provides (and uses) a means by which debug-style functions can grab
a copy of a pageframe and inspect it locklessly without tripping
over the races inherent in operating on the live pageframe
directly.
"use per-vma locks for /proc/pid/maps reads" (Suren Baghdasaryan)
addresses the large contention issues which can be triggered by
reads from that procfs file. Latencies are reduced by more than
half in some situations. The series also introduces several new
selftests for the /proc/pid/maps interface.
"__folio_split() clean up" (Zi Yan)
cleans up __folio_split()!
"Optimize mprotect() for large folios" (Dev Jain)
provides some quite large (>3x) speedups to mprotect() when dealing
with large folios.
"selftests/mm: reuse FORCE_READ to replace "asm volatile("" : "+r" (XXX));" and some cleanup" (wang lian)
does some cleanup work in the selftests code.
"tools/testing: expand mremap testing" (Lorenzo Stoakes)
extends the mremap() selftest in several ways, including adding
more checking of Lorenzo's recently added "permit mremap() move of
multiple VMAs" feature.
"selftests/damon/sysfs.py: test all parameters" (SeongJae Park)
extends the DAMON sysfs interface selftest so that it tests all
possible user-requested parameters. Rather than the present minimal
subset"

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Host driver for GICv5, the next generation interrupt controller for
arm64, including support for interrupt routing, MSIs, interrupt
translation and wired interrupts
- Use FEAT_GCIE_LEGACY on GICv5 systems to virtualize GICv3 VMs on
GICv5 hardware, leveraging the legacy VGIC interface
- Userspace control of the 'nASSGIcap' GICv3 feature, allowing
userspace to disable support for SGIs w/o an active state on
hardware that previously advertised it unconditionally
- Map supporting endpoints with cacheable memory attributes on
systems with FEAT_S2FWB and DIC where KVM no longer needs to
perform cache maintenance on the address range
- Nested support for FEAT_RAS and FEAT_DoubleFault2, allowing the
guest hypervisor to inject external aborts into an L2 VM and take
traps of masked external aborts to the hypervisor
- Convert more system register sanitization to the config-driven
implementation
- Fixes to the visibility of EL2 registers, namely making VGICv3
system registers accessible through the VGIC device instead of the
ONE_REG vCPU ioctls
- Various cleanups and minor fixes
LoongArch:
- Add stat information for in-kernel irqchip
- Add tracepoints for CPUCFG and CSR emulation exits
- Enhance in-kernel irqchip emulation
- Various cleanups
RISC-V:
- Enable ring-based dirty memory tracking
- Improve perf kvm stat to report interrupt events
- Delegate illegal instruction trap to VS-mode
- MMU improvements related to upcoming nested virtualization
s390x
- Fixes
x86:
- Add CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC for x86 to allow disabling support for I/O
APIC, PIC, and PIT emulation at compile time
- Share device posted IRQ code between SVM and VMX and harden it
against bugs and runtime errors
- Use vcpu_idx, not vcpu_id, for GA log tag/metadata, to make lookups
O(1) instead of O(n)
- For MMIO stale data mitigation, track whether or not a vCPU has
access to (host) MMIO based on whether the page tables have MMIO
pfns mapped; using VFIO is prone to false negatives
- Rework the MSR interception code so that the SVM and VMX APIs are
more or less identical
- Recalculate all MSR intercepts from scratch on MSR filter changes,
instead of maintaining shadow bitmaps
- Advertise support for LKGS (Load Kernel GS base), a new instruction
that's loosely related to FRED, but is supported and enumerated
independently
- Fix a user-triggerable WARN that syzkaller found by setting the
vCPU in INIT_RECEIVED state (aka wait-for-SIPI), and then putting
the vCPU into VMX Root Mode (post-VMXON). Trying to detect every
possible path leading to architecturally forbidden states is hard
and even risks breaking userspace (if it goes from valid to valid
state but passes through invalid states), so just wait until
KVM_RUN to detect that the vCPU state isn't allowed
- Add KVM_X86_DISABLE_EXITS_APERFMPERF to allow disabling
interception of APERF/MPERF reads, so that a "properly" configured
VM can access APERF/MPERF. This has many caveats (APERF/MPERF
cannot be zeroed on vCPU creation or saved/restored on suspend and
resume, or preserved over thread migration let alone VM migration)
but can be useful whenever you're interested in letting Linux
guests see the effective physical CPU frequency in /proc/cpuinfo
- Reject KVM_SET_TSC_KHZ for vm file descriptors if vCPUs have been
created, as there's no known use case for changing the default
frequency for other VM types and it goes counter to the very reason
why the ioctl was added to the vm file descriptor. And also, there
would be no way to make it work for confidential VMs with a
"secure" TSC, so kill two birds with one stone
- Dynamically allocation the shadow MMU's hashed page list, and defer
allocating the hashed list until it's actually needed (the TDP MMU
doesn't use the list)
- Extract many of KVM's helpers for accessing architectural local
APIC state to common x86 so that they can be shared by guest-side
code for Secure AVIC
- Various cleanups and fixes
x86 (Intel):
- Preserve the host's DEBUGCTL.FREEZE_IN_SMM when running the guest.
Failure to honor FREEZE_IN_SMM can leak host state into guests
- Explicitly check vmcs12.GUEST_DEBUGCTL on nested VM-Enter to
prevent L1 from running L2 with features that KVM doesn't support,
e.g. BTF
x86 (AMD):
- WARN and reject loading kvm-amd.ko instead of panicking the kernel
if the nested SVM MSRPM offsets tracker can't handle an MSR (which
is pretty much a static condition and therefore should never
happen, but still)
- Fix a variety of flaws and bugs in the AVIC device posted IRQ code
- Inhibit AVIC if a vCPU's ID is too big (relative to what hardware
supports) instead of rejecting vCPU creation
- Extend enable_ipiv module param support to SVM, by simply leaving
IsRunning clear in the vCPU's physical ID table entry
- Disable IPI virtualization, via enable_ipiv, if the CPU is affected
by erratum #1235, to allow (safely) enabling AVIC on such CPUs
- Request GA Log interrupts if and only if the target vCPU is
blocking, i.e. only if KVM needs a notification in order to wake
the vCPU
- Intercept SPEC_CTRL on AMD if the MSR shouldn't exist according to
the vCPU's CPUID model
- Accept any SNP policy that is accepted by the firmware with respect
to SMT and single-socket restrictions. An incompatible policy
doesn't put the kernel at risk in any way, so there's no reason for
KVM to care
- Drop a superfluous WBINVD (on all CPUs!) when destroying a VM and
use WBNOINVD instead of WBINVD when possible for SEV cache
maintenance
- When reclaiming memory from an SEV guest, only do cache flushes on
CPUs that have ever run a vCPU for the guest, i.e. don't flush the
caches for CPUs that can't possibly have cache lines with dirty,
encrypted data
Generic:
- Rework irqbypass to track/match producers and consumers via an
xarray instead of a linked list. Using a linked list leads to
O(n^2) insertion times, which is hugely problematic for use cases
that create large numbers of VMs. Such use cases typically don't
actually use irqbypass, but eliminating the pointless registration
is a future problem to solve as it likely requires new uAPI
- Track irqbypass's "token" as "struct eventfd_ctx *" instead of a
"void *", to avoid making a simple concept unnecessarily difficult
to understand
- Decouple device posted IRQs from VFIO device assignment, as binding
a VM to a VFIO group is not a requirement for enabling device
posted IRQs
- Clean up and document/comment the irqfd assignment code
- Disallow binding multiple irqfds to an eventfd with a priority
waiter, i.e. ensure an eventfd is bound to at most one irqfd
through the entire host, and add a selftest to verify eventfd:irqfd
bindings are globally unique
- Add a tracepoint for KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES to help debug issues
related to private <=> shared memory conversions
- Drop guest_memfd's .getattr() implementation as the VFS layer will
call generic_fillattr() if inode_operations.getattr is NULL
- Fix issues with dirty ring harvesting where KVM doesn't bound the
processing of entries in any way, which allows userspace to keep
KVM in a tight loop indefinitely
- Kill off kvm_arch_{start,end}_assignment() and x86's associated
tracking, now that KVM no longer uses assigned_device_count as a
heuristic for either irqbypass usage or MDS mitigation
Selftests:
- Fix a comment typo
- Verify KVM is loaded when getting any KVM module param so that
attempting to run a selftest without kvm.ko loaded results in a
SKIP message about KVM not being loaded/enabled (versus some random
parameter not existing)
- Skip tests that hit EACCES when attempting to access a file, and
print a "Root required?" help message. In most cases, the test just
needs to be run with elevated permissions"

Pull tracepoint cleanup from Steven Rostedt:
"Remove or hide unused tracepoints
Tracepoints take up memory (around 5K per tracepoint) even when they
are unused. Changes are being made to detect when a tracepoint is
defined but unused and a warning is shown at build. But those changes
are not yet ready for inclusion.
- Fix some of the unused tracepoints that it detected
Some tracepoints were removed and others were hidden by config
settings to match the config settings of where they are
instantiated. Some tracepoints were moved into architecture
specific code as only one architecture used them.
- Call the ftrace_test_filter tracepoint in an unreachable if
statement
The ftrace_test_filter tracepoint which is defined when ftrace
selftests are configured and is used to test the filter logic, but
the tracepoint is not actually called. It is put into an if
statement to not have it get compiled out, but also not warn for
not being used"

Pull runtime verification updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Added Linear temporal logic monitors for RT application
Real-time applications may have design flaws causing them to have
unexpected latency. For example, the applications may raise page
faults, or may be blocked trying to take a mutex without priority
inheritance.
However, while attempting to implement DA monitors for these
real-time rules, deterministic automaton is found to be inappropriate
as the specification language. The automaton is complicated, hard to
understand, and error-prone.
For these cases, linear temporal logic is found to be more suitable.
The LTL is more concise and intuitive.
- Make printk_deferred() public
The new monitors needed access to printk_deferred(). Make them
visible for the entire kernel.
- Add a vpanic() to allow for va_list to be passed to panic.
- Add rtapp container monitor.
A collection of monitors that check for common problems with
real-time applications that cause unexpected latency.
- Add page fault tracepoints to risc-v
These tracepoints are necessary to for the RV monitor to run on
risc-v.
- Fix the behaviour of the rv tool with -s and idle tasks.
- Allow the rv tool to gracefully terminate with SIGTERM
- Adjusts dot2c not to create lines over 100 columns
- Properly order nested monitors in the RV Kconfig file
- Return the registration error in all DA monitor instead of 0
- Update and add new sched collection monitors
Replace tss and sncid monitors with more complete sts:
Not only prove that switches occur in scheduling context and scheduling
needs interrupt disabled but also that each call to the scheduler
disables interrupts to (optionally) switch.
New monitor: nrp
Preemption requires need resched which is cleared by any switch
(includes a non optimal workaround for /nested/ preemptions)
New monitor: sssw
suspension requires setting the task to sleepable and, after the
switch occurs, the task requires a wakeup to come back to runnable
New monitor: opid
waking and need-resched operations occur with interrupts and
preemption disabled or in IRQ without explicitly disabling
preemption"

Pull ftrace updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Keep track of when fgraph_ops are registered or not
Keep accounting of when fgraph_ops are registered as if a fgraph_ops
is registered twice it can mess up the accounting and it will not
work as expected later. Trigger a warning if something registers it
twice as to catch bugs before they are found by things just not
working as expected.
- Make DYNAMIC_FTRACE always enabled for architectures that support it
As static ftrace (where all functions are always traced) is very
expensive and only exists to help architectures support ftrace, do
not make it an option. As soon as an architecture supports
DYNAMIC_FTRACE make it use it. This simplifies the code.
- Remove redundant config HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD
The CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT was added to help simplify the
DYNAMIC_FTRACE work, but now every architecture that implements
DYNAMIC_FTRACE also has HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT set too, making it
redundant with the HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE.
- Make pid_ptr string size match the comment
In print_graph_proc() the pid_ptr string is of size 11, but the
comment says /* sign + log10(MAX_INT) + '\0' */ which is actually 12.

There is also a TLBI optimisation on hardware that does not require
break-before-make when changing the user PTEs between contiguous and
non-contiguous.
More details:
Perf and PMU updates:
- Add support for new (v3) Hisilicon SLLC and DDRC PMUs
- Add support for Arm-NI PMU integrations that share interrupts
between clock domains within a given instance
- Allow SPE to be configured with a lower sample period than the
minimum recommendation advertised by PMSIDR_EL1.Interval
- Add suppport for Arm's "Branch Record Buffer Extension" (BRBE)
- Adjust the perf watchdog period according to cpu frequency changes
- Minor driver fixes and cleanups
Hardware features:
- Support for MTE store-only checking (FEAT_MTE_STORE_ONLY)
- Support for reporting the non-address bits during a synchronous MTE
tag check fault (FEAT_MTE_TAGGED_FAR)
- Optimise the TLBI when folding/unfolding contiguous PTEs on
hardware with FEAT_BBM (break-before-make) level 2 and no TLB
conflict aborts
Software features:
- Enable HAVE_LIVEPATCH after implementing arch_stack_walk_reliable()
and using the text-poke API for late module relocations
- Force VMAP_STACK always on and change arm64_efi_rt_init() to use
arch_alloc_vmap_stack() in order to avoid KASAN false positives
ACPI:
- Improve SPCR handling and messaging on systems lacking an SPCR
table
Debug:
- Simplify the debug exception entry path
- Drop redundant DBG_MDSCR_* macros
Kselftests:
- Cleanups and improvements for SME, SVE and FPSIMD tests

Pull s390 updates from Alexander Gordeev:
- Standardize on the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by GCC and
Clang compilers and replace __ASSEMBLY__ with __ASSEMBLER__ in both
uapi and non-uapi headers
- Explicitly include <linux/export.h> in architecture and driver files
which contain an EXPORT_SYMBOL() and remove the include from the
files which do not contain the EXPORT_SYMBOL()
- Use the full title of "z/Architecture Principles of Operation" manual
and the name of a section where facility bits are listed
- Use -D__DISABLE_EXPORTS for files in arch/s390/boot to avoid
unnecessary slowing down of the build and confusing external kABI
tools that process symtypes data
- Print additional unrecoverable machine check information to make the
root cause analysis easier
- Move cmpxchg_user_key() handling to uaccess library code, since the
generated code is large anyway and there is no benefit if it is
inlined
- Fix a problem when cmpxchg_user_key() is executing a code with a
non-default key: if a system is IPL-ed with "LOAD NORMAL", and the
previous system used storage keys where the fetch-protection bit was
set for some pages, and the cmpxchg_user_key() is located within such
page, a protection exception happens
- Either the external call or emergency signal order is used to send an
IPI to a remote CPU. Use the external order only, since it is at
least as good and sometimes even better, than the emergency signal
- In case of an early crash the early program check handler prints more
or less random value of the last breaking event address, since it is
not initialized properly. Copy the last breaking event address from
the lowcore to pt_regs to address this
- During STP synchronization check udelay() can not be used, since the
first CPU modifies tod_clock_base and get_tod_clock_monotonic() might
return a non-monotonic time. Instead, busy-loop on other CPUs, while
the the first CPU actually handles the synchronization operation
- When debugging the early kernel boot using QEMU with the -S flag and
GDB attached, skip the decompressor and start directly in kernel
- Rename PAI Crypto event 4210 according to z16 and z17 "z/Architecture
Principles of Operation" manual
- Remove the in-kernel time steering support in favour of the new s390
PTP driver, which allows the kernel clock steered more precisely
- Remove a possible false-positive warning in pte_free_defer(), which
could be triggered in a valid case KVM guest process is initializing

In order to support Clang's stack depth tracking (for Linux's kstack_erase
feature), the coverage sanitizer needed to be disabled for __init (and
__head) section code. Doing this universally (i.e. for GCC too) created
a number of unexpected problems, ranging from changes to inlining logic
to failures to DCE code on earlier GCC versions.
Since this change is only needed for Clang, specialize it so that GCC
doesn't see the change as it isn't needed there (the GCC implementation
of kstack_erase uses a GCC plugin that removes stack depth tracking
instrumentation from __init sections during a late pass in the IR).
Successfully build and boot tested with GCC 12 and Clang 22.
Fixes: 381a38ea53d2 ("init.h: Disable sanitizer coverage for __init and __head")

Pull timekeeping and VDSO updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Introduce support for auxiliary timekeepers
PTP clocks can be disconnected from the universal CLOCK_TAI reality
for various reasons including regularatory requirements for
functional safety redundancy.
The kernel so far only supports a single notion of time, which means
that all clocks are correlated in frequency and only differ by offset
to each other.
Access to non-correlated PTP clocks has been available so far only
through the file descriptor based "POSIX clock IDs", which are
subject to locking and have to go all the way out to the hardware.
The access is not only horribly slow, as it has to go all the way out
to the NIC/PTP hardware, but that also prevents the kernel to read
the time of such clocks e.g. from the network stack, where it is
required for TSN networking both on the transmit and receive side
unless the hardware provides offloading.
The auxiliary clocks provide a mechanism to support arbitrary clocks
which are not correlated to the system clock. This is not restricted
to the PTP use case on purpose as there is no kernel side association
of these clocks to a particular PTP device because that's a pure user
space configuration decision. Having them independent allows to
utilize them for other purposes and also enables them to be tested
without hardware dependencies.
To avoid pointless overhead these clocks have to be enabled
individualy via a new sysfs interface to reduce the overhead to a
single compare in the hotpath if they are enabled at the Kconfig
level at all.
These clocks utilize the existing timekeeping/NTP infrastructures,
which has been made possible over the recent releases by incrementaly
converting these infrastructures over from a single static instance
to a multi-instance pointer based implementation without any
performance regression reported.
The auxiliary clocks provide the same "emulation" of a "correct"
clock as the existing CLOCK_* variants do with an independent
instance of data and provide the same steering mechanism through the
existing sys_clock_adjtime() interface, which has been confirmed to
work by the chronyd(8) maintainer.
That allows to provide lockless kernel internal and VDSO support so
that applications and kernel internal functionalities can access
these clocks without restrictions and at the same performance as the
existing system clocks.
- Avoid double notifications in the adjtimex() syscall. Not a big
issue, but a trivial to avoid latency source.

The initial idea of making them const was correct as they were

container_of() casts the const attribute forcefully away.

Pull new SoC support from Arnd Bergmann:
"These five newly supported chips come with both devicetree
descriptions and the changes to wire them up to the build system for
easier bisection.
The chips in question are:
- Marvell PXA1908 was the first 64-bit mobile phone chip from Marvell
in the product line that started with the Digital StrongARM SA1100
based PDAs and continued with the Intel PXA2xx that dominated early
smartphones. This one only made it only into a few products before
the entire product line was cut in 2015.
- The QiLai SoC is made by RISC-V core designer Andes Technologies
and is in the 'Voyager' reference board in MicroATX form factor. It
uses four in-order AX45MP cores, which is the midrange product from
Andes.
- CIX P1 is one of the few Arm chips designed for small workstations,
and this one uses 12 Cortex-A720/A520 cores, making it also one of
the only ARMv9.2 machines that one can but at the moment.
- Axiado AX3000 is an embedded chip with relative small Cortex-A53
CPU cores described as a "Trusted Control/Compute Unit" that can be
used as a BMC in servers. In addition to the usual I/O, this one
comes with 10GBit ethernet and and a 4TOPS NPU.
- Sophgo SG2000 is an embedded chip that comes with both RISC-V and
Arm cores that can run Linux. This was already supported for RISC-V
but now it also works on Arm
One more chip, the Black Sesame C1200 did not make it in tirm for the
merge window"

Pull SoC devicetree updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"There are a few new variants of existing chips:
- mt6572 is an older mobile phone chip from mediatek that was
extremely popular a decade ago but never got upstreamed until now
- exynos2200 is a recent high-end mobile phone chip used in a few
Samsung phones like the Galaxy S22
- Renesas R-Car V4M-7 (R8A779H2) is an updated version of R-Car V4M
(R8A779H0) and used in automotive applications
- Tegra264 is a new chip from NVIDIA, but support is fairly minimal
for now, and not much information is public about it
There are five more chips in a separate branch, as those are new chip
families that I merged along with the necessary infrastructure.
New board support is not that exciting, with a total of 33 newly added
machines here:
- Evaluation platforms for the chips above, plus TI am62d2 and Sophgo
sg2042
- Six 32-bit industrial boards based on stm32, imx6 and am33 chips,
plus eight 64-bit rockchips rk33xx/rk35xx, am62d2, t527, imx8 and
imx95
- Two newly added ASPEED BMC based motherboards, and one that got
removed
- Phones and Tablets based on 32-bit mt6572, tegra30 and 64-bit
msm8976 SoCs
- Three Laptops based on Mediatek mt8186 and Qualcomm Snapdragon X1
- A set-top box based on Amlogic meson-gxm
Updates for existing machines are spread over all the above families.
One notable change here is support for the RP1 I/O chip used in
Raspberry Pi 5"

KVM/arm64 changes for 6.17, round #1
- Host driver for GICv5, the next generation interrupt controller for
arm64, including support for interrupt routing, MSIs, interrupt
translation and wired interrupts.
- Use FEAT_GCIE_LEGACY on GICv5 systems to virtualize GICv3 VMs on
GICv5 hardware, leveraging the legacy VGIC interface.
- Userspace control of the 'nASSGIcap' GICv3 feature, allowing
userspace to disable support for SGIs w/o an active state on hardware
that previously advertised it unconditionally.
- Map supporting endpoints with cacheable memory attributes on systems
with FEAT_S2FWB and DIC where KVM no longer needs to perform cache
maintenance on the address range.
- Nested support for FEAT_RAS and FEAT_DoubleFault2, allowing the guest
hypervisor to inject external aborts into an L2 VM and take traps of
masked external aborts to the hypervisor.
- Convert more system register sanitization to the config-driven
implementation.
- Fixes to the visibility of EL2 registers, namely making VGICv3 system
registers accessible through the VGIC device instead of the ONE_REG
vCPU ioctls.
- Various cleanups and minor fixes.

KVM SEV cache maintenance changes for 6.17
- Drop a superfluous WBINVD (on all CPUs!) when destroying a VM.
- Use WBNOINVD instead of WBINVD when possible, for SEV cache maintenance,
e.g. to minimize collateral damage when reclaiming memory from an SEV guest.
- When reclaiming memory from an SEV guest, only do cache flushes on CPUs that
have ever run a vCPU for the guest, i.e. don't flush the caches for CPUs
that can't possibly have cache lines with dirty, encrypted data.

KVM SVM changes for 6.17
Drop KVM's rejection of SNP's SMT and single-socket policy restrictions, and
instead rely on firmware to verify that the policy can actually be supported.
Don't bother checking that requested policy(s) can actually be satisfied, as
an incompatible policy doesn't put the kernel at risk in any way, and providing
guarantees with respect to the physical topology is outside of KVM's purview.
|
|
KVM local APIC changes for 6.17
Extract many of KVM's helpers for accessing architectural local APIC state
to common x86 so that they can be shared by guest-side code for Secure AVIC.
|
|
KVM x86 MMU changes for 6.17
- Exempt nested EPT from the the !USER + CR0.WP logic, as EPT doesn't interact
with CR0.WP.
- Move the TDX hardware setup code to tdx.c to better co-locate TDX code
and eliminate a few global symbols.
- Dynamically allocation the shadow MMU's hashed page list, and defer
allocating the hashed list until it's actually needed (the TDP MMU doesn't
use the list).
|
|
KVM x86 misc changes for 6.17
- Prevert the host's DEBUGCTL.FREEZE_IN_SMM (Intel only) when running the
guest. Failure to honor FREEZE_IN_SMM can bleed host state into the guest.
- Explicitly check vmcs12.GUEST_DEBUGCTL on nested VM-Enter (Intel only) to
prevent L1 from running L2 with features that KVM doesn't support, e.g. BTF.
- Intercept SPEC_CTRL on AMD if the MSR shouldn't exist according to the
vCPU's CPUID model.
- Rework the MSR interception code so that the SVM and VMX APIs are more or
less identical.
- Recalculate all MSR intercepts from the "source" on MSR filter changes, and
drop the dedicated "shadow" bitmaps (and their awful "max" size defines).
- WARN and reject loading kvm-amd.ko instead of panicking the kernel if the
nested SVM MSRPM offsets tracker can't handle an MSR.
- Advertise support for LKGS (Load Kernel GS base), a new instruction that's
loosely related to FRED, but is supported and enumerated independently.
- Fix a user-triggerable WARN that syzkaller found by stuffing INIT_RECEIVED,
a.k.a. WFS, and then putting the vCPU into VMX Root Mode (post-VMXON). Use
the same approach KVM uses for dealing with "impossible" emulation when
running a !URG guest, and simply wait until KVM_RUN to detect that the vCPU
has architecturally impossible state.
- Add KVM_X86_DISABLE_EXITS_APERFMPERF to allow disabling interception of
APERF/MPERF reads, so that a "properly" configured VM can "virtualize"
APERF/MPERF (with many caveats).
- Reject KVM_SET_TSC_KHZ if vCPUs have been created, as changing the "default"
frequency is unsupported for VMs with a "secure" TSC, and there's no known
use case for changing the default frequency for other VM types.
