Initialize MSR_TSC_AUX with CPU node information if RDTSCP or RDPID is
supported. This fixes a bug where vdso_read_cpunode() will read garbage
via RDPID if RDPID is supported but RDTSCP is not. While no known CPU
supports RDPID but not RDTSCP, both Intel's SDM and AMD's APM allow for
RDPID to exist without RDTSCP, e.g. it's technically a legal CPU model
for a virtual machine.
Note, technically MSR_TSC_AUX could be initialized if and only if RDPID
is supported since RDTSCP is currently not used to retrieve the CPU node.
But, the cost of the superfluous WRMSR is negigible, whereas leaving
MSR_TSC_AUX uninitialized is just asking for future breakage if someone
decides to utilize RDTSCP.
Fixes: a582c540ac1b ("x86/vdso: Use RDPID in preference to LSL when available")

We used to generate this constant with static jumps, which certainly
works, but generates some quite unreadable and horrid code, and extra
jumps.
It's actually much simpler to just use our alternative_asm()
infrastructure to generate a simple alternative constant, making the
generated code much more obvious (and straight-line rather than "jump
around to load the right constant").

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"New feature:
- A new "func-no-repeats" option in tracefs/options directory.
When set the function tracer will detect if the current function
being traced is the same as the previous one, and instead of
recording it, it will keep track of the number of times that the
function is repeated in a row. And when another function is
recorded, it will write a new event that shows the function that
repeated, the number of times it repeated and the time stamp of
when the last repeated function occurred.
Enhancements:
- In order to implement the above "func-no-repeats" option, the ring
buffer timestamp can now give the accurate timestamp of the event
as it is being recorded, instead of having to record an absolute
timestamp for all events. This helps the histogram code which no
longer needs to waste ring buffer space.
- New validation logic to make sure all trace events that access
dereferenced pointers do so in a safe way, and will warn otherwise.
Fixes:
- No longer limit the PIDs of tasks that are recorded for
"saved_cmdlines" to PID_MAX_DEFAULT (32768), as systemd now allows
for a much larger range. This caused the mapping of PIDs to the
task names to be dropped for all tasks with a PID greater than
32768.
- Change trace_clock_global() to never block. This caused a deadlock.
Clean ups:
- Typos, prototype fixes, and removing of duplicate or unused code.
- Better management of ftrace_page allocations"

Pull orangefs updates from Mike Marshall:
"orangefs: implement orangefs_readahead
mm/readahead.c/read_pages was quite a bit different back when I put my
open-coded readahead logic into orangefs_readpage. That logic seemed
to work as designed back then, it is a trainwreck now.
This implements orangefs_readahead using the new xarray and
readahead_expand features and removes all my open-coded readahead
logic.
This results in an extreme read performance improvement, these sample
numbers are from my test VM:
Here's an example of what's upstream in
5.11.8-200.fc33.x86_64:
30+0 records in
30+0 records out

Pull Landlock LSM from James Morris:
"Add Landlock, a new LSM from Mickaël Salaün.
Briefly, Landlock provides for unprivileged application sandboxing.
From Mickaël's cover letter:
"The goal of Landlock is to enable to restrict ambient rights (e.g.
global filesystem access) for a set of processes. Because Landlock
is a stackable LSM [1], it makes possible to create safe security
sandboxes as new security layers in addition to the existing
system-wide access-controls. This kind of sandbox is expected to
help mitigate the security impact of bugs or unexpected/malicious
behaviors in user-space applications. Landlock empowers any
process, including unprivileged ones, to securely restrict
themselves.
Landlock is inspired by seccomp-bpf but instead of filtering
syscalls and their raw arguments, a Landlock rule can restrict the
use of kernel objects like file hierarchies, according to the
kernel semantic. Landlock also takes inspiration from other OS
sandbox mechanisms: XNU Sandbox, FreeBSD Capsicum or OpenBSD
Pledge/Unveil.
In this current form, Landlock misses some access-control features.
This enables to minimize this patch series and ease review. This
series still addresses multiple use cases, especially with the
combined use of seccomp-bpf: applications with built-in sandboxing,
init systems, security sandbox tools and security-oriented APIs [2]"

The generic/464 xfstest causes kAFS to emit occasional warnings of the
form:
kAFS: vnode modified {100055:8a} 30->31 YFS.StoreData64 (c=6015)
This indicates that the data version received back from the server did not
match the expected value (the DV should be incremented monotonically for
each individual modification op committed to a vnode).
What is happening is that a lookup call is doing a bulk status fetch
speculatively on a bunch of vnodes in a directory besides getting the
status of the vnode it's actually interested in. This is racing with a
StoreData operation (though it could also occur with, say, a MakeDir op).
On the client, a modification operation locks the vnode, but the bulk
status fetch only locks the parent directory, so no ordering is imposed
there (thereby avoiding an avenue to deadlock).
On the server, the StoreData op handler doesn't lock the vnode until it's
received all the request data, and downgrades the lock after committing the
data until it has finished sending change notifications to other clients -
which allows the status fetch to occur before it has finished.
This means that:
- a status fetch can access the target vnode either side of the exclusive
section of the modification
- the status fetch could start before the modification, yet finish after,
and vice-versa.
- the status fetch and the modification RPCs can complete in either order.
- the status fetch can return either the before or the after DV from the
modification.
- the status fetch might regress the locally cached DV.
Some of these are handled by the previous fix[1], but that's not sufficient
because it checks the DV it received against the DV it cached at the start
of the op, but the DV might've been updated in the meantime by a locally
generated modification op.
Fix this by the following means:
(1) Keep track of when we're performing a modification operation on a
vnode. This is done by marking vnode parameters with a 'modification'
note that causes the AFS_VNODE_MODIFYING flag to be set on the vnode
for the duration.
(2) Alter the speculation race detection to ignore speculative status
fetches if either the vnode is marked as being modified or the data
version number is not what we expected.
Note that whilst the "vnode modified" warning does get recovered from as it
causes the client to refetch the status at the next opportunity, it will
also invalidate the pagecache, so changes might get lost.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu
Pull iommu updates from Joerg Roedel:
- Big cleanup of almost unsused parts of the IOMMU API by Christoph
Hellwig. This mostly affects the Freescale PAMU driver.
- New IOMMU driver for Unisoc SOCs
- ARM SMMU Updates from Will:
- Drop vestigial PREFETCH_ADDR support (SMMUv3)
- Elide TLB sync logic for empty gather (SMMUv3)
- Fix "Service Failure Mode" handling (SMMUv3)
- New Qualcomm compatible string (SMMUv2)
- Removal of the AMD IOMMU performance counter writeable check on AMD.
It caused long boot delays on some machines and is only needed to
work around an errata on some older (possibly pre-production) chips.
If someone is still hit by this hardware issue anyway the performance
counters will just return 0.
- Support for targeted invalidations in the AMD IOMMU driver. Before
that the driver only invalidated a single 4k page or the whole IO/TLB
for an address space. This has been extended now and is mostly useful
for emulated AMD IOMMUs.
- Several fixes for the Shared Virtual Memory support in the Intel VT-d
driver
- Mediatek drivers can now be built as modules
- Re-introduction of the forcedac boot option which got lost when
converting the Intel VT-d driver to the common dma-iommu
implementation.
- Extension of the IOMMU device registration interface and support
iommu_ops to be const again when drivers are built as modules.

Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij:
"There is a lot going on!
Core changes:
- A semantic change to handle pinmux and pinconf in explicit order
while up until now we depended on the semantic order in the device
tree. The device tree is a functional programming language and does
not imply any order, so the right thing is for the pin control core
to provide these semantics.
- Add a new pinmux-select debugfs file which makes it possible to go
in and select functions for a pin manually (iteratively, at the
prompt) for debugging purposes.
- Fixes to gpio regmap handling for a new pin control driver making
use of regmap-gpio.
- Use octal permissions on debugfs files.
New drivers:
- A massive rewrite of the former custom pin control driver for MIPS
Broadcom devices to instead use the pin control subsystem. New pin
control drivers for BCM6345, BCM6328, BCM6358, BCM6362, BCM6368,
BCM63268 and BCM6318 SoC variants are implemented.
- Support for PM8350, PM8350B, PM8350C, PMK8350, PMR735A and PMR735B
in the Qualcomm PMIC GPIO driver. Also the two GPIOs on PM8008 are
supported.
- Support for the Rockchip RK3568/RK3566 pin controller.
- Support for Ingenic JZ4730, JZ4750, JZ4755, JZ4775 and X2000.
- Support for Mediatek MTK8195.
- Add a new Xilinx ZynqMP pin control driver.
Driver improvements and non-urgent fixes:
- Modularization and improvements of the Rockchip drivers.
- Some new pins added to the description of new Renesas SoCs.
- Clarifications of the GPIO base calculation in the Intel driver.
- Fix the function names for the MPP54 and MPP55 pins in the Armada
CP110 pin controller.
- GPIO wakeup interrupt map for Qualcomm SC7280 and SM8350.
- Support for ACPI probing of the Qualcomm SC8180x.
- Fix interrupt clear status on rockchip
- Fix some missing pins on the Ingenic JZ4770, some semantic fixes
for the behaviour of the Ingenic pin controller. Add DMIC pins for
JZ4780, X1000, X1500 and X1830.
- A slew of janitorial like of_node_put() calls"

Pull sound updates from Takashi Iwai:
"No surprises in this development cycle, and most of work is about the
fixes and the improvements of the existing code, while a new LED
control layer and a few new drivers have been introduced.
Here are some highlights:
Core:
- A common mute-LED framework was introduced. It is used by HD-audio
for now, more adaption will follow later. The former "Mic Mute-LED
Mode" mixer control has been replaced with the corresponding sysfs
now.
- User-control management was changed to count consumed bytes instead
of capping by number of elements; this will allow more controls in
the normal usage pattern while avoiding the possible memory
exhaustion DoS
ASoC:
- Continued refactoring and cleanups in ASoC core and generic card
drivers
- Wide range of small cppcheck and warning fixes
- New drivers for Freescale i.MX DMA over rpmsg, Mediatek MT6358
accessory detection, and Realtek RT1019, RT1316, RT711 and RT715

Pull module updates from Jessica Yu:
"Fix an age old bug involving jump_calls and static_labels when
CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD=n.
When CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD=n, it means you can't unload modules, so
normally the __exit sections of a module are not loaded at all.
However, dynamic code patching (jump_label, static_call, alternatives)
can have sites in __exit sections even if __exit is never executed.
Reported by Peter Zijlstra:
'Alternatives, jump_labels and static_call all can have relocations
into __exit code. Not loading it at all would be BAD.'
Therefore, load the __exit sections even when CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD=n,
and discard them after init"

It appears that unmap_mapping_range() actually takes a 'size' as its third
argument rather than a location, the current calling fashion causes
unnecessary amount of unmapping to occur.

On !ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC (like ia64) debug_pagealloc=1 implies
page_poison=on:
if (page_poisoning_enabled() ||
(!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC) &&
debug_pagealloc_enabled()))
static_branch_enable(&_page_poisoning_enabled);
page_poison=on needs to override init_on_free=1.
Before the change it did not work as expected for the following case:
- have PAGE_POISONING=y
- have page_poison unset
- have !ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC arch (like ia64)
- have init_on_free=1
- have debug_pagealloc=1
That way we get both keys enabled:
- static_branch_enable(&init_on_free);
- static_branch_enable(&_page_poisoning_enabled);
which leads to poisoned pages returned for __GFP_ZERO pages.
After the change we execute only:
- static_branch_enable(&_page_poisoning_enabled);
and ignore init_on_free=1.

There are cases where the page_pool need to refill with pages from the
page allocator. Some workloads cause the page_pool to release pages
instead of recycling these pages.
For these workload it can improve performance to bulk alloc pages from the
page-allocator to refill the alloc cache.
For XDP-redirect workload with 100G mlx5 driver (that use page_pool)
redirecting xdp_frame packets into a veth, that does XDP_PASS to create an
SKB from the xdp_frame, which then cannot return the page to the
page_pool.
Performance results under GitHub xdp-project[1]:

Patch series "SUNRPC consumer for the bulk page allocator"
This patch set and the measurements below are based on yesterday's
bulk allocator series:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mel/linux.git mm-bulk-rebase-v5r9
The patches change SUNRPC to invoke the array-based bulk allocator
instead of alloc_page().
The micro-benchmark results are promising. I ran a mixture of 256KB
reads and writes over NFSv3. The server's kernel is built with KASAN
enabled, so the comparison is exaggerated but I believe it is still
valid.
I instrumented svc_recv() to measure the latency of each call to
svc_alloc_arg() and report it via a trace point. The following results
are averages across the trace events.
Single page: 25.007 us per call over 532,571 calls
Bulk list: 6.258 us per call over 517,034 calls
Bulk array: 4.590 us per call over 517,442 calls
This patch (of 2)
Refactor:
I'm about to use the loop variable @i for something else.
As far as the "i++" is concerned, that is a post-increment. The
value of @i is not used subsequently, so the increment operator
is unnecessary and can be removed.
Also note that nfsd_read_actor() was renamed nfsd_splice_actor()
by commit cf8208d0eabd ("sendfile: convert nfsd to
splice_direct_to_actor()").

Looking at perf-report and ASM-code for __alloc_pages_bulk() it is clear
that the code activated is suboptimal. The compiler guesses wrong and
places unlikely code at the beginning. Due to the use of WARN_ON_ONCE()
macro the UD2 asm instruction is added to the code, which confuse the
I-cache prefetcher in the CPU.

The proposed callers for the bulk allocator store pages from the bulk
allocator in an array. This patch adds an array-based interface to the
API to avoid multiple list iterations. The page list interface is
preserved to avoid requiring all users of the bulk API to allocate and
manage enough storage to store the pages.

This patch adds a new page allocator interface via alloc_pages_bulk, and
__alloc_pages_bulk_nodemask. A caller requests a number of pages to be
allocated and added to a list.
The API is not guaranteed to return the requested number of pages and
may fail if the preferred allocation zone has limited free memory, the
cpuset changes during the allocation or page debugging decides to fail
an allocation. It's up to the caller to request more pages in batch if
necessary.
Note that this implementation is not very efficient and could be
improved but it would require refactoring. The intent is to make it
available early to determine what semantics are required by different
callers. Once the full semantics are nailed down, it can be refactored.

Patch series "Introduce a bulk order-0 page allocator with two in-tree users", v6.
This series introduces a bulk order-0 page allocator with sunrpc and the
network page pool being the first users. The implementation is not
efficient as semantics needed to be ironed out first. If no other
semantic changes are needed, it can be made more efficient. Despite that,
this is a performance-related for users that require multiple pages for an
operation without multiple round-trips to the page allocator. Quoting the
last patch for the high-speed networking use-case
Kernel XDP stats CPU pps Delta
Baseline XDP-RX CPU total 3,771,046 n/a
List XDP-RX CPU total 3,940,242 +4.49%
Array XDP-RX CPU total 4,249,224 +12.68%
Via the SUNRPC traces of svc_alloc_arg()
Single page: 25.007 us per call over 532,571 calls
Bulk list: 6.258 us per call over 517,034 calls
Bulk array: 4.590 us per call over 517,442 calls
Both potential users in this series are corner cases (NFS and high-speed
networks) so it is unlikely that most users will see any benefit in the
short term. Other potential other users are batch allocations for page
cache readahead, fault around and SLUB allocations when high-order pages
are unavailable. It's unknown how much benefit would be seen by
converting multiple page allocation calls to a single batch or what
difference it may make to headline performance.
Light testing of my own running dbench over NFS passed. Chuck and Jesper
conducted their own tests and details are included in the changelogs.
Patch 1 renames a variable name that is particularly unpopular
Patch 2 adds a bulk page allocator
Patch 3 adds an array-based version of the bulk allocator
Patches 4-5 adds micro-optimisations to the implementation
Patches 6-7 SUNRPC user
Patches 8-9 Network page_pool user
This patch (of 9):
Review feedback of the bulk allocator twice found problems with "alloced"
being a counter for pages allocated. The naming was based on the API name
"alloc" and was based on the idea that verbal communication about malloc
tends to use the fake word "malloced" instead of the fake word mallocated.
To be consistent, this preparation patch renames alloced to allocated in
rmqueue_bulk so the bulk allocator and per-cpu allocator use similar names
when the bulk allocator is introduced.
