init: handle bootloader identifier in kernel parameters
BootLoaders (Grub, LILO, etc) may pass an identifier such as "BOOT_IMAGE=
/boot/vmlinuz-x.y.z" to kernel parameters. But these identifiers are not
recognized by the kernel itself so will be passed to userspace. However
user space init program also don't recognize it.
KEXEC/KDUMP (kexec-tools) may also pass an identifier such as "kexec" on
some architectures.
We cannot change BootLoader's behavior, because this behavior exists for
many years, and there are already user space programs search BOOT_IMAGE=
in /proc/cmdline to obtain the kernel image locations:
https://github.com/linuxdeepin/deepin-ab-recovery/blob/master/util.go
(search getBootOptions)
https://github.com/linuxdeepin/deepin-ab-recovery/blob/master/main.go
(search getKernelReleaseWithBootOption) So the the best way is handle
(ignore) it by the kernel itself, which can avoid such boot warnings (if
we use something like init=/bin/bash, bootloader identifier can even cause
a crash):

Unknown kernel command line parameters "BOOT_IMAGE=(hd0,1)/vmlinuz-6.x", will be passed to user space.

idr test suite: remove usage of the deprecated ida_simple_xx() API
Patch series "ida: Remove the ida_simple_xxx() API", v3.
These are the final steps in removing the ida_simple_xxx() API.
This series was last proposed in August 2024. Since then, some users of
the old API have be re-introduced and then removed.
A first time in drivers/misc/rpmb-core.c, added in commit 1e9046e3a154
("rpmb: add Replay Protected Memory Block (RPMB) subsystem") (2024-08-26)
and removed in commit dfc881abca42 ("rpmb: Remove usage of the deprecated
ida_simple_xx() API") (2024-10-13).
A second time in drivers/gpio/gpio-mpsse.c, added in commit c46a74ff05c0
("gpio: add support for FTDI's MPSSE as GPIO") (2024-10-14) and removed in
commit f57c08492866 (gpio: mpsse: Remove usage of the deprecated
ida_simple_xx() API) (2024-11-22).
Since then, I've not spotted any new usage.
So things being stable now, it's time to end this story once and for all.
This patch (of 3):
ida_alloc() and ida_free() should be preferred to the deprecated
ida_simple_get() and ida_simple_remove().
Note that the upper limit of ida_simple_get() is exclusive, but the one of
ida_alloc_range()/ida_alloc_max() is inclusive. But because of the ranges
used for the tests, there is no need to adjust them.
kcov: use write memory barrier after memcpy() in kcov_move_area()
KCOV Remote uses two separate memory buffers, one private to the kernel
space (kcov_remote_areas) and the second one shared between user and
kernel space (kcov->area). After every pair of kcov_remote_start() and
kcov_remote_stop(), the coverage data collected in the kcov_remote_areas
is copied to kcov->area so the user can read the collected coverage data.
This memcpy() is located in kcov_move_area().
The load/store pattern on the kernel-side [1] is:
```
/* dst_area === kcov->area, dst_area[0] is where the count is stored */
dst_len = READ_ONCE(*(unsigned long *)dst_area);
...
memcpy(dst_entries, src_entries, ...);
...
WRITE_ONCE(*(unsigned long *)dst_area, dst_len + entries_moved);
```
And for the user [2]:
```
/* cover is equivalent to kcov->area */
n = __atomic_load_n(&cover[0], __ATOMIC_RELAXED);
```
Without a write-memory barrier, the atomic load for the user can
potentially read fresh values of the count stored at cover[0], but
continue to read stale coverage data from the buffer itself. Hence, we
recommend adding a write-memory barrier between the memcpy() and the
WRITE_ONCE() in kcov_move_area().

trees. On these systems, failing to pass a device tree to the new kernel
causes a boot failure.
To add support for this, we copy the behavior of ARM64 and PowerPC and
copy the current boot's device tree blob for use in the new kernel. We do
this on x86 by passing the device tree blob as a setup_data entry in
accordance with the x86 boot protocol.
This behavior is gated behind the KEXEC_FILE_FORCE_DTB flag.

ALSA: firewire-motu: drop EPOLLOUT from poll return values as write is not supported
The ALSA HwDep character device of the firewire-motu driver incorrectly
returns EPOLLOUT in poll(2), even though the driver implements no operation
for write(2). This misleads userspace applications to believe write() is
allowed, potentially resulting in unnecessarily wakeups.
This issue dates back to the driver's initial code added by a commit 71c3797779d3 ("ALSA: firewire-motu: add hwdep interface"), and persisted
when POLLOUT was updated to EPOLLOUT by a commit a9a08845e9ac ('vfs: do
bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacement("").').

KVM: arm64: nv: Fix ATS12 handling of single-stage translation
Volodymyr reports that using a Xen DomU as a nested guest (where
HCR_EL2.E2H == 0), ATS12 results in a translation that stops at
the L2's S1, which isn't something you'd normally expects.
Comparing the code against the spec proves to be illuminating,
and suggests that the author of such code must have been tired,
cross-eyed, drunk, or maybe all of the above.
The gist of it is that, apart from HCR_EL2.VM or HCR_EL2.DC being
0, only the use of the EL2&0 translation regime limits the walk
to S1 only, and that we must finish the S2 walk in any other case.
Which solves the above issue, as E2H==0 indicates that ATS12 walks
the EL1&0 translation regime.

Volodymyr reports (again!) that under some circumstances (E2H==0,
walking S1 PTs), PAR_EL1 doesn't report the value of the latest
walk in the CPU register, but that instead the value is written to
the backing store.
Further investigation indicates that the root cause of this is
that a group of registers (PAR_EL1, TPIDR*_EL{0,1}, the *32_EL2 dregs)
should always be considered as "on CPU", as they are not remapped
between EL1 and EL2.
We fail to treat them accordingly, and end-up considering that
the register (PAR_EL1 in this example) should be written to memory
instead of in the register.
While it would be possible to quickly work around it, it is obvious
that the way we track these things at the moment is pretty horrible,
and could do with some improvement.
Revamp the whole thing by:
- defining a location for a register (memory, cpu), potentially
depending on the state of the vcpu
- define a transformation for this register (mapped register, potential
translation, special register needing some particular attention)
- convey this information in a structure that can be easily passed
around
As a result, the accessors themselves become much simpler, as the
state is explicit instead of being driven by hard-to-understand
conventions.
We get rid of the "pure EL2 register" notion, which wasn't very
useful, and add sanitisation of the values by applying the RESx
masks as required, something that was missing so far.
And of course, we add the missing registers to the list, with the
indication that they are always loaded.

ALSA: hda: Avoid binding with SOF for SKL/KBL platforms
For Intel SKL and KBL platforms, it may be bound with one of three
HD-audio drivers (AVS, SOF and legacy). AVS is the preferred one when
DMIC is detected, and that's how it's defined in the snd-intel-dspcfg
config table.
But, when AVS driver is disabled (CONFIG_SND_SOC_INTEL_AVS=n), the
device may be bound freely with either SOF or legacy driver.
Before 6.17, the legacy driver took it primarily, but on 6.17, likely
due to the recent code shuffling, SOF driver seems taking it at first,
and fails to probe. For avoiding the regression, we should enforce to
bind those with the legacy HD-audio drvier when AVS is disabled.
This patch adds the extra two entries in intel-dspcfg table that are
applied only when CONFIG_SND_SOC_INTEL_AVS=n, for binding with the
legacy driver.
Note that there are entries for APL in that config table block, but
APL may be supported by SOF for certain setups, so the choice can't be
exclusive. Hence this patch includes only SKL and KBL.

ublk selftests: add --no_ublk_fixed_fd for not using registered ublk char device
Add a new command line option --no_ublk_fixed_fd that excludes the ublk
control device (/dev/ublkcN) from io_uring's registered files array.
When this option is used, only backing files are registered starting
from index 1, while the ublk control device is accessed using its raw
file descriptor.
Add ublk_get_registered_fd() helper function that returns the appropriate
file descriptor for use with io_uring operations.
Key optimizations implemented:
- Cache UBLKS_Q_NO_UBLK_FIXED_FD flag in ublk_queue.flags to avoid
reading dev->no_ublk_fixed_fd in fast path
- Cache ublk char device fd in ublk_queue.ublk_fd for fast access
- Update ublk_get_registered_fd() to use ublk_queue * parameter
- Update io_uring_prep_buf_register/unregister() to use ublk_queue *

WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 135 at drivers/block/ublk_drv.c:1933 ublk_ch_release+0x423/0x4b0 [ublk_drv]
This happens when the daemon is abruptly killed:
- some references may still be held, because registering IO buffer
doesn't grab ublk char device reference
OR
- io->task_registered_buffers won't be cleared because io buffer is
released from non-daemon context
For zero-copy and auto buffer register modes, I/O reference crosses
syscalls, so IO reference may not be dropped naturally when ublk server is
killed abruptly. However, when releasing io_uring context, it is guaranteed
that the reference is dropped finally, see io_sqe_buffers_unregister() from
io_ring_ctx_free().
Fix this by adding ublk_drain_io_references() that:
- Waits for active I/O references dropped in async way by scheduling
work function, for avoiding ublk dev and io_uring file's release
dependency
- Reinitializes io->ref and io->task_registered_buffers to clean state
This ensures the reference count state is clean when ublk_queue_reinit()

io_uring/kbuf: always use READ_ONCE() to read ring provided buffer lengths
Since the buffers are mapped from userspace, it is prudent to use
READ_ONCE() to read the value into a local variable, and use that for
any other actions taken. Having a stable read of the buffer length
avoids worrying about it changing after checking, or being read multiple

Similarly, the buffer may well change in between it being picked and

mm: introduce and use {pgd,p4d}_populate_kernel()
Introduce and use {pgd,p4d}_populate_kernel() in core MM code when
populating PGD and P4D entries for the kernel address space. These
helpers ensure proper synchronization of page tables when updating the
kernel portion of top-level page tables.
Until now, the kernel has relied on each architecture to handle
synchronization of top-level page tables in an ad-hoc manner. For
example, see commit 9b861528a801 ("x86-64, mem: Update all PGDs for direct
mapping and vmemmap mapping changes").
However, this approach has proven fragile for following reasons:
1) It is easy to forget to perform the necessary page table
synchronization when introducing new changes.
For instance, commit 4917f55b4ef9 ("mm/sparse-vmemmap: improve memory
savings for compound devmaps") overlooked the need to synchronize
page tables for the vmemmap area.
2) It is also easy to overlook that the vmemmap and direct mapping areas
must not be accessed before explicit page table synchronization.
For example, commit 8d400913c231 ("x86/vmemmap: handle unpopulated
sub-pmd ranges")) caused crashes by accessing the vmemmap area
before calling sync_global_pgds().
To address this, as suggested by Dave Hansen, introduce _kernel() variants
of the page table population helpers, which invoke architecture-specific
hooks to properly synchronize page tables. These are introduced in a new
header file, include/linux/pgalloc.h, so they can be called from common
code.
They reuse existing infrastructure for vmalloc and ioremap.
Synchronization requirements are determined by ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK,
and the actual synchronization is performed by
arch_sync_kernel_mappings().
This change currently targets only x86_64, so only PGD and P4D level
helpers are introduced. Currently, these helpers are no-ops since no
architecture sets PGTBL_{PGD,P4D}_MODIFIED in ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK.
In theory, PUD and PMD level helpers can be added later if needed by other
architectures. For now, 32-bit architectures (x86-32 and arm) only handle
PGTBL_PMD_MODIFIED, so p*d_populate_kernel() will never affect them unless
we introduce a PMD level helper.

mm: move page table sync declarations to linux/pgtable.h
During our internal testing, we started observing intermittent boot
failures when the machine uses 4-level paging and has a large amount of
persistent memory:
It turns out that the kernel panics while initializing vmemmap (struct
page array) when the vmemmap region spans two PGD entries, because the new
PGD entry is only installed in init_mm.pgd, but not in the page tables of
other tasks.
And looking at __populate_section_memmap():
if (vmemmap_can_optimize(altmap, pgmap))
// does not sync top level page tables
r = vmemmap_populate_compound_pages(pfn, start, end, nid, pgmap);
else
// sync top level page tables in x86
r = vmemmap_populate(start, end, nid, altmap);
In the normal path, vmemmap_populate() in arch/x86/mm/init_64.c
synchronizes the top level page table (See commit 9b861528a801 ("x86-64,
mem: Update all PGDs for direct mapping and vmemmap mapping changes")) so
that all tasks in the system can see the new vmemmap area.
However, when vmemmap_can_optimize() returns true, the optimized path
skips synchronization of top-level page tables. This is because
vmemmap_populate_compound_pages() is implemented in core MM code, which
does not handle synchronization of the top-level page tables. Instead,
the core MM has historically relied on each architecture to perform this
synchronization manually.
We're not the first party to encounter a crash caused by not-sync'd top
level page tables: earlier this year, Gwan-gyeong Mun attempted to address
the issue [1] [2] after hitting a kernel panic when x86 code accessed the
vmemmap area before the corresponding top-level entries were synced. At
that time, the issue was believed to be triggered only when struct page
was enlarged for debugging purposes, and the patch did not get further
updates.
It turns out that current approach of relying on each arch to handle the
page table sync manually is fragile because 1) it's easy to forget to sync
the top level page table, and 2) it's also easy to overlook that the
kernel should not access the vmemmap and direct mapping areas before the
sync.
# The solution: Make page table sync more code robust and harder to miss
To address this, Dave Hansen suggested [3] [4] introducing
{pgd,p4d}_populate_kernel() for updating kernel portion of the page tables
and allow each architecture to explicitly perform synchronization when
installing top-level entries. With this approach, we no longer need to
worry about missing the sync step, reducing the risk of future
regressions.
The new interface reuses existing ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK,
PGTBL_P*D_MODIFIED and arch_sync_kernel_mappings() facility used by
vmalloc and ioremap to synchronize page tables.
pgd_populate_kernel() looks like this:
static inline void pgd_populate_kernel(unsigned long addr, pgd_t *pgd,
p4d_t *p4d)
{
pgd_populate(&init_mm, pgd, p4d);
if (ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK & PGTBL_PGD_MODIFIED)
arch_sync_kernel_mappings(addr, addr);
}
It is worth noting that vmalloc() and apply_to_range() carefully
synchronizes page tables by calling p*d_alloc_track() and
arch_sync_kernel_mappings(), and thus they are not affected by this patch
series.
This series was hugely inspired by Dave Hansen's suggestion and hence
added Suggested-by: Dave Hansen.
Cc stable because lack of this series opens the door to intermittent
boot failures.
This patch (of 3):
Move ARCH_PAGE_TABLE_SYNC_MASK and arch_sync_kernel_mappings() to
linux/pgtable.h so that they can be used outside of vmalloc and ioremap.

adding those parameters when "CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS" is enabled.
Replace the version check with "CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX",
which already validates that mem-intrinsic prefix parameter can be used,
and choose the correct name depending on compiler.
GCC 13 and above trigger "CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX" which
prevents `mem{cpy,move,set}()` being redefined in "mm/kasan/shadow.c"
since commit 36be5cba99f6 ("kasan: treat meminstrinsic as builtins in
uninstrumented files"), as we expect the compiler to prefix those calls
with `__(hw)asan_` instead. But as the option passed to GCC has been
incorrect, the compiler has not been emitting those prefixes, effectively
never calling the instrumented versions of `mem{cpy,move,set}()` with
"CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS" enabled.
If "CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCES" is enabled, this issue would be mitigated as
it redefines `mem{cpy,move,set}()` and properly aliases the
`__underlying_mem*()` that will be called to the instrumented versions.

Functions __kasan_populate_vmalloc() and __kasan_depopulate_vmalloc() use
apply_to_pte_range(), which enters lazy MMU mode. In that mode updating
PTEs may not be observed until the mode is left.
That may lead to a situation in which otherwise correct reads and writes
to a PTE using ptep_get(), set_pte(), pte_clear() and other access
primitives bring wrong results when the vmalloc shadow memory is being
(de-)populated.
To avoid these hazards leave the lazy MMU mode before and re-enter it
after each PTE manipulation.

While working on the lazy MMU mode enablement for s390 I hit pretty
curious issues in the kasan code.
The first is related to a custom kasan-based sanitizer aimed at catching
invalid accesses to PTEs and is inspired by [1] conversation. The kasan
complains on valid PTE accesses, while the shadow memory is reported as
unpoisoned:
This series fixes the above issues and is a pre-requisite for the s390
lazy MMU mode implementation.
test_vmalloc was used to stress-test the fixes.
This patch (of 2):
When vmalloc shadow memory is established the modification of the
corresponding page tables is not protected by any locks. Instead, the
locking is done per-PTE. This scheme however has defects.
kasan_populate_vmalloc_pte() - while ptep_get() read is atomic the
sequence pte_none(ptep_get()) is not. Doing that outside of the lock
might lead to a concurrent PTE update and what could be seen as a shadow
memory corruption as result.
kasan_depopulate_vmalloc_pte() - by the time a page whose address was
extracted from ptep_get() read and cached in a local variable outside of
the lock is attempted to get free, could actually be freed already.
To avoid these put ptep_get() itself and the code that manipulates the
result of the read under lock. In addition, move freeing of the page out
of the atomic context.
