Pull Kbuild fixes from Nathan Chancellor:
- Split out .modinfo section from ELF_DETAILS macro, as that macro may
be used in other areas that expect to discard .modinfo, breaking
certain image layouts
- Adjust genksyms parser to handle optional attributes in certain
declarations, necessary after commit 07919126ecfc ("netfilter:
annotate NAT helper hook pointers with __rcu")
- Include resolve_btfids in external module build created by
scripts/package/install-extmod-build when it may be run on external
modules
- Avoid removing objtool binary with 'make clean', as it is required
for external module builds

Commit 3e86e4d74c04 ("kbuild: keep .modinfo section in
vmlinux.unstripped") added .modinfo to ELF_DETAILS while removing it
from COMMON_DISCARDS, as it was needed in vmlinux.unstripped and
ELF_DETAILS was present in all architecture specific vmlinux linker
scripts. While this shuffle is fine for vmlinux, ELF_DETAILS and
COMMON_DISCARDS may be used by other linker scripts, such as the s390
and x86 compressed boot images, which may not expect to have a .modinfo
section. In certain circumstances, this could result in a bootloader
failing to load the compressed kernel [1].
Commit ddc6cbef3ef1 ("s390/boot/vmlinux.lds.S: Ensure bzImage ends with
SecureBoot trailer") recently addressed this for the s390 bzImage but
the same bug remains for arm, parisc, and x86. The presence of .modinfo
in the x86 bzImage was the root cause of the issue worked around with
commit d50f21091358 ("kbuild: align modinfo section for Secureboot
Authenticode EDK2 compat"). misc.c in arch/x86/boot/compressed includes
lib/decompress_unzstd.c, which in turn includes lib/xxhash.c and its
MODULE_LICENSE / MODULE_DESCRIPTION macros due to the STATIC definition.
Split .modinfo out from ELF_DETAILS into its own macro and handle it in
all vmlinux linker scripts. Discard .modinfo in the places where it was
previously being discarded from being in COMMON_DISCARDS, as it has
never been necessary in those uses.

s390_reset_system() calls set_prefix(0), which switches back to the
absolute lowcore. At that point the stack protector canary no longer
matches the canary from the lowcore the function was entered with, so
the stack check fails.
Mark s390_reset_system() __no_stack_protector. This is safe here since
its callers (__do_machine_kdump() and __do_machine_kexec()) are
effectively no-return and fall back to disabled_wait() on failure.

do_account_vtime() runs always with interrupts disabled, therefore use
__this_cpu_read() instead of this_cpu_read() to get rid of a pointless
preempt_disable() / preempt_enable() pair.
Also there are no concurrent writers to the cpu time accounting fields
in lowcore. Therefore get rid of READ_ONCE() usages.

Slightly optimize account_idle_time_irq() and update_timer_idle():
- Use fast single instruction __atomic64() primitives to update per
cpu idle_time and idle_count, instead of READ_ONCE() / WRITE_ONCE()
pairs
- stcctm() is an inline assembly with a full memory barrier. This
leads to a not necessary extra dereference of smp_cpu_mtid in
update_timer_idle(). Avoid this and read smp_cpu_mtid into a
variable
- Use __this_cpu_add() instead of this_cpu_add() to avoid disabling /
enabling of preemption several times in a loop in update_timer_idle().

Since delayed accounting of system time [1] the virtual timer is
forwarded by do_account_vtime() but also vtime_account_kernel(),
vtime_account_softirq(), and vtime_account_hardirq(). This leads
to double accounting of system, guest, softirq, and hardirq time.
Remove accounting from the vtime_account*() family to restore old behavior.
There is only one user of the vtimer interface, which might explain
why nobody noticed this so far.

With the conversion to generic entry [1] cpu idle exit cpu time accounting
was converted from assembly to C. This introduced an reversed order of cpu
time accounting.
On cpu idle exit the current accounting happens with the following call
chain:
-> do_io_irq()/do_ext_irq()
-> irq_enter_rcu()
-> account_hardirq_enter()
-> vtime_account_irq()
-> vtime_account_kernel()
vtime_account_kernel() accounts the passed cpu time since last_update_timer
as system time, and updates last_update_timer to the current cpu timer
value.
However the subsequent call of
-> account_idle_time_irq()
will incorrectly subtract passed cpu time from timer_idle_enter to the
updated last_update_timer value from system_timer. Then last_update_timer
is updated to a sys_enter_timer, which means that last_update_timer goes
back in time.
Subsequently account_hardirq_exit() will account too much cpu time as
hardirq time. The sum of all accounted cpu times is still correct, however
some cpu time which was previously accounted as system time is now
accounted as hardirq time, plus there is the oddity that last_update_timer
goes back in time.
Restore previous behavior by extracting cpu time accounting code from
account_idle_time_irq() into a new update_timer_idle() function and call it
before irq_enter_rcu().

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

With PREEMPT_RT as potential configuration option, spinlock_t is now
considered as a sleeping lock, and thus might cause issues when used in
an atomic context. But even with PREEMPT_RT as potential configuration
option, raw_spinlock_t remains as a true spinning lock/atomic context.
This creates potential issues with the s390 debug/tracing feature. The
functions to trace errors are called in various contexts, including
under lock of raw_spinlock_t, and thus the used spinlock_t in each debug
area is in violation of the locking semantics.
Here are two examples involving failing PCI Read accesses that are
traced while holding `pci_lock` in `drivers/pci/access.c`:

Since it is desired to keep it possible to create trace records in most
situations, including this particular case (failing PCI config space
accesses are relevant), convert the used spinlock_t in `struct
debug_info` to raw_spinlock_t.
The impact is small, as the debug area lock only protects bounded memory
access without external dependencies, apart from one function
debug_set_size() where kfree() is implicitly called with the lock held.
Move debug_info_free() out of this lock, to keep remove this external
dependency.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"Loongarch:
- Add more CPUCFG mask bits
- Improve feature detection
- Add lazy load support for FPU and binary translation (LBT) register
state
- Fix return value for memory reads from and writes to in-kernel
devices
- Add support for detecting preemption from within a guest
- Add KVM steal time test case to tools/selftests
ARM:
- Add support for FEAT_IDST, allowing ID registers that are not
implemented to be reported as a normal trap rather than as an UNDEF
exception
- Add sanitisation of the VTCR_EL2 register, fixing a number of
UXN/PXN/XN bugs in the process
- Full handling of RESx bits, instead of only RES0, and resulting in
SCTLR_EL2 being added to the list of sanitised registers
- More pKVM fixes for features that are not supposed to be exposed to
guests
- Make sure that MTE being disabled on the pKVM host doesn't give it
the ability to attack the hypervisor
- Allow pKVM's host stage-2 mappings to use the Force Write Back
version of the memory attributes by using the "pass-through'
encoding
- Fix trapping of ICC_DIR_EL1 on GICv5 hosts emulating GICv3 for the
guest
- Preliminary work for guest GICv5 support
- A bunch of debugfs fixes, removing pointless custom iterators
stored in guest data structures
- A small set of FPSIMD cleanups
- Selftest fixes addressing the incorrect alignment of page
allocation
- Other assorted low-impact fixes and spelling fixes
RISC-V:
- Fixes for issues discoverd by KVM API fuzzing in
kvm_riscv_aia_imsic_has_attr(), kvm_riscv_aia_imsic_rw_attr(), and
kvm_riscv_vcpu_aia_imsic_update()
- Allow Zalasr, Zilsd and Zclsd extensions for Guest/VM
- Transparent huge page support for hypervisor page tables
- Adjust the number of available guest irq files based on MMIO
register sizes found in the device tree or the ACPI tables
- Add RISC-V specific paging modes to KVM selftests
- Detect paging mode at runtime for selftests
s390:
- Performance improvement for vSIE (aka nested virtualization)
- Completely new memory management. s390 was a special snowflake that
enlisted help from the architecture's page table management to
build hypervisor page tables, in particular enabling sharing the
last level of page tables. This however was a lot of code (~3K
lines) in order to support KVM, and also blocked several features.
The biggest advantages is that the page size of userspace is
completely independent of the page size used by the guest:
userspace can mix normal pages, THPs and hugetlbfs as it sees fit,
and in fact transparent hugepages were not possible before. It's
also now possible to have nested guests and guests with huge pages
running on the same host
- Maintainership change for s390 vfio-pci
- Small quality of life improvement for protected guests
x86:
- Add support for giving the guest full ownership of PMU hardware
(contexted switched around the fastpath run loop) and allowing
direct access to data MSRs and PMCs (restricted by the vPMU model).
KVM still intercepts access to control registers, e.g. to enforce
event filtering and to prevent the guest from profiling sensitive
host state. This is more accurate, since it has no risk of
contention and thus dropped events, and also has significantly less
overhead.
For more information, see the commit message for merge commit
bf2c3138ae36 ("Merge tag 'kvm-x86-pmu-6.20' ...")
- Disallow changing the virtual CPU model if L2 is active, for all
the same reasons KVM disallows change the model after the first
KVM_RUN
- Fix a bug where KVM would incorrectly reject host accesses to PV
MSRs when running with KVM_CAP_ENFORCE_PV_FEATURE_CPUID enabled,
even if those were advertised as supported to userspace,
- Fix a bug with protected guest state (SEV-ES/SNP and TDX) VMs,
where KVM would attempt to read CR3 configuring an async #PF entry
- Fail the build if EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL or EXPORT_SYMBOL is used in KVM
(for x86 only) to enforce usage of EXPORT_SYMBOL_FOR_KVM_INTERNAL.
Only a few exports that are intended for external usage, and those
are allowed explicitly
- When checking nested events after a vCPU is unblocked, ignore
-EBUSY instead of WARNing. Userspace can sometimes put the vCPU
into what should be an impossible state, and spurious exit to
userspace on -EBUSY does not really do anything to solve the issue
- Also throw in the towel and drop the WARN on INIT/SIPI being
blocked when vCPU is in Wait-For-SIPI, which also resulted in
playing whack-a-mole with syzkaller stuffing architecturally
impossible states into KVM
- Add support for new Intel instructions that don't require anything
beyond enumerating feature flags to userspace
- Grab SRCU when reading PDPTRs in KVM_GET_SREGS2
- Add WARNs to guard against modifying KVM's CPU caps outside of the
intended setup flow, as nested VMX in particular is sensitive to
unexpected changes in KVM's golden configuration
- Add a quirk to allow userspace to opt-in to actually suppress EOI
broadcasts when the suppression feature is enabled by the guest
(currently limited to split IRQCHIP, i.e. userspace I/O APIC).
Sadly, simply fixing KVM to honor Suppress EOI Broadcasts isn't an
option as some userspaces have come to rely on KVM's buggy behavior
(KVM advertises Supress EOI Broadcast irrespective of whether or
not userspace I/O APIC supports Directed EOIs)
- Clean up KVM's handling of marking mapped vCPU pages dirty
- Drop a pile of *ancient* sanity checks hidden behind in KVM's
unused ASSERT() macro, most of which could be trivially triggered
by the guest and/or user, and all of which were useless
- Fold "struct dest_map" into its sole user, "struct rtc_status", to
make it more obvious what the weird parameter is used for, and to
allow fropping these RTC shenanigans if CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=n
- Bury all of ioapic.h, i8254.h and related ioctls (including
KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP) behind CONFIG_KVM_IOAPIC=y
- Add a regression test for recent APICv update fixes
- Handle "hardware APIC ISR", a.k.a. SVI, updates in
kvm_apic_update_apicv() to consolidate the updates, and to
co-locate SVI updates with the updates for KVM's own cache of ISR
information
- Drop a dead function declaration
- Minor cleanups
x86 (Intel):
- Rework KVM's handling of VMCS updates while L2 is active to
temporarily switch to vmcs01 instead of deferring the update until
the next nested VM-Exit.
The deferred updates approach directly contributed to several bugs,
was proving to be a maintenance burden due to the difficulty in
auditing the correctness of deferred updates, and was polluting
"struct nested_vmx" with a growing pile of booleans
- Fix an SGX bug where KVM would incorrectly try to handle EPCM page
faults, and instead always reflect them into the guest. Since KVM
doesn't shadow EPCM entries, EPCM violations cannot be due to KVM
interference and can't be resolved by KVM
- Fix a bug where KVM would register its posted interrupt wakeup
handler even if loading kvm-intel.ko ultimately failed
- Disallow access to vmcb12 fields that aren't fully supported,
mostly to avoid weirdness and complexity for FRED and other
features, where KVM wants enable VMCS shadowing for fields that
conditionally exist
- Print out the "bad" offsets and values if kvm-intel.ko refuses to
load (or refuses to online a CPU) due to a VMCS config mismatch
x86 (AMD):
- Drop a user-triggerable WARN on nested_svm_load_cr3() failure
- Add support for virtualizing ERAPS. Note, correct virtualization of
ERAPS relies on an upcoming, publicly announced change in the APM
to reduce the set of conditions where hardware (i.e. KVM) *must*
flush the RAP
- Ignore nSVM intercepts for instructions that are not supported
according to L1's virtual CPU model
- Add support for expedited writes to the fast MMIO bus, a la VMX's
fastpath for EPT Misconfig
- Don't set GIF when clearing EFER.SVME, as GIF exists independently
of SVM, and allow userspace to restore nested state with GIF=0
- Treat exit_code as an unsigned 64-bit value through all of KVM
- Add support for fetching SNP certificates from userspace
- Fix a bug where KVM would use vmcb02 instead of vmcb01 when
emulating VMLOAD or VMSAVE on behalf of L2
- Misc fixes and cleanups
x86 selftests:
- Add a regression test for TPR<=>CR8 synchronization and IRQ masking
- Overhaul selftest's MMU infrastructure to genericize stage-2 MMU
support, and extend x86's infrastructure to support EPT and NPT
(for L2 guests)
- Extend several nested VMX tests to also cover nested SVM
- Add a selftest for nested VMLOAD/VMSAVE
- Rework the nested dirty log test, originally added as a regression
test for PML where KVM logged L2 GPAs instead of L1 GPAs, to
improve test coverage and to hopefully make the test easier to
understand and maintain
guest_memfd:
- Remove kvm_gmem_populate()'s preparation tracking and half-baked
hugepage handling. SEV/SNP was the only user of the tracking and it
can do it via the RMP
- Retroactively document and enforce (for SNP) that
KVM_SEV_SNP_LAUNCH_UPDATE and KVM_TDX_INIT_MEM_REGION require the
source page to be 4KiB aligned, to avoid non-trivial complexity for
something that no known VMM seems to be doing and to avoid an API
special case for in-place conversion, which simply can't support
unaligned sources
- When populating guest_memfd memory, GUP the source page in common
code and pass the refcounted page to the vendor callback, instead
of letting vendor code do the heavy lifting. Doing so avoids a
looming deadlock bug with in-place due an AB-BA conflict betwee
mmap_lock and guest_memfd's filemap invalidate lock
Generic:
- Fix a bug where KVM would ignore the vCPU's selected address space
when creating a vCPU-specific mapping of guest memory. Actually
this bug could not be hit even on x86, the only architecture with
multiple address spaces, but it's a bug nevertheless"

Pull VDSO updates from Thomas Gleixner:
- Provide the missing 64-bit variant of clock_getres()
This allows the extension of CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME to the vDSO and
finally the removal of 32-bit time types from the kernel and UAPI.
- Remove the useless and broken getcpu_cache from the VDSO
The intention was to provide a trivial way to retrieve the CPU number
from the VDSO, but as the VDSO data is per process there is no way to
make it work.
- Switch get/put_unaligned() from packed struct to memcpy()
The packed struct violates strict aliasing rules which requires to
pass -fno-strict-aliasing to the compiler. As this are scalar values
__builtin_memcpy() turns them into simple loads and stores
- Use __typeof_unqual__() for __unqual_scalar_typeof()
The get/put_unaligned() changes triggered a new sparse warning when
__beNN types are used with get/put_unaligned() as sparse builds add a
special 'bitwise' attribute to them which prevents sparse to evaluate
the Generic in __unqual_scalar_typeof().
Newer sparse versions support __typeof_unqual__() which avoids the
problem, but requires a recent sparse install. So this adds a sanity
check to sparse builds, which validates that sparse is available and
capable of handling it.
- Force inline __cvdso_clock_getres_common()
Compilers sometimes un-inline agressively, which results in function
call overhead and problems with automatic stack variable
initialization.
Interestingly enough the force inlining results in smaller code than
the un-inlined variant produced by GCC when optimizing for size.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Scheduler Kconfig space updates:
- Further consolidate configurable preemption modes (Peter Zijlstra)
Reduce the number of architectures that are allowed to offer
PREEMPT_NONE and PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY, reducing the number of
preemption models from four to just two: 'full' and 'lazy' on
up-to-date architectures (arm64, loongarch, powerpc, riscv, s390,
x86).
None and voluntary are only available as legacy features on
platforms that don't implement lazy preemption yet, or which don't
even support preemption.
The goal is to eventually remove cond_resched() and voluntary
preemption altogether.
RSEQ based 'scheduler time slice extension' support (Thomas Gleixner
and Peter Zijlstra):
This allows a thread to request a time slice extension when it enters
a critical section to avoid contention on a resource when the thread
is scheduled out inside of the critical section.
- Add fields and constants for time slice extension
- Provide static branch for time slice extensions
- Add statistics for time slice extensions
- Add prctl() to enable time slice extensions
- Implement sys_rseq_slice_yield()

- Avoid false sharing for sched_clock_irqtime (Wangyang Guo)
- Cleanups (Yury Norov):
- Drop useless cpumask_empty() in find_energy_efficient_cpu()
- Simplify task_numa_find_cpu()
- Use cpumask_weight_and() in sched_balance_find_dst_group()

Fernandes, with fixes by Peter Zijlstra)
RT scheduler updates:
- Skip currently executing CPU in rto_next_cpu() (Chen Jinghuang)
Entry code updates and performance improvements (Jinjie Ruan)

- Rework syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work() for architecture reuse
- Add arch_ptrace_report_syscall_entry/exit()
- Inline syscall_exit_work() and syscall_trace_enter()

Switch KVM/s390 to use the new gmap code.
Remove includes to <gmap.h> and include "gmap.h" instead; fix all the
existing users of the old gmap functions to use the new ones instead.
Fix guest storage key access functions to work with the new gmap.

uv_destroy_folio() and uv_convert_from_secure_folio() should work on

This was fine until now, but it will become a problem with upcoming

Currently, if the command line passed to kexec_file_load() exceeds
the supported limit of the kernel being kexec'd, -EINVAL is returned
to userspace, which is consistent across architectures. Since
-EINVAL is not specific to this case, the kexec tool cannot provide
a specific reason for the failure. Many architectures emit an error
message in this case. Add a similar error message, including the
effective limit, since the command line length is configurable.

Running commands
# ./perf record -IR0,R1 -a sleep 1
extracts and displays register value of general purpose register r1 and r0.
However the value displayed of any register is random and does not
reflect the register value recorded at the time of the sample interrupt.
The sampling device driver on s390 creates a very large buffer
for the hardware to store the samples. Only when that large buffer
gets full an interrupt is generated and many hundreds of sample
entries are processed and copied to the kernel ring buffer and
eventually get copied to the perf tool. It is during the copy
to the kernel ring buffer that each sample is processed (on s390)
and at that time the register values are extracted.
This is not the original goal, the register values should be read
when the samples are created not when the samples are copied to the
kernel ring buffer.
Prevent this event from being installed in the first place and
return -EOPNOTSUPP. This is already the case for PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_USER.

In order to avoid rather pointless warning disassemblies of __WARN_trap()
set the PSW address to the return address of the function which called
__WARN_trap(). This is the address to which __WARN_trap() would return
in any case.
The result is a disassembly of the function which called __WARN_trap(),
which is much more helpful.

This is the s390 variant of commit 5b472b6e5bd9 ("x86_64/bug: Implement
__WARN_printf()"). See the x86 commit for the general idea; there are only
implementation details which are different.
With the new exception based __WARN_printf() implementation the generated
code for a simple WARN() is simplified.
For example:
void foo(int a) { WARN(a, "bar"); }
Before this change the generated code looks like this:

In case of a monitor call program check the CPU stores the monitor code to
lowcore. Let the program check handler copy it to the pt_regs structure so
it can be used by the monitor call exception handler.
Instead of increasing the pt_regs size add a union which contains both
orig_gpr2 and monitor_code, since orig_gpr2 is not used in case of a
program check.

Every architecture that supports hugetlb_cma command line parameter
reserves CMA areas for hugetlb during setup_arch().
This obfuscates the ordering of hugetlb CMA initialization with respect to
the rest initialization of the core MM.
Introduce arch_hugetlb_cma_order() callback to allow architectures report
the desired order-per-bit of CMA areas and provide a week implementation
of arch_hugetlb_cma_order() for architectures that don't support hugetlb
with CMA.
Use this callback in hugetlb_cma_reserve() instead if passing the order as
parameter and call hugetlb_cma_reserve() from mm_core_init_early() rather
than have it spread over architecture specific code.

Provide a new syscall which has the only purpose to yield the CPU after the
kernel granted a time slice extension.
sched_yield() is not suitable for that because it unconditionally
schedules, but the end of the time slice extension is not required to
schedule when the task was already preempted. This also allows to have a
strict check for termination to catch user space invoking random syscalls
including sched_yield() from a time slice extension region.

Remove <linux/hex.h> from <linux/kernel.h> and update all users/callers of
hex.h interfaces to directly #include <linux/hex.h> as part of the process
of putting kernel.h on a diet.
Removing hex.h from kernel.h means that 36K C source files don't have to
pay the price of parsing hex.h for the roughly 120 C source files that
need it.
This change has been build-tested with allmodconfig on most ARCHes. Also,
all users/callers of <linux/hex.h> in the entire source tree have been
updated if needed (if not already #included).

The cache parameter of getcpu() is useless nowadays for various reasons.
* It is never passed by userspace for either the vDSO or syscalls.
* It is never used by the kernel.
* It could not be made to work on the current vDSO architecture.
* The structure definition is not part of the UAPI headers.
* vdso_getcpu() is superseded by restartable sequences in any case.
Remove the struct and its header.
As a side-effect this gets rid of an unwanted inclusion of the linux/
header namespace from vDSO code.

The logic to fallback to the return address (RA) register value in
the topmost frame when stack tracing using back chain is broken in
multiple ways:
When assuming the RA register 14 has not been saved yet one must assume
that a new user stack frame has not been allocated either. Therefore
the back chain would not contain the stack pointer (SP) at entry, but
the caller's SP at its entry instead.
Therefore when falling back to the RA register 14 value it would also be
necessary to fallback to the SP register 15 value. Otherwise an invalid
combination of RA register 14 and caller's SP at its entry (from the
back chain) is used.
In the topmost frame the back chain contains either the caller's SP at
its entry (before having allocated a new stack frame in the prologue),
the SP at entry (after having allocated a new stack frame), or an
uninitialized value (during static/dynamic stack allocation). In both
cases where the back chain is valid either the caller or prologue must
have saved its respective RA to the respective frame. Therefore, if the
RA obtained from the frame pointed to by the back chain is invalid, this
does not indicate that the IP in the topmost frame is still early in the
prologue and the RA has not been saved.

With z16 a new flag 'search boot program' was introduced for
list-directed IPL (SCSI, NVMe, ECKD DASD). If this flag is set,
e.g. via selecting the "Automatic" value for the "Boot program
selector" control on an HMC load panel, it is copied to the reipl
structure from the initial ipl structure. When a user now sets a
boot prog via sysfs, the flag is not cleared and the bootloader
will again automatically select the boot program, ignoring user
configuration.
To avoid that, clear the SBP flag when a bootprog sysfs file is
written.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"ARM:
- Support for userspace handling of synchronous external aborts
(SEAs), allowing the VMM to potentially handle the abort in a
non-fatal manner
- Large rework of the VGIC's list register handling with the goal of
supporting more active/pending IRQs than available list registers
in hardware. In addition, the VGIC now supports EOImode==1 style
deactivations for IRQs which may occur on a separate vCPU than the
one that acked the IRQ
- Support for FEAT_XNX (user / privileged execute permissions) and
FEAT_HAF (hardware update to the Access Flag) in the software page
table walkers and shadow MMU
- Allow page table destruction to reschedule, fixing long
need_resched latencies observed when destroying a large VM
- Minor fixes to KVM and selftests
Loongarch:
- Get VM PMU capability from HW GCFG register
- Add AVEC basic support
- Use 64-bit register definition for EIOINTC
- Add KVM timer test cases for tools/selftests
RISC/V:
- SBI message passing (MPXY) support for KVM guest
- Give a new, more specific error subcode for the case when in-kernel
AIA virtualization fails to allocate IMSIC VS-file
- Support KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET, enabling dirty log gradually
in small chunks
- Fix guest page fault within HLV* instructions
- Flush VS-stage TLB after VCPU migration for Andes cores
s390:
- Always allocate ESCA (Extended System Control Area), instead of
starting with the basic SCA and converting to ESCA with the
addition of the 65th vCPU. The price is increased number of exits
(and worse performance) on z10 and earlier processor; ESCA was
introduced by z114/z196 in 2010
- VIRT_XFER_TO_GUEST_WORK support
- Operation exception forwarding support
- Cleanups
x86:
- Skip the costly "zap all SPTEs" on an MMIO generation wrap if MMIO
SPTE caching is disabled, as there can't be any relevant SPTEs to
zap
- Relocate a misplaced export
- Fix an async #PF bug where KVM would clear the completion queue
when the guest transitioned in and out of paging mode, e.g. when
handling an SMI and then returning to paged mode via RSM
- Leave KVM's user-return notifier registered even when disabling
virtualization, as long as kvm.ko is loaded. On reboot/shutdown,
keeping the notifier registered is ok; the kernel does not use the
MSRs and the callback will run cleanly and restore host MSRs if the
CPU manages to return to userspace before the system goes down
- Use the checked version of {get,put}_user()
- Fix a long-lurking bug where KVM's lack of catch-up logic for
periodic APIC timers can result in a hard lockup in the host
- Revert the periodic kvmclock sync logic now that KVM doesn't use a
clocksource that's subject to NTP corrections
- Clean up KVM's handling of MMIO Stale Data and L1TF, and bury the
latter behind CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS
- Context switch XCR0, XSS, and PKRU outside of the entry/exit fast
path; the only reason they were handled in the fast path was to
paper of a bug in the core #MC code, and that has long since been
fixed
- Add emulator support for AVX MOV instructions, to play nice with
emulated devices whose guest drivers like to access PCI BARs with
large multi-byte instructions
x86 (AMD):
- Fix a few missing "VMCB dirty" bugs
- Fix the worst of KVM's lack of EFER.LMSLE emulation
- Add AVIC support for addressing 4k vCPUs in x2AVIC mode
- Fix incorrect handling of selective CR0 writes when checking
intercepts during emulation of L2 instructions
- Fix a currently-benign bug where KVM would clobber SPEC_CTRL[63:32]
on VMRUN and #VMEXIT
- Fix a bug where KVM corrupt the guest code stream when re-injecting
a soft interrupt if the guest patched the underlying code after the
VM-Exit, e.g. when Linux patches code with a temporary INT3
- Add KVM_X86_SNP_POLICY_BITS to advertise supported SNP policy bits
to userspace, and extend KVM "support" to all policy bits that
don't require any actual support from KVM
x86 (Intel):
- Use the root role from kvm_mmu_page to construct EPTPs instead of
the current vCPU state, partly as worthwhile cleanup, but mostly to
pave the way for tracking per-root TLB flushes, and elide EPT
flushes on pCPU migration if the root is clean from a previous
flush
- Add a few missing nested consistency checks
- Rip out support for doing "early" consistency checks via hardware
as the functionality hasn't been used in years and is no longer
useful in general; replace it with an off-by-default module param
to WARN if hardware fails a check that KVM does not perform
- Fix a currently-benign bug where KVM would drop the guest's
SPEC_CTRL[63:32] on VM-Enter
- Misc cleanups
- Overhaul the TDX code to address systemic races where KVM (acting
on behalf of userspace) could inadvertantly trigger lock contention
in the TDX-Module; KVM was either working around these in weird,
ugly ways, or was simply oblivious to them (though even Yan's
devilish selftests could only break individual VMs, not the host
kernel)
- Fix a bug where KVM could corrupt a vCPU's cpu_list when freeing a
TDX vCPU, if creating said vCPU failed partway through
- Fix a few sparse warnings (bad annotation, 0 != NULL)
- Use struct_size() to simplify copying TDX capabilities to userspace
- Fix a bug where TDX would effectively corrupt user-return MSR
values if the TDX Module rejects VP.ENTER and thus doesn't clobber
host MSRs as expected
Selftests:
- Fix a math goof in mmu_stress_test when running on a single-CPU
system/VM
- Forcefully override ARCH from x86_64 to x86 to play nice with
specifying ARCH=x86_64 on the command line
- Extend a bunch of nested VMX to validate nested SVM as well
- Add support for LA57 in the core VM_MODE_xxx macro, and add a test
to verify KVM can save/restore nested VMX state when L1 is using
5-level paging, but L2 is not
- Clean up the guest paging code in anticipation of sharing the core
logic for nested EPT and nested NPT
guest_memfd:
- Add NUMA mempolicy support for guest_memfd, and clean up a variety
of rough edges in guest_memfd along the way
- Define a CLASS to automatically handle get+put when grabbing a
guest_memfd from a memslot to make it harder to leak references
- Enhance KVM selftests to make it easer to develop and debug
selftests like those added for guest_memfd NUMA support, e.g. where
test and/or KVM bugs often result in hard-to-debug SIGBUS errors
- Misc cleanups
Generic:
- Use the recently-added WQ_PERCPU when creating the per-CPU
workqueue for irqfd cleanup
- Fix a goof in the dirty ring documentation
- Fix choice of target for directed yield across different calls to
kvm_vcpu_on_spin(); the function was always starting from the first
vCPU instead of continuing the round-robin search"

Pull s390 updates from Heiko Carstens:
- Provide a new interface for dynamic configuration and deconfiguration
of hotplug memory, allowing with and without memmap_on_memory
support. This makes the way memory hotplug is handled on s390 much
more similar to other architectures
- Remove compat support. There shouldn't be any compat user space
around anymore, therefore get rid of a lot of code which also doesn't
need to be tested anymore
- Add stackprotector support. GCC 16 will get new compiler options,
which allow to generate code required for kernel stackprotector
support
- Merge pai_crypto and pai_ext PMU drivers into a new driver. This
removes a lot of duplicated code. The new driver is also extendable
and allows to support new PMUs
- Add driver override support for AP queues
- Rework and extend zcrypt and AP trace events to allow for tracing of
crypto requests
- Support block sizes larger than 65535 bytes for CCW tape devices
- Since the rework of the virtual kernel address space the module area
and the kernel image are within the same 4GB area. This eliminates
the need of weak per cpu variables. Get rid of
ARCH_MODULE_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU
- Various other small improvements and fixes

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:
- klp-build livepatch module generation (Josh Poimboeuf)
Introduce new objtool features and a klp-build script to generate
livepatch modules using a source .patch as input.
This builds on concepts from the longstanding out-of-tree kpatch
project which began in 2012 and has been used for many years to
generate livepatch modules for production kernels. However, this is a
complete rewrite which incorporates hard-earned lessons from 12+
years of maintaining kpatch.
Key improvements compared to kpatch-build:
- Integrated with objtool: Leverages objtool's existing control-flow
graph analysis to help detect changed functions.
- Works on vmlinux.o: Supports late-linked objects, making it
compatible with LTO, IBT, and similar.
- Simplified code base: ~3k fewer lines of code.
- Upstream: No more out-of-tree #ifdef hacks, far less cruft.
- Cleaner internals: Vastly simplified logic for
symbol/section/reloc inclusion and special section extraction.
- Robust __LINE__ macro handling: Avoids false positive binary diffs
caused by the __LINE__ macro by introducing a fix-patch-lines
script which injects #line directives into the source .patch to
preserve the original line numbers at compile time.
- Disassemble code with libopcodes instead of running objdump
(Alexandre Chartre)

Move enabling and disabling of interrupts around the SIE instruction to
entry code. Enabling interrupts only after the __TI_sie flag has been set
guarantees that the SIE instruction is not executed if an interrupt happens
between enabling interrupts and the execution of the SIE instruction.
Interrupt handlers and machine check handler forward the PSW to the
sie_exit label in such cases.
This is a prerequisite for VIRT_XFER_TO_GUEST_WORK to prevent that guest
context is entered when e.g. a scheduler IPI, indicating that a reschedule
is required, happens right before the SIE instruction, which could lead to
long delays.

The compiler/assembler flag -m64 is added and removed at two locations.
This pointless exercise is a leftover to keep the 31 and 64 bit vdso
Makefiles as symmetrical as possible. Given that the 31 bit vdso code
does not exist anymore, remove the -m64 flag handling.

This simplifies the vDSO linker script. The ELF_DETAILS macro was not
used in addition, as done on arm64 and powerpc, as that would introduce
an empty .modinfo section.
Note that this rearranges the .comment section to follow after all of
the debug sections.
