<content type='text'>
Commit aa47a7c215e7 ("lib/cpumask: deprecate nr_cpumask_bits") resulted
in the cpumask operations potentially becoming hugely less efficient,
because suddenly the cpumask was always considered to be variable-sized.

The optimization was then later added back in a limited form by commit
6f9c07be9d02 ("lib/cpumask: add FORCE_NR_CPUS config option"), but that
FORCE_NR_CPUS option is not useful in a generic kernel and more of a
special case for embedded situations with fixed hardware.

Instead, just re-introduce the optimization, with some changes.

Instead of depending on CPUMASK_OFFSTACK being false, and then always
using the full constant cpumask width, this introduces three different
cpumask "sizes":

 - the exact size (nr_cpumask_bits) remains identical to nr_cpu_ids.

   This is used for situations where we should use the exact size.

 - the "small" size (small_cpumask_bits) is the NR_CPUS constant if it
   fits in a single word and the bitmap operations thus end up able
   to trigger the "small_const_nbits()" optimizations.

   This is used for the operations that have optimized single-word
   cases that get inlined, notably the bit find and scanning functions.

 - the "large" size (large_cpumask_bits) is the NR_CPUS constant if it
   is an sufficiently small constant that makes simple "copy" and
   "clear" operations more efficient.

   This is arbitrarily set at four words or less.

As a an example of this situation, without this fixed size optimization,
cpumask_clear() will generate code like

        movl    nr_cpu_ids(%rip), %edx
        addq    $63, %rdx
        shrq    $3, %rdx
        andl    $-8, %edx
        callq   memset@PLT

on x86-64, because it would calculate the "exact" number of longwords
that need to be cleared.

In contrast, with this patch, using a MAX_CPU of 64 (which is quite a
reasonable value to use), the above becomes a single

	movq $0,cpumask

instruction instead, because instead of caring to figure out exactly how
many CPU's the system has, it just knows that the cpumask will be a
single word and can just clear it all.

Note that this does end up tightening the rules a bit from the original
version in another way: operations that set bits in the cpumask are now
limited to the actual nr_cpu_ids limit, whereas we used to do the
nr_cpumask_bits thing almost everywhere in the cpumask code.

But if you just clear bits, or scan for bits, we can use the simpler
compile-time constants.

In the process, remove 'cpumask_complement()' and 'for_each_cpu_not()'
which were not useful, and which fundamentally have to be limited to
'nr_cpu_ids'.  Better remove them now than have somebody introduce use
of them later.

Of course, on x86-64 with MAXSMP there is no sane small compile-time
constant for the cpumask sizes, and we end up using the actual CPU bits,
and will generate the above kind of horrors regardless.  Please don't
use MAXSMP unless you really expect to have machines with thousands of
cores.

Where the compiler instruments meminstrinsics by generating calls to
__asan/__hwasan_ prefixed functions, let the compiler consider
memintrinsics as builtin again.

To do so, never override memset/memmove/memcpy if the compiler does the
correct instrumentation - even on !GENERIC_ENTRY architectures.

<title>lib/zlib: DFLTCC deflate does not write all available bits for Z_NO_FLUSH</title>

<id>1c0a0af511effbd75beffa6c5e54fd64d3563860</id>
<content type='text'>
DFLTCC deflate with Z_NO_FLUSH might generate a corrupted stream when the
output buffer is not large enough to fit all the deflate output at once. 
The problem takes place on closing the deflate block since flush_pending()
might leave some output bits not written.  Similar problem for software
deflate with Z_BLOCK flush option (not supported by kernel zlib deflate)
has been fixed a while ago in userspace zlib but the fix never got to the
kernel.

Now flush_pending() flushes the bit buffer before copying out the byte
buffer, in order to really flush as much as possible.

Currently there are no users of DFLTCC deflate with Z_NO_FLUSH option in
the kernel so the problem remained hidden for a while.

This commit is based on the old zlib commit:

KUnit's 'hooks.o' file need to be built-in whenever KUnit is enabled
(even if CONFIG_KUNIT=m).  We'd previously attemtped to do this by
adding 'kunit/hooks.o' to obj-y in lib/Makefile, but this caused hooks.c
to be rebuilt even when it was unchanged.

Instead, always recurse into lib/kunit using obj-y when KUnit is
enabled, and add the hooks there.

Pull Compute Express Link (CXL) updates from Dan Williams:
 "To date Linux has been dependent on platform-firmware to map CXL RAM
  regions and handle events / errors from devices. With this update we
  can now parse / update the CXL memory layout, and report events /
  errors from devices. This is a precursor for the CXL subsystem to
  handle the end-to-end "RAS" flow for CXL memory. i.e. the flow that
  for DDR-attached-DRAM is handled by the EDAC driver where it maps
  system physical address events to a field-replaceable-unit (FRU /
  endpoint device). In general, CXL has the potential to standardize
  what has historically been a pile of memory-controller-specific error
  handling logic.

  Another change of note is the default policy for handling RAM-backed
  device-dax instances. Previously the default access mode was "device",
  mmap(2) a device special file to access memory. The new default is
  "kmem" where the address range is assigned to the core-mm via
  add_memory_driver_managed(). This saves typical users from wondering
  why their platform memory is not visible via free(1) and stuck behind
  a device-file. At the same time it allows expert users to deploy
  policy to, for example, get dedicated access to high performance
  memory, or hide low performance memory from general purpose kernel
  allocations. This affects not only CXL, but also systems with
  high-bandwidth-memory that platform-firmware tags with the
  EFI_MEMORY_SP (special purpose) designation.

  Summary:

   - CXL RAM region enumeration: instantiate 'struct cxl_region' objects
     for platform firmware created memory regions

   - CXL RAM region provisioning: complement the existing PMEM region
     creation support with RAM region support

   - "Soft Reservation" policy change: Online (memory hot-add)
     soft-reserved memory (EFI_MEMORY_SP) by default, but still allow
     for setting aside such memory for dedicated access via device-dax.

   - CXL Events and Interrupts: Takeover CXL event handling from
     platform-firmware (ACPI calls this CXL Memory Error Reporting) and
     export CXL Events via Linux Trace Events.

   - Convey CXL _OSC results to drivers: Similar to PCI, let the CXL
     subsystem interrogate the result of CXL _OSC negotiation.

   - Emulate CXL DVSEC Range Registers as "decoders": Allow for
     first-generation devices that pre-date the definition of the CXL
     HDM Decoder Capability to translate the CXL DVSEC Range Registers
     into 'struct cxl_decoder' objects.

   - Set timestamp: Per spec, set the device timestamp in case of
     hotplug, or if platform-firwmare failed to set it.

   - General fixups: linux-next build issues, non-urgent fixes for
     pre-production hardware, unit test fixes, spelling and debug
     message improvements"

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.3-rc1.

  There's a lot of changes this development cycle, most of the work
  falls into two different categories:

   - fw_devlink fixes and updates. This has gone through numerous review
     cycles and lots of review and testing by lots of different devices.
     Hopefully all should be good now, and Saravana will be keeping a
     watch for any potential regression on odd embedded systems.

   - driver core changes to work to make struct bus_type able to be
     moved into read-only memory (i.e. const) The recent work with Rust
     has pointed out a number of areas in the driver core where we are
     passing around and working with structures that really do not have
     to be dynamic at all, and they should be able to be read-only
     making things safer overall. This is the contuation of that work
     (started last release with kobject changes) in moving struct
     bus_type to be constant. We didn't quite make it for this release,
     but the remaining patches will be finished up for the release after
     this one, but the groundwork has been laid for this effort.

  Other than that we have in here:

   - debugfs memory leak fixes in some subsystems

   - error path cleanups and fixes for some never-able-to-be-hit
     codepaths.

   - cacheinfo rework and fixes

   - Other tiny fixes, full details are in the shortlog

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  problems"

[ Geert Uytterhoeven points out that that last sentence isn't true, and
  that there's a pending report that has a fix that is queued up - Linus ]
