Enabling KCSAN is causing a large number of duplicate types in BTF for
core kernel structs like task_struct [1]. This is due to the definition
in include/linux/compiler_types.h
`#ifdef __SANITIZE_THREAD__
...
`#define __data_racy volatile
..
`#else
...
`#define __data_racy
...
`#endif
Because some objects in the kernel are compiled without KCSAN flags
(KCSAN_SANITIZE) we sometimes get the empty __data_racy annotation for
objects; as a result we get multiple conflicting representations of the
associated structs in DWARF, and these lead to multiple instances of core
kernel types in BTF since they cannot be deduplicated due to the
additional modifier in some instances.
Moving the __data_racy definition under CONFIG_KCSAN avoids this problem,
since the volatile modifier will be present for both KCSAN and
KCSAN_SANITIZE objects in a CONFIG_KCSAN=y kernel.

Introduce an in-kernel test module to validate the core logic of the Live
Update Orchestrator's File-Lifecycle-Bound feature. This provides a
low-level, controlled environment to test FLB registration and callback
invocation without requiring userspace interaction or actual kexec
reboots.
The test is enabled by the CONFIG_LIVEUPDATE_TEST Kconfig option.

Introduce a mechanism for managing global kernel state whose lifecycle is
tied to the preservation of one or more files. This is necessary for
subsystems where multiple preserved file descriptors depend on a single,
shared underlying resource.
An example is HugeTLB, where multiple file descriptors such as memfd and
guest_memfd may rely on the state of a single HugeTLB subsystem.
Preserving this state for each individual file would be redundant and
incorrect. The state should be preserved only once when the first file is
preserved, and restored/finished only once the last file is handled.
This patch introduces File-Lifecycle-Bound (FLB) objects to solve this
problem. An FLB is a global, reference-counted object with a defined set
of operations:
- A file handler (struct liveupdate_file_handler) declares a dependency
on one or more FLBs via a new registration function,
liveupdate_register_flb().
- When the first file depending on an FLB is preserved, the FLB's
.preserve() callback is invoked to save the shared global state. The
reference count is then incremented for each subsequent file.
- Conversely, when the last file is unpreserved (before reboot) or
finished (after reboot), the FLB's .unpreserve() or .finish() callback
is invoked to clean up the global resource.
The implementation includes:
- A new set of ABI definitions (luo_flb_ser, luo_flb_head_ser) and a
corresponding FDT node (luo-flb) to serialize the state of all active
FLBs and pass them via Kexec Handover.
- Core logic in luo_flb.c to manage FLB registration, reference
counting, and the invocation of lifecycle callbacks.
- An API (liveupdate_flb_get/_incoming/_outgoing) for other kernel
subsystems to safely access the live object managed by an FLB, both
before and after the live update.
This framework provides the necessary infrastructure for more complex
subsystems like IOMMU, VFIO, and KVM to integrate with the Live Update
Orchestrator.

Patch series "list private v2 & luo flb", v9.
This series introduces two connected infrastructure improvements: a new
API for handling private linked lists, and the "File-Lifecycle-Bound"
(FLB) mechanism for the Live Update Orchestrator.
1. Private List Primitives (patches 1-3)
Recently, Linux introduced the ability to mark structure members as
__private and access them via ACCESS_PRIVATE(). This enforces better
encapsulation by ensuring internal details are only accessible by the
owning subsystem.
However, struct list_head is frequently used as an internal linkage
mechanism within these private sections. The standard macros in
<linux/list.h> do not support ACCESS_PRIVATE() natively. Consequently,
subsystems using private lists are forced to implement ad-hoc
workarounds or local iterator macros.
This series adds <linux/list_private.h>, providing a set of
primitives identical to those in <linux/list.h> but designed for
private list heads. It also includes a KUnit test suite to verify that
the macros correctly handle pointer offsets and qualifiers.
2. This series adds FLB (patches 4-5) support to Live Update that also
internally uses private lists.
FLB allows global kernel state (such as IOMMU domains or HugeTLB
state) to be preserved once, shared across multiple file descriptors,
and restored when needed. This is necessary for subsystems where
multiple preserved file descriptors depend on a single, shared
underlying resource. Preserving this state for each individual file
would be redundant and incorrect.
FLB uses reference counting tied to the lifecycle of preserved
files. The state is preserved when the first file depending on it is
preserved, and restored or cleaned up only when the last file is
handled.
This patch (of 5):
Linux recently added an ability to add private members to structs (i.e.
__private) and access them via ACCESS_PRIVATE(). This ensures that those
members are only accessible by the subsystem which owns the struct type,
and not to the object owner.
However, struct list_head often needs to be placed into the private
section to be manipulated privately by the subsystem.
Add macros to support private list manipulations in
<linux/list_private.h>.

The custom definition of 'struct timespec64' is incompatible with both the
kernel's internal definition and the glibc type, at least on big-endian
targets that have the tv_nsec field in a different place, and the
definition clashes with any userspace that also defines a timespec64
structure.
Running the header check with -Wpadding enabled produces this output that
warns about the incorrect padding:
usr/include/linux/taskstats.h:25:1: error: padding struct size to alignment boundary with 4 bytes [-Werror=padded]
Remove the hack and instead use the regular __kernel_timespec type that is
meant to be used in uapi definitions.

Some platforms require panic handling to execute on a specific CPU for
crash dump to work reliably. This can be due to firmware limitations,
interrupt routing constraints, or platform-specific requirements where
only a single CPU is able to safely enter the crash kernel.
Add the panic_force_cpu= kernel command-line parameter to redirect panic
execution to a designated CPU. When the parameter is provided, the CPU
that initially triggers panic forwards the panic context to the target CPU
via IPI, which then proceeds with the normal panic and kexec flow.
The IPI delivery is implemented as a weak function
(panic_smp_redirect_cpu) so architectures with NMI support can override it
for more reliable delivery.
If the specified CPU is invalid, offline, or a panic is already in
progress on another CPU, the redirection is skipped and panic continues on
the current CPU.

The IPC sysctls implement the ctl_table_root::permissions hook and they
override the file access mode based on the CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE
capability, which is being checked regardless of whether any access is
actually denied or not, so if an LSM denies the capability, an audit
record may be logged even when access is in fact granted.
It wouldn't be viable to restructure the sysctl permission logic to only
check the capability when the access would be actually denied if it's not
granted. Thus, do the same as in net_ctl_permissions() (net/sysctl_net.c)
- switch from ns_capable() to ns_capable_noaudit(), so that the check
never emits an audit record.

Problem
=======
Commit 658eb5ab916d ("delayacct: add delay max to record delay peak")
introduced the delay max for getdelays, which records abnormal latency
peaks and helps us understand the magnitude of such delays. However, the
peak latency value alone is insufficient for effective root cause
analysis. Without the precise timestamp of when the peak occurred, we
still lack the critical context needed to correlate it with other system
events.
Solution
========
To address this, we need to additionally record a precise timestamp when
the maximum latency occurs. By correlating this timestamp with system
logs and monitoring metrics, we can identify processes with abnormal
resource usage at the same moment, which can help us to pinpoint root
causes.
Use Case

Tracing is a half of the kernel.h in terms of LOCs, although it's a
self-consistent part. It is intended for quick debugging purposes and
isn't used by the normal tracing utilities.
Move it to a separate header. If someone needs to just throw a
trace_printk() in their driver, they will not have to pull all the heavy
tracing machinery.
This is a pure move.

The __trace_puts() function takes a string pointer and the size of the
string itself. All users currently simply pass in the strlen() of the
string it is also passing in. There's no reason to pass in the size.
Instead have the __trace_puts() function do the strlen() within the
function itself.
This fixes a header recursion issue where using strlen() in the macro
calling __trace_puts() requires adding #include <linux/string.h> in order
to use strlen(). Removing the use of strlen() from the header fixes the
recursion issue.

Patch series "Unload linux/kernel.h", v5.
kernel.h hosts declarations that can be placed better. This series
decouples kernel.h with some explicit and implicit dependencies; also,
moves tracing functionality to a new independent header.
This patch (of 6):
The macro was introduced in 1994, v1.0.4, for stacks protection. Since
that, people found better ways to protect stacks, and now the macro is
only used by i915 selftests. Move it to a local header and drop from the
kernel.h.

Patch series "kho: clean up page initialization logic", v2.
This series simplifies the page initialization logic in
kho_restore_page(). It was originally only a single patch [0], but on
Pasha's suggestion, I added another patch to use unsigned long for
nr_pages.
Technically speaking, the patches aren't related and can be applied
independently, but bundling them together since patch 2 relies on 1 and it
is easier to manage them this way.
This patch (of 2):
With 4k pages, a 32-bit nr_pages can span up to 16 TiB. While it is a
lot, there exist systems with terabytes of RAM. gup is also moving to
using long for nr_pages. Use unsigned long and make KHO future-proof.

Add a new Kconfig symbol to make CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC more useful on those
architectures which do not align dynamic allocations to 8-byte boundaries.
Without this, CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC produces excessive WARN splats.

Some recent commits incorrectly assumed 4-byte alignment of locks. That
assumption fails on Linux/m68k (and, interestingly, would have failed on
Linux/cris also). The jump label implementation makes a similar alignment
assumption.
The expectation that atomic_t and atomic64_t variables will be naturally
aligned seems reasonable, as indeed they are on 64-bit architectures. But
atomic64_t isn't naturally aligned on csky, m68k, microblaze, nios2,
openrisc and sh. Neither atomic_t nor atomic64_t are naturally aligned on
m68k.
This patch brings a little uniformity by specifying natural alignment for
atomic types. One benefit is that atomic64_t variables do not get split
across a page boundary. The cost is that some structs grow which leads to
cache misses and wasted memory.
See also, commit bbf2a330d92c ("x86: atomic64: The atomic64_t data type
should be 8 bytes aligned on 32-bit too").

Patch series "Align atomic storage", v7.
This series adds the __aligned attribute to atomic_t and atomic64_t
definitions in include/linux and include/asm-generic (respectively) to get
natural alignment of both types on csky, m68k, microblaze, nios2, openrisc
and sh.
This series also adds Kconfig options to enable a new run-time warning to
help reveal misaligned atomic accesses on platforms which don't trap that.
The performance impact is expected to vary across platforms and workloads.
The measurements I made on m68k show that some workloads run faster and
others slower.
This patch (of 4):
Align bpf_res_spin_lock to avoid a BUILD_BUG_ON() when the alignment
changes, as it will do on m68k when, in a subsequent patch, the minimum
alignment of the atomic_t member of struct rqspinlock gets increased from
2 to 4. Drop the BUILD_BUG_ON() as it becomes redundant.

Follow an observation that (n ^ (n - 1)) will only ever retain the most
significant bit set in the word operated on if that is the only bit set in
the first place, and use it to determine whether a number is a whole power
of 2, avoiding the need for an explicit check for nonzero.
This reduces the sequence produced to 3 instructions only across Alpha,
MIPS, and RISC-V targets, down from 4, 5, and 4 respectively, removing a
branch in the two latter cases. And it's 5 instructions on POWER and
x86-64 vs 8 and 9 respectively. There are no branches now emitted here
for targets that have a suitable conditional set operation, although an
inline expansion will often end with one, depending on what code a call to
this function is used in.
Credit goes to GCC authors for coming up with this optimisation used as
the fallback for (__builtin_popcountl(n) == 1), equivalent to this code,
for targets where the hardware population count operation is considered
expensive.

The `struct kho_vmalloc` defines the in-memory layout for preserving
vmalloc regions across kexec. This layout is a contract between kernels
and part of the KHO ABI.
To reflect this relationship, the related structs and helper macros are
relocated to the ABI header, `include/linux/kho/abi/kexec_handover.h`.
This move places the structure's definition under the protection of the
KHO_FDT_COMPATIBLE version string.
The structure and its components are now also documented within the ABI
header to describe the contract and prevent ABI breaks.

Introduce the `include/linux/kho/abi/kexec_handover.h` header file, which
defines the stable ABI for the KHO mechanism. This header specifies how
preserved data is passed between kernels using an FDT.
The ABI contract includes the FDT structure, node properties, and the
"kho-v1" compatible string. By centralizing these definitions, this
header serves as the foundational agreement for inter-kernel communication
of preserved states, ensuring forward compatibility and preventing
misinterpretation of data across kexec transitions.
Since the ABI definitions are now centralized in the header files, the
YAML files that previously described the FDT interfaces are redundant.
These redundant files have therefore been removed.

Patch series "Address page fault in ima_restore_measurement_list()", v3.
When the second-stage kernel is booted via kexec with a limiting command
line such as "mem=<size>" we observe a pafe fault that happens.
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffff97793ff47000
RIP: ima_restore_measurement_list+0xdc/0x45a
#PF: error_code(0x0000) not-present page
This happens on x86_64 only, as this is already fixed in aarch64 in
commit: cbf9c4b9617b ("of: check previous kernel's ima-kexec-buffer
against memory bounds")
This patch (of 3):
When the second-stage kernel is booted with a limiting command line (e.g.
"mem=<size>"), the IMA measurement buffer handed over from the previous
kernel may fall outside the addressable RAM of the new kernel. Accessing
such a buffer can fault during early restore.
Introduce a small generic helper, ima_validate_range(), which verifies
that a physical [start, end] range for the previous-kernel IMA buffer lies
within addressable memory:
- On x86, use pfn_range_is_mapped().
- On OF based architectures, use page_is_ram().

Provide a variant of DEFINE_RES that takes 0 arguments to initialize an
"unset" resource descriptor.
This should be used for the improper case of
struct resource res = {};
where DEFINE_RES() should be used.
With this new helper variant, it would result in:
struct resource res = DEFINE_RES();
instead of having to define the full 3 arguments:
struct resource res = DEFINE_RES(0, 0, IORESOURCE_UNSET);
DEFINE_RES() with no args, will set the flags to IORESOURCE_UNSET
signaling the resource descriptor is UNSET and doesn't reflect an actual
resource currently.

Reinitialize metadata for large zone device private folios in
zone_device_page_init prior to creating a higher-order zone device private
folio. This step is necessary when the folio's order changes dynamically
between zone_device_page_init calls to avoid building a corrupt folio. As
part of the metadata reinitialization, the dev_pagemap must be passed in
from the caller because the pgmap stored in the folio page may have been
overwritten with a compound head.
Without this fix, individual pages could have invalid pgmap fields and
flags (with PG_locked being notably problematic) due to prior different
order allocations, which can, and will, result in kernel crashes.

Patch series "mm: memfd_luo hotfixes".
This series contains a couple of fixes for memfd preservation using LUO.
This patch (of 3):
The Live Update Orchestrator's (LUO) memfd preservation works by
preserving all the folios of a memfd, re-creating an empty memfd on the
next boot, and then inserting back the preserved folios.
Currently it creates the file by directly calling shmem_file_setup().
This leaves out other work done by alloc_file() like setting up the file
mode, flags, or calling the security hooks.
Export alloc_file() to let memfd_luo use it. Rename it to
memfd_alloc_file() since it is no longer private and thus needs a
subsystem prefix.

bpf_address_lookup() has been used only in kallsyms_lookup_buildid(). It
was supposed to set @modname and @modbuildid when the symbol was in a
module.
But it always just cleared @modname because BPF symbols were never in a
module. And it did not clear @modbuildid because the pointer was not
passed.
The wrapper is no longer needed. Both @modname and @modbuildid are now
always initialized to NULL in kallsyms_lookup_buildid().
Remove the wrapper and rename __bpf_address_lookup() to
bpf_address_lookup() because this variant is used everywhere.

Patch series "Add ARRAY_END(), and use it to fix off-by-one bugs", v6.
Add ARRAY_END(), and use it to fix off-by-one bugs
ARRAY_END() is a macro to calculate a pointer to one past the last element
of an array argument. This is a very common pointer, which is used to
iterate over all elements of an array:
for (T *p = a; p < ARRAY_END(a); p++)
...
Of course, this pointer should never be dereferenced. A pointer one past
the last element of an array should not be dereferenced; it's perfectly
fine to hold such a pointer --and a good thing to do--, but the only thing
it should be used for is comparing it with other pointers derived from the
same array.
Due to how special these pointers are, it would be good to use consistent
naming. It's common to name such a pointer 'end' --in fact, we have many
such cases in the kernel--. C++ even standardized this name with
std::end(). Let's try naming such pointers 'end', and try also avoid
using 'end' for pointers that are not the result of ARRAY_END().
It has been incorrectly suggested that these pointers are dangerous, and
that they should never be used, suggesting to use something like
#define ARRAY_LAST(a) ((a) + ARRAY_SIZE(a) - 1)
for (T *p = a; p <= ARRAY_LAST(a); p++)
...
This is bogus, as it doesn't scale down to arrays of 0 elements. In the
case of an array of 0 elements, ARRAY_LAST() would underflow the pointer,
which not only it can't be dereferenced, it can't even be held (it
produces Undefined Behavior). That would be a footgun. Such arrays don't
exist per the ISO C standard; however, GCC supports them as an extension
(with partial support, though; GCC has a few bugs which need to be fixed).
This patch set fixes a few places where it was intended to use the array
end (that is, one past the last element), but accidentally a pointer to
the last element was used instead, thus wasting one byte.
It also replaces other places where the array end was correctly calculated
with ARRAY_SIZE(), by using the simpler ARRAY_END().
Also, there was one drivers/ file that already defined this macro. We
remove that definition, to not conflict with this one.
This patch (of 4):
ARRAY_END() returns a pointer one past the end of the last element in the
array argument. This pointer is useful for iterating over the elements of
an array:
for (T *p = a, p < ARRAY_END(a); p++)

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).

Commit ab04b530e7e8 ("mm: introduce copy-on-fork VMAs and make
VM_MAYBE_GUARD one") aggregates flags checks in vma_needs_copy(),
including VM_UFFD_WP.
However in doing so, it incorrectly performed this check against src_vma.
This check was done on the assumption that all relevant flags are copied
upon fork.
However the userfaultfd logic is very innovative in that it implements
custom logic on fork in dup_userfaultfd(), including a rather well hidden
case where lacking UFFD_FEATURE_EVENT_FORK causes VM_UFFD_WP to not be
propagated to the destination VMA.
And indeed, vma_needs_copy(), prior to this patch, did check this property
on dst_vma, not src_vma.
Since all the other relevant flags are copied on fork, we can simply fix
this by checking against dst_vma.
While we're here, we fix a comment against VM_COPY_ON_FORK (noting that it
did indeed already reference dst_vma) to make it abundantly clear that we
must check against the destination VMA.

mmu_gather
As reported, ever since commit 1013af4f585f ("mm/hugetlb: fix
huge_pmd_unshare() vs GUP-fast race") we can end up in some situations
where we perform so many IPI broadcasts when unsharing hugetlb PMD page
tables that it severely regresses some workloads.
In particular, when we fork()+exit(), or when we munmap() a large
area backed by many shared PMD tables, we perform one IPI broadcast per
unshared PMD table.
There are two optimizations to be had:
(1) When we process (unshare) multiple such PMD tables, such as during
exit(), it is sufficient to send a single IPI broadcast (as long as
we respect locking rules) instead of one per PMD table.
Locking prevents that any of these PMD tables could get reused before
we drop the lock.
(2) When we are not the last sharer (> 2 users including us), there is
no need to send the IPI broadcast. The shared PMD tables cannot
become exclusive (fully unshared) before an IPI will be broadcasted
by the last sharer.
Concurrent GUP-fast could walk into a PMD table just before we
unshared it. It could then succeed in grabbing a page from the
shared page table even after munmap() etc succeeded (and supressed
an IPI). But there is not difference compared to GUP-fast just
sleeping for a while after grabbing the page and re-enabling IRQs.
Most importantly, GUP-fast will never walk into page tables that are
no-longer shared, because the last sharer will issue an IPI
broadcast.
(if ever required, checking whether the PUD changed in GUP-fast
after grabbing the page like we do in the PTE case could handle
this)
So let's rework PMD sharing TLB flushing + IPI sync to use the mmu_gather
infrastructure so we can implement these optimizations and demystify the
code at least a bit. Extend the mmu_gather infrastructure to be able to
deal with our special hugetlb PMD table sharing implementation.
To make initialization of the mmu_gather easier when working on a single
VMA (in particular, when dealing with hugetlb), provide
tlb_gather_mmu_vma().
We'll consolidate the handling for (full) unsharing of PMD tables in
tlb_unshare_pmd_ptdesc() and tlb_flush_unshared_tables(), and track
in "struct mmu_gather" whether we had (full) unsharing of PMD tables.
Because locking is very special (concurrent unsharing+reuse must be
prevented), we disallow deferring flushing to tlb_finish_mmu() and instead
require an explicit earlier call to tlb_flush_unshared_tables().
From hugetlb code, we call huge_pmd_unshare_flush() where we make sure
that the expected lock protecting us from concurrent unsharing+reuse is
still held.
Check with a VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() in tlb_finish_mmu() that
tlb_flush_unshared_tables() was properly called earlier.
Document it all properly.
Notes about tlb_remove_table_sync_one() interaction with unsharing:
There are two fairly tricky things:
(1) tlb_remove_table_sync_one() is a NOP on architectures without
CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE.
Here, the assumption is that the previous TLB flush would send an
IPI to all relevant CPUs. Careful: some architectures like x86 only
send IPIs to all relevant CPUs when tlb->freed_tables is set.
The relevant architectures should be selecting
MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE, but x86 might not do that in stable
kernels and it might have been problematic before this patch.
Also, the arch flushing behavior (independent of IPIs) is different
when tlb->freed_tables is set. Do we have to enlighten them to also
take care of tlb->unshared_tables? So far we didn't care, so
hopefully we are fine. Of course, we could be setting
tlb->freed_tables as well, but that might then unnecessarily flush
too much, because the semantics of tlb->freed_tables are a bit
fuzzy.
This patch changes nothing in this regard.
(2) tlb_remove_table_sync_one() is not a NOP on architectures with
CONFIG_MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE that actually don't need a sync.
Take x86 as an example: in the common case (!pv, !X86_FEATURE_INVLPGB)
we still issue IPIs during TLB flushes and don't actually need the
second tlb_remove_table_sync_one().
This optimized can be implemented on top of this, by checking e.g., in
tlb_remove_table_sync_one() whether we really need IPIs. But as
described in (1), it really must honor tlb->freed_tables then to
send IPIs to all relevant CPUs.
Notes on TLB flushing changes:
(1) Flushing for non-shared PMD tables
We're converting from flush_hugetlb_tlb_range() to
tlb_remove_huge_tlb_entry(). Given that we properly initialize the
MMU gather in tlb_gather_mmu_vma() to be hugetlb aware, similar to
__unmap_hugepage_range(), that should be fine.
(2) Flushing for shared PMD tables
We're converting from various things (flush_hugetlb_tlb_range(),
tlb_flush_pmd_range(), flush_tlb_range()) to tlb_flush_pmd_range().
tlb_flush_pmd_range() achieves the same that
tlb_remove_huge_tlb_entry() would achieve in these scenarios.
Note that tlb_remove_huge_tlb_entry() also calls
__tlb_remove_tlb_entry(), however that is only implemented on
powerpc, which does not support PMD table sharing.
Similar to (1), tlb_gather_mmu_vma() should make sure that TLB
flushing keeps on working as expected.
Further, note that the ptdesc_pmd_pts_dec() in huge_pmd_share() is not a
concern, as we are holding the i_mmap_lock the whole time, preventing
concurrent unsharing. That ptdesc_pmd_pts_dec() usage will be removed
separately as a cleanup later.
There are plenty more cleanups to be had, but they have to wait until
this is fixed.

Patch series "mm/hugetlb: fixes for PMD table sharing (incl. using
mmu_gather)", v3.
One functional fix, one performance regression fix, and two related
comment fixes.
I cleaned up my prototype I recently shared [1] for the performance fix,
deferring most of the cleanups I had in the prototype to a later point.
While doing that I identified the other things.
The goal of this patch set is to be backported to stable trees "fairly"
easily. At least patch #1 and #4.
Patch #1 fixes hugetlb_pmd_shared() not detecting any sharing
Patch #2 + #3 are simple comment fixes that patch #4 interacts with.
Patch #4 is a fix for the reported performance regression due to excessive
IPI broadcasts during fork()+exit().
The last patch is all about TLB flushes, IPIs and mmu_gather.
Read: complicated
There are plenty of cleanups in the future to be had + one reasonable
optimization on x86. But that's all out of scope for this series.
Runtime tested, with a focus on fixing the performance regression using
the original reproducer [2] on x86.
This patch (of 4):
We switched from (wrongly) using the page count to an independent shared
count. Now, shared page tables have a refcount of 1 (excluding
speculative references) and instead use ptdesc->pt_share_count to identify
sharing.
We didn't convert hugetlb_pmd_shared(), so right now, we would never
detect a shared PMD table as such, because sharing/unsharing no longer
touches the refcount of a PMD table.
Page migration, like mbind() or migrate_pages() would allow for migrating
folios mapped into such shared PMD tables, even though the folios are not
exclusive. In smaps we would account them as "private" although they are
"shared", and we would be wrongly setting the PM_MMAP_EXCLUSIVE in the
pagemap interface.

Above the while() loop in wait_sb_inodes(), we document that we must wait
for all pages under writeback for data integrity. Consequently, if a
mapping, like fuse, traditionally does not have data integrity semantics,
there is no need to wait at all; we can simply skip these inodes.
This restores fuse back to prior behavior where syncs are no-ops. This
fixes a user regression where if a system is running a faulty fuse server
that does not reply to issued write requests, this causes wait_sb_inodes()
to wait forever.

Both init_mm and efi_mm static definitions need to make room for the 2
mm_cid cpumasks.
This fixes possible out-of-bounds accesses to init_mm and efi_mm.
Add a space between # and define for the mm_alloc_cid() definition to make
it consistent with the coding style used in the rest of this header file.

The cpu_bitmap flexible array now contains more than just the cpu_bitmap.
In preparation for changing the static mm_struct definitions to cover for
the additional space required, change the cpu_bitmap type from "unsigned
long" to "char", require an unsigned long alignment of the flexible array,
and rename the field from "cpu_bitmap" to "flexible_array".
Introduce the MM_STRUCT_FLEXIBLE_ARRAY_INIT macro to statically initialize
the flexible array. This covers the init_mm and efi_mm static
definitions.
This is a preparation step for fixing the missing mm_cid size for static
mm_struct definitions.
