Since commit aa06a9bd8533 ("ia64: fix clock_getres(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) to
report ITC frequency"), gcc 10.1.0 fails to build ia64 with the gnomic:
| ../arch/ia64/kernel/sys_ia64.c: In function 'ia64_clock_getres':
| ../arch/ia64/kernel/sys_ia64.c:189:3: error: a label can only be part of a statement and a declaration is not a statement
| 189 | s64 tick_ns = DIV_ROUND_UP(NSEC_PER_SEC, local_cpu_data->itc_freq);
This line appears immediately after a case label in a switch.
Move the declarations out of the case, to the top of the function.

A subsequent fix for arm64 will use this parameter to parse the vma
information from the snapshot created by dump_vma_snapshot() rather than
traversing the vma list without the mmap_lock.

Pull x86 core updates from Borislav Petkov:
- Add the call depth tracking mitigation for Retbleed which has been
long in the making. It is a lighterweight software-only fix for
Skylake-based cores where enabling IBRS is a big hammer and causes a
significant performance impact.
What it basically does is, it aligns all kernel functions to 16 bytes
boundary and adds a 16-byte padding before the function, objtool
collects all functions' locations and when the mitigation gets
applied, it patches a call accounting thunk which is used to track
the call depth of the stack at any time.
When that call depth reaches a magical, microarchitecture-specific
value for the Return Stack Buffer, the code stuffs that RSB and
avoids its underflow which could otherwise lead to the Intel variant
of Retbleed.
This software-only solution brings a lot of the lost performance
back, as benchmarks suggest:

That page above also contains a lot more detailed explanation of the
whole mechanism
- Implement a new control flow integrity scheme called FineIBT which is
based on the software kCFI implementation and uses hardware IBT
support where present to annotate and track indirect branches using a
hash to validate them

For bus-based driver, device removal is implemented as:
1 device_remove()->
2 bus->remove()->
3 driver->remove()
Driver core needs no inform from callee(bus driver) about the
result of remove callback. In that case, commit fc7a6209d571
("bus: Make remove callback return void") forces bus_type::remove
be void-returned.
Now we have the situation that both 1 & 2 of calling chain are
void-returned, so it does not make much sense for 3(driver->remove)
to return non-void to its caller.
So the basic idea behind this change is making remove() callback of
any bus-based driver to be void-returned.
This change, for itself, is for device drivers based on acpi-bus.

Most architectures (except arm64/x86/sparc) simply return 1 for
kern_addr_valid(), which is only used in read_kcore(), and it calls
copy_from_kernel_nofault() which could check whether the address is a
valid kernel address. So as there is no need for kern_addr_valid(), let's
remove it.

During discussions of this series [1], it was suggested that hugetlb
handling code in follow_page_mask could be simplified. At the beginning
of follow_page_mask, there currently is a call to follow_huge_addr which
'may' handle hugetlb pages. ia64 is the only architecture which provides
a follow_huge_addr routine that does not return error. Instead, at each
level of the page table a check is made for a hugetlb entry. If a hugetlb
entry is found, a call to a routine associated with that entry is made.
Currently, there are two checks for hugetlb entries at each page table
level. The first check is of the form:
if (p?d_huge())
page = follow_huge_p?d();
the second check is of the form:
if (is_hugepd())
page = follow_huge_pd().
We can replace these checks, as well as the special handling routines such
as follow_huge_p?d() and follow_huge_pd() with a single routine to handle
hugetlb vmas.
A new routine hugetlb_follow_page_mask is called for hugetlb vmas at the
beginning of follow_page_mask. hugetlb_follow_page_mask will use the
existing routine huge_pte_offset to walk page tables looking for hugetlb
entries. huge_pte_offset can be overwritten by architectures, and already
handles special cases such as hugepd entries.

Generic function-alignment infrastructure.
Architectures can select FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT_xxB symbols; the
FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT symbol is then set to the largest such selected
size, 0 otherwise.
From this the -falign-functions compiler argument and __ALIGN macro
are set.
This incorporates the DEBUG_FORCE_FUNCTION_ALIGN_64B knob and future
alignment requirements for x86_64 (later in this series) into a single
place.
NOTE: also removes the 0x90 filler byte from the generic __ALIGN
primitive, that value makes no sense outside of x86.
NOTE: .balign 0 reverts to a no-op.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in
linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).
- Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based
tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock
contention.
Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.
Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up.
- Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses
clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down
to the single bit level.
KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones.
- Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of
memory into THPs.
- Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to
support file/shmem-backed pages.
- userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen

- Remove potentially incomplete targets when Kbuid is interrupted by
SIGINT etc in case GNU Make may miss to do that when stderr is piped
to another program.
- Rewrite the single target build so it works more correctly.
- Fix rpm-pkg builds with V=1.
- List top-level subdirectories in ./Kbuild.
- Ignore auto-generated __kstrtab_* and __kstrtabns_* symbols in
kallsyms.
- Avoid two different modules in lib/zstd/ having shared code, which
potentially causes building the common code as build-in and modular
back-and-forth.
- Unify two modpost invocations to optimize the build process.
- Remove head-y syntax in favor of linker scripts for placing
particular sections in the head of vmlinux.
- Bump the minimal GNU Make version to 3.82.
- Clean up misc Makefiles and scripts.

this work done
- tty serial transmit cleanups in various drivers in preparation for
more cleanup and unification in future releases (that work was not
ready for this release)

Kbuild puts the objects listed in head-y at the head of vmlinux.
Conventionally, we do this for head*.S, which contains the kernel entry
point.
A counter approach is to control the section order by the linker script.
Actually, the code marked as __HEAD goes into the ".head.text" section,
which is placed before the normal ".text" section.
I do not know if both of them are needed. From the build system
perspective, head-y is not mandatory. If you can achieve the proper code
placement by the linker script only, it would be cleaner.
I collected the current head-y objects into head-object-list.txt. It is
a whitelist. My hope is it will be reduced in the long run.

The objects placed at the head of vmlinux need special treatments:
- arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile adds them to head-y in order to place
them before other archives in the linker command line.
- arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/Makefile adds them to extra-y instead of
obj-y to avoid them going into built-in.a.
This commit gets rid of the latter.
Create vmlinux.a to collect all the objects that are unconditionally
linked to vmlinux. The objects listed in head-y are moved to the head
of vmlinux.a by using 'ar m'.
With this, arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/Makefile can consistently use obj-y
for builtin objects.
There is no *.o that is directly linked to vmlinux. Drop unneeded code
in scripts/clang-tools/gen_compile_commands.py.
$(AR) mPi needs 'T' to workaround the llvm-ar bug. The fix was suggested
by Nathan Chancellor [1].

clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &tp) is very precise on ia64 as it uses ITC
(similar to rdtsc on x86). It's not quite a hrtimer as it is a few times
slower than 1ns. Usually 2-3ns.
clock_getres(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &res) never reflected that fact and reported
0.04s precision (1/HZ value).
In https://bugs.gentoo.org/596382 gstreamer's test suite failed loudly
when it noticed precision discrepancy.
Before the change:
clock_getres(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &res) reported 250Hz precision.
After the change:
clock_getres(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &res) reports ITC (400Mhz) precision.
The patch is based on matoro's fix. I added a bit of explanation why we
need to special-case arch-specific clock_getres().

All non-UAPI asm/termios.h consist of include of UAPI counterpart
and, possibly, include of linux/uaccess.h
The latter can't be simply removed, even though nothing in
linux/termios.h doesn't depend upon it anymore - there are several
places that rely upon that indirect chain of includes to pull
linux/uaccess.h. So the include needs to be lifted out of there -
we lift into tty_driver.h, serdev.h and places that pull asm/termios.h,
but none of
* linux/uaccess.h (obvious)
* net/sock.h (pulls uaccess.h)
* linux/{tty,tty_driver,serdev}.h (tty.h pulls tty_driver.h)
That leaves us just with the include of UAPI asm/termios.h, which is
what <asm/termios.h> will resolve to if we simply remove non-UAPI header.

Pull efivars sysfs interface removal from Ard Biesheuvel:
"Remove the obsolete 'efivars' sysfs based interface to the EFI
variable store, now that all users have moved to the efivarfs pseudo
file system, which was created ~10 years ago to address some
fundamental shortcomings in the sysfs based driver.
Move the 'business logic' related to which EFI variables are important
and may affect the boot flow from the efivars support layer into the
efivarfs pseudo file system, so it is no longer exposed to other parts
of the kernel"

The setup_profiling_timer() is mostly un-implemented by many
architectures. In many places it isn't guarded by CONFIG_PROFILE which is
needed for it to be used. Make it a weak symbol in kernel/profile.c and
remove the 'return -EINVAL' implementations from the kenrel.
There are a couple of architectures which do return 0 from the
setup_profiling_timer() function but they don't seem to do anything else
with it. To keep the /proc compatibility for now, leave these for a
future update or removal.
On ARM, this fixes the following sparse warning:
arch/arm/kernel/smp.c:793:5: warning: symbol 'setup_profiling_timer' was not declared. Should it be static?

The isa_dma_bridge_buggy symbol is only used for x86_32, and only x86_32
platforms or quirks ever set it.
Add a new linux/isa-dma.h header that #defines isa_dma_bridge_buggy to 0
except on x86_32, where we keep it as a variable, and remove all the arch-

pci_get_legacy_ide_irq() is only used on platforms that support PNP, so
many architectures define it but never use it. Replace uses of it with
ATA_PRIMARY_IRQ() and ATA_SECONDARY_IRQ(), which provide the same
functionality.
Since pci_get_legacy_ide_irq() is no longer used, remove all the
architecture-specific definitions of it as well as asm-generic/pci.h, which
only provides pci_get_legacy_ide_irq()

Now all the platforms enable ARCH_HAS_GET_PAGE_PROT. They define and
export own vm_get_page_prot() whether custom or standard
DECLARE_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT. Hence there is no need for default generic

ARCH_HAS_GET_PAGE_PROT mechanism.

Some architectures and irqchip drivers modify the cpumask returned by
irq_data_get_affinity_mask, usually by copying in to it. This is
problematic for uniprocessor configurations, where the affinity mask
should be constant, as it is known at compile time.
Add and use a setter for the affinity mask, following the pattern of
irq_data_update_effective_affinity. This allows the getter function to
return a const cpumask pointer.

Currently, there is a mess with the prototypes of the non-atomic
bitops across the different architectures:
ret bool, int, unsigned long
nr int, long, unsigned int, unsigned long
addr volatile unsigned long *, volatile void *
Thankfully, it doesn't provoke any bugs, but can sometimes make
the compiler angry when it's not handy at all.
Adjust all the prototypes to the following standard:
ret bool retval can be only 0 or 1
nr unsigned long native; signed makes no sense
addr volatile unsigned long * bitmaps are arrays of ulongs
Next, some architectures don't define 'arch_' versions as they don't
support instrumentation, others do. To make sure there is always the
same set of callables present and to ease any potential future
changes, make them all follow the rule:
* architecture-specific files define only 'arch_' versions;
* non-prefixed versions can be defined only in asm-generic files;
and place the non-prefixed definitions into a new file in
asm-generic to be included by non-instrumented architectures.
Finally, add some static assertions in order to prevent people from
making a mess in this room again.
I also used the %__always_inline attribute consistently, so that
they always get resolved to the actual operations.

test_bit(), as any other bitmap op, takes `unsigned long *` as a
second argument (pointer to the actual bitmap), as any bitmap
itself is an array of unsigned longs. However, the ia64_get_irr()
code passes a ref to `u64` as a second argument.
This works with the ia64 bitops implementation due to that they
have `void *` as the second argument and then cast it later on.
This works with the bitmap API itself due to that `unsigned long`
has the same size on ia64 as `u64` (`unsigned long long`), but
from the compiler PoV those two are different.
Define @irr as `unsigned long` to fix that. That implies no
functional changes. Has been hidden for 16 years!

All architecture-independent users of virt_to_bus() and bus_to_virt()
have been fixed to use the dma mapping interfaces or have been
removed now. This means the definitions on most architectures, and the
CONFIG_VIRT_TO_BUS symbol are now obsolete and can be removed.
The only exceptions to this are a few network and scsi drivers for m68k
Amiga and VME machines and ppc32 Macintosh. These drivers work correctly
with the old interfaces and are probably not worth changing.
On alpha and parisc, virt_to_bus() were still used in asm/floppy.h.
alpha can use isa_virt_to_bus() like x86 does, and parisc can just
open-code the virt_to_phys() here, as this is architecture specific
code.
I tried updating the bus-virt-phys-mapping.rst documentation, which
started as an email from Linus to explain some details of the Linux-2.0
driver interfaces. The bits about virt_to_bus() were declared obsolete
backin 2000, and the rest is not all that relevant any more, so in the
end I just decided to remove the file completely.

Commit 5d9db883761a ("efi: Add support for a UEFI variable filesystem")
dated Oct 5, 2012, introduced a new efivarfs pseudo-filesystem to
replace the efivars sysfs interface that was used up to that point to
expose EFI variables to user space.
The main problem with the sysfs interface was that it only supported up
to 1024 bytes of payload per file, whereas the underlying variables
themselves are only bounded by a platform specific per-variable and
global limit that is typically much higher than 1024 bytes.
The deprecated sysfs interface is only enabled on x86 and Itanium, other
EFI enabled architectures only support the efivarfs pseudo-filesystem.
So let's finally rip off the band aid, and drop the old interface
entirely. This will make it easier to refactor and clean up the
underlying infrastructure that is shared between efivars, efivarfs and
efi-pstore, and is long overdue for a makeover.

On IA64, new sparse's warnings where issued after fixing some __rcu
annotations in kernel/bpf/.
These new warnings are false positives and appear on IA64 because on this
architecture, the macros for cmpxchg() and xchg() make casts that ignore
sparse annotations.
This patch contains the minimal patch to fix this issue: adding a missing
cast and some missing '__force'.
