Add fn and fn_arg members into struct kernel_clone_args and test for
them in copy_thread (instead of testing for PF_KTHREAD | PF_IO_WORKER).
This allows any task that wants to be a user space task that only runs
in kernel mode to use this functionality.
The code on x86 is an exception and still retains a PF_KTHREAD test
because x86 unlikely everything else handles kthreads slightly
differently than user space tasks that start with a function.
The functions that created tasks that start with a function
have been updated to set ".fn" and ".fn_arg" instead of
".stack" and ".stack_size". These functions are fork_idle(),
create_io_thread(), kernel_thread(), and user_mode_thread().

With io_uring we have started supporting tasks that are for most
purposes user space tasks that exclusively run code in kernel mode.
The kernel task that exec's init and tasks that exec user mode
helpers are also user mode tasks that just run kernel code
until they call kernel execve.
Pass kernel_clone_args into copy_thread so these oddball
tasks can be supported more cleanly and easily.
v2: Fix spelling of kenrel_clone_args on h8300

When fast_store_prohibited needs to go to the C-level exception handler
it leaves TLB entry that caused page fault in the TLB. If the faulting
task gets switched to a different CPU and completes page table update
there the TLB entry will get out of sync with the page table which may
cause a livelock on access to that page.
Invalidate faulting TLB entry on a slow path exit from the
fast_store_prohibited.

Current coprocessor support on xtensa only works correctly on
uniprocessor configurations. Make it work on SMP too and keep it lazy.
Make coprocessor_owner array per-CPU and move it to struct exc_table for
easy access from the fast_coprocessor exception handler. Allow task to
have live coprocessors only on single CPU, record this CPU number in the
struct thread_info::cp_owner_cpu. Change struct thread_info::cpenable
meaning to be 'coprocessors live on cp_owner_cpu'.
Introduce C-level coprocessor exception handler that flushes and
releases live coprocessors of the task taking 'coprocessor disabled'
exception and call it from the fast_coprocessor handler when the task
has live coprocessors on other CPU.
Make coprocessor_flush_all and coprocessor_release_all work correctly
when called from any CPU by sending IPI to the cp_owner_cpu. Add
function coprocessor_flush_release_all to do flush followed by release
atomically. Add function local_coprocessors_flush_release_all to flush
and release all coprocessors on the local CPU and use it to flush
coprocessor contexts from the CPU that goes offline.

In order to let drivers use xtensa coprocessors on behalf of the calling
process the kernel must handle coprocessor exceptions from the kernel
mode the same way as from the user mode.
This is not sufficient to allow using coprocessors transparently in IRQ
or softirq context. Should such users exist they must be aware of the
context and do the right thing, e.g. preserve the coprocessor state and
resore it after use.

Many xtensa CPU cores without full MMU still have memory protection
features capable of raising exceptions for invalid instruction
fetches/data access. Allow handling such exceptions. This improves
behavior of processes that pass invalid memory pointers to syscalls in
noMMU configs: in case of exception the kernel instead of killing the
process is now able to return -EINVAL from a syscall.
Introduce CONFIG_PFAULT that controls whether protection fault code is
enabled and register handlers for common memory protection exceptions
when it is enabled.

Fast coprocessor exception handler saves a3..a6, but coprocessor context
load/store code uses a4..a7 as temporaries, potentially clobbering a7.
'Potentially' because coprocessor state load/store macros may not use

There is a deadlock in rs_close(), which is shown
below:
(Thread 1) | (Thread 2)
| rs_open()
rs_close() | mod_timer()
spin_lock_bh() //(1) | (wait a time)
... | rs_poll()
del_timer_sync() | spin_lock() //(2)
(wait timer to stop) | ...
We hold timer_lock in position (1) of thread 1 and
use del_timer_sync() to wait timer to stop, but timer handler
also need timer_lock in position (2) of thread 2.
As a result, rs_close() will block forever.
This patch deletes the redundant timer_lock in order to
prevent the deadlock. Because there is no race condition
between rs_close, rs_open and rs_poll.

MADV_DONTNEED historically rejects mlocked ranges, but with MLOCK_ONFAULT
and MCL_ONFAULT allowing to mlock without populating, there are valid use
cases for depopulating locked ranges as well.
Users mlock memory to protect secrets. There are allocators for secure
buffers that want in-use memory generally mlocked, but cleared and
invalidated memory to give up the physical pages. This could be done with
explicit munlock -> mlock calls on free -> alloc of course, but that adds
two unnecessary syscalls, heavy mmap_sem write locks, vma splits and
re-merges - only to get rid of the backing pages.
Users also mlockall(MCL_ONFAULT) to suppress sustained paging, but are
okay with on-demand initial population. It seems valid to selectively
free some memory during the lifetime of such a process, without having to
mess with its overall policy.
Why add a separate flag? Isn't this a pretty niche usecase?
- MADV_DONTNEED has been bailing on locked vmas forever. It's at least
conceivable that someone, somewhere is relying on mlock to protect
data from perhaps broader invalidation calls. Changing this behavior
now could lead to quiet data corruption.
- It also clarifies expectations around MADV_FREE and maybe
MADV_REMOVE. It avoids the situation where one quietly behaves
different than the others. MADV_FREE_LOCKED can be added later.
- The combination of mlock() and madvise() in the first place is
probably niche. But where it happens, I'd say that dropping pages
from a locked region once they don't contain secrets or won't page
anymore is much saner than relying on mlock to protect memory from
speculative or errant invalidation calls. It's just that we can't
change the default behavior because of the two previous points.
Given that, an explicit new flag seems to make the most sense.

- Switch netdev error counters from an atomic to dynamically
allocated per-CPU counters.
- Rework a few preempt_disable(), local_irq_save() and busy waiting
sections problematic on PREEMPT_RT.
- Extend the ref_tracker to allow catching use-after-free bugs.
BPF
---
- Introduce "packing allocator" for BPF JIT images. JITed code is
marked read only, and used to be allocated at page granularity.
Custom allocator allows for more efficient memory use, lower iTLB
pressure and prevents identity mapping huge pages from getting
split.
- Make use of BTF type annotations (e.g. __user, __percpu) to enforce
the correct probe read access method, add appropriate helpers.
- Convert the BPF preload to use light skeleton and drop the
user-mode-driver dependency.
- Allow XDP BPF_PROG_RUN test infra to send real packets, enabling
its use as a packet generator.
- Allow local storage memory to be allocated with GFP_KERNEL if
called from a hook allowed to sleep.
- Introduce fprobe (multi kprobe) to speed up mass attachment (arch
bits to come later).
- Add unstable conntrack lookup helpers for BPF by using the BPF
kfunc infra.
- Allow cgroup BPF progs to return custom errors to user space.
- Add support for AF_UNIX iterator batching.
- Allow iterator programs to use sleepable helpers.
- Support JIT of add, and, or, xor and xchg atomic ops on arm64.
- Add BTFGen support to bpftool which allows to use CO-RE in kernels
without BTF info.
- Large number of libbpf API improvements, cleanups and deprecations.
Protocols
---------
- Micro-optimize UDPv6 Tx, gaining up to 5% in test on dummy netdev.
- Adjust TSO packet sizes based on min_rtt, allowing very low latency
links (data centers) to always send full-sized TSO super-frames.
- Make IPv6 flow label changes (AKA hash rethink) more configurable,
via sysctl and setsockopt. Distinguish between server and client
behavior.
- VxLAN support to "collect metadata" devices to terminate only
configured VNIs. This is similar to VLAN filtering in the bridge.
- Support inserting IPv6 IOAM information to a fraction of frames.
- Add protocol attribute to IP addresses to allow identifying where
given address comes from (kernel-generated, DHCP etc.)
- Support setting socket and IPv6 options via cmsg on ping6 sockets.
- Reject mis-use of ECN bits in IP headers as part of DSCP/TOS.
Define dscp_t and stop taking ECN bits into account in fib-rules.
- Add support for locked bridge ports (for 802.1X).
- tun: support NAPI for packets received from batched XDP buffs,
doubling the performance in some scenarios.
- IPv6 extension header handling in Open vSwitch.
- Support IPv6 control message load balancing in bonding, prevent
neighbor solicitation and advertisement from using the wrong port.
Support NS/NA monitor selection similar to existing ARP monitor.
- SMC
- improve performance with TCP_CORK and sendfile()
- support auto-corking
- support TCP_NODELAY
- MCTP (Management Component Transport Protocol)
- add user space tag control interface
- I2C binding driver (as specified by DMTF DSP0237)
- Multi-BSSID beacon handling in AP mode for WiFi.
- Bluetooth:
- handle MSFT Monitor Device Event
- add MGMT Adv Monitor Device Found/Lost events
- Multi-Path TCP:
- add support for the SO_SNDTIMEO socket option
- lots of selftest cleanups and improvements
- Increase the max PDU size in CAN ISOTP to 64 kB.
Driver API
----------
- Add HW counters for SW netdevs, a mechanism for devices which
offload packet forwarding to report packet statistics back to
software interfaces such as tunnels.
- Select the default NIC queue count as a fraction of number of
physical CPU cores, instead of hard-coding to 8.
- Expose devlink instance locks to drivers. Allow device layer of
drivers to use that lock directly instead of creating their own
which always runs into ordering issues in devlink callbacks.
- Add header/data split indication to guide user space enabling of
TCP zero-copy Rx.
- Allow configuring completion queue event size.
- Refactor page_pool to enable fragmenting after allocation.
- Add allocation and page reuse statistics to page_pool.
- Improve Multiple Spanning Trees support in the bridge to allow
reuse of topologies across VLANs, saving HW resources in switches.
- DSA (Distributed Switch Architecture):
- replay and offload of host VLAN entries
- offload of static and local FDB entries on LAG interfaces
- FDB isolation and unicast filtering

Pull asm-generic updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"There are three sets of updates for 5.18 in the asm-generic tree:
- The set_fs()/get_fs() infrastructure gets removed for good.
This was already gone from all major architectures, but now we can
finally remove it everywhere, which loses some particularly tricky
and error-prone code. There is a small merge conflict against a
parisc cleanup, the solution is to use their new version.
- The nds32 architecture ends its tenure in the Linux kernel.
The hardware is still used and the code is in reasonable shape, but
the mainline port is not actively maintained any more, as all
remaining users are thought to run vendor kernels that would never
be updated to a future release.
- A series from Masahiro Yamada cleans up some of the uapi header
files to pass the compile-time checks"

Before the commit f9ce0be71d1f ("mm: Cleanup faultaround and finish_fault()
codepaths") there was a call to update_mmu_cache in alloc_set_pte that
used to invalidate TLB entry caching invalid PTE that caused a page
fault. That commit removed that call so now invalid TLB entry survives
causing repetitive page faults on the CPU that took the initial fault
until that TLB entry is occasionally evicted. This issue is spotted by
the xtensa TLB sanity checker.
Fix this issue by defining update_mmu_tlb function that flushes TLB entry
for the faulting address.

We need to use this function in common code, so define it for
architectures and/or configrations that miss it. The result of
pmd_pfn() will only be used if TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE is enabled,
but a function or macro called pmd_pfn() must be defined, even
on machines with two level page tables.
