Older versions of BSD awk are fussy about the order of '-v' and '-f' flags, and require a space after the flag name. This causes build failures on platforms with an old awk, such as macOS and NetBSD. Since GNU awk and modern versions of BSD awk (distributed with FreeBSD/OpenBSD) are fine with either form, the definition of 'cmd_unroll' can be trivially tweaked to let the lib/raid6 Makefile work with both old and new awk flag dialects.

Changes the final fallback path in the ncurses locator for mconf to support host compilers with a non-default sysroot. This is similar to the hardcoded search for ncurses under '/usr/include', but can support compilers that keep their default header and library directories elsewhere. For nconfig, do nothing because the only vendor compiler I'm aware of with this layout (Apple Clang) ships an ncurses version that's too old for nconfig anyway.

Commit 436e980e ("kbuild: don't hardcode depmod path") stopped hard-coding the path of depmod, but in the process caused trouble for distributions that had that /sbin location, but didn't have it in the PATH (generally because /sbin is limited to the super-user path). Work around it for now by just adding /sbin to the end of PATH in the depmod.sh script.

For cancelling io_uring requests it needs either to be able to run currently enqueued task_works or having it shut down by that moment. Otherwise io_uring_cancel_files() may be waiting for requests that won't ever complete. Go with the first way and do cancellations before setting PF_EXITING and so before putting the task_work infrastructure into a transition state where task_work_run() would better not be called.

Add C-state table for the SnowRidge SoC which is found on Intel Jacobsville platforms. The following has been changed. 1. C1E latency changed from 10us to 15us. It was measured using the open source "wult" tool (the "nic" method, 15us is the 99.99th percentile). 2. C1E power break even changed from 20us to 25us, which may result in less C1E residency in some workloads. 3. C6 latency changed from 50us to 130us. Measured the same way as C1E. The C6 C-state is supported only by some SnowRidge revisions, so add a C-state table commentary about this. On SnowRidge, C6 support is enumerated via the usual mechanism: "mwait" leaf of the "cpuid" instruction. The 'intel_idle' driver does check this leaf, so even though C6 is present in the table, the driver will only use it if the CPU does support it.

When sugov_update_single_perf() falls back to the "frequency" path due to the missing scale-invariance, it will call cpufreq_driver_fast_switch() via sugov_fast_switch() and the driver's ->fast_switch() callback will be invoked, so it must not be NULL. However, after commit a365ab6b ("cpufreq: intel_pstate: Implement the ->adjust_perf() callback") intel_pstate sets ->fast_switch() to NULL when it is going to use intel_cpufreq_adjust_perf(), which is a mistake, because on x86 the scale-invariance may be turned off dynamically, so modify it to retain the original ->adjust_perf() callback pointer.

It's convenient to have page->objects initialized before calling into account_slab_page(). In particular, this information can be used to pre-alloc the obj_cgroup vector. Let's call account_slab_page() a bit later, after the initialization of page->objects. This commit doesn't bring any functional change, but is required for further optimizations.

In commit 11fb479f ("zlib: export S390 symbols for zlib modules"), I added EXPORT_SYMBOL()s to dfltcc_inflate.c but then Mikhail said that these should probably be in dfltcc_syms.c with the other EXPORT_SYMBOL()s. However, that is contrary to the current kernel style, which places EXPORT_SYMBOL() immediately after the function that it applies to, so move all EXPORT_SYMBOL()s to their respective function locations and drop the dfltcc_syms.c file. Also move MODULE_LICENSE() from the deleted file to dfltcc.c.

Decompressing zlib streams on s390 fails with "incorrect data check" error. Userspace zlib checks inflate_state.flags in order to byteswap checksums only for zlib streams, and s390 hardware inflate code, which was ported from there, tries to match this behavior. At the same time, kernel zlib does not use inflate_state.flags, so it contains essentially random values. For many use cases either zlib stream is zeroed out or checksum is not used, so this problem is masked, but at least SquashFS is still affected. Fix by always passing a checksum to and from the hardware as is, which matches zlib_inflate()'s expectations.

Some graphic card has very big memory on chip, such as 32G bytes. In the following case, it will cause overflow: pool = gen_pool_create(PAGE_SHIFT, NUMA_NO_NODE); ret = gen_pool_add(pool, 0x1000000, SZ_32G, NUMA_NO_NODE); va = gen_pool_alloc(pool, SZ_4G); The overflow occurs in gen_pool_alloc_algo_owner(): .... size = nbits << order; .... The @nbits is "int" type, so it will overflow. Then the gen_pool_avail() will return the wrong value. This patch converts some "int" to "unsigned long", and changes the compare code in while.

I'm not sure if I'm completely missing something here, but AFAIKS the reference to the mysterious "COW SMC race" confuses the issue. The original changelog and mailing list thread didn't help me either. This SMC race is where the problem was detected, but isn't the general problem bigger and more obvious: that the new PTE could be picked up at any time by any TLB while entries for the old PTE exist in other TLBs before the TLB flush takes effect? The case where the iTLB and dTLB of a CPU are pointing at different pages is an interesting one but follows from the general problem. The other (minor) thing with the comment I think it makes it a bit clearer to say what the old code was doing (i.e., it avoids the race as opposed to what?).

Before the commit: [0.033176] Normal zone: 1445888 pages used for memmap [0.033176] Normal zone: 89391104 pages, LIFO batch:63 [0.035851] ACPI: PM-Timer IO Port: 0x448 With commit [0.026874] Normal zone: 1445888 pages used for memmap [0.026875] Normal zone: 89391104 pages, LIFO batch:63 [2.028450] ACPI: PM-Timer IO Port: 0x448 The root cause is the current memmap defer init doesn't work as expected. Before, memmap_init_zone() was used to do memmap init of one whole zone, to initialize all low zones of one numa node, but defer memmap init of the last zone in that numa node. However, since commit 73a6e474, function memmap_init() is adapted to iterater over memblock regions inside one zone, then call memmap_init_zone() to do memmap init for each region. E.g, on VMware's system, the memory layout is as below, there are two memory regions in node 2. The current code will mistakenly initialize the whole 1st region [mem 0xab00000000-0xfcffffffff], then do memmap defer to iniatialize only one memmory section on the 2nd region [mem 0x10000000000-0x1033fffffff]. In fact, we only expect to see that there's only one memory section's memmap initialized. That's why more time is costed at the time. [ 0.008842] ACPI: SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x00000000-0x0009ffff] [ 0.008842] ACPI: SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x00100000-0xbfffffff] [ 0.008843] ACPI: SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x100000000-0x55ffffffff] [ 0.008844] ACPI: SRAT: Node 1 PXM 1 [mem 0x5600000000-0xaaffffffff] [ 0.008844] ACPI: SRAT: Node 2 PXM 2 [mem 0xab00000000-0xfcffffffff] [ 0.008845] ACPI: SRAT: Node 2 PXM 2 [mem 0x10000000000-0x1033fffffff] Now, let's add a parameter 'zone_end_pfn' to memmap_init_zone() to pass down the real zone end pfn so that defer_init() can use it to judge whether defer need be taken in zone wide.

Otherwise it causes a gcc warning: mm/filemap.c:830:14: warning: no previous prototype for `__add_to_page_cache_locked' [-Wmissing-prototypes] A previous attempt to make this function static led to compilation errors when CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF is enabled because __add_to_page_cache_locked() is referred to by BPF code. Adding a prototype will silence the warning.

This reverts commit 14dc3983. Macro Elver had sent a fix proper fix earlier, and also pointed out corner cases: "I guess what you propose is simpler, but might still have corner cases where we still get warnings. In particular, if some file (for whatever reason) does not include build_bug.h and uses a raw _Static_assert(), then we still get warnings. E.g. I see 1 user of raw _Static_assert() (drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgv_sriovmsg.h )." I believe the raw use of _Static_assert() should be allowed, so this should be fixed in genksyms. Even after commit 14dc3983 ("kbuild: avoid static_assert for genksyms"), I confirmed the following test code emits the warning. ---------------->8---------------- #include <linux/export.h> _Static_assert((1 ?: 0), ""); void foo(void) { } EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); ---------------->8---------------- WARNING: modpost: EXPORT symbol "foo" [vmlinux] version generation failed, symbol will not be versioned. Now that commit 869b91992bce ("genksyms: Ignore module scoped _Static_assert()") fixed this issue properly, the workaround should be reverted.
