ia64/cpu: Switch to arch_cpu_finalize_init()

2023-08-08T18:04:48Z

commit 6c38e3005621800263f117fb00d6787a76e16de7 upstream check_bugs() is about to be phased out. Switch over to the new arch_cpu_finalize_init() implementation. No functional change.

ia64: mmap: Consider pgoff when searching for free mapping

2023-07-27T06:56:36Z

commit 07e981137f17e5275b6fa5fd0c28b0ddb4519702 upstream. IA64 is the only architecture which does not consider the pgoff value when searching for a possible free memory region with vm_unmapped_area(). Adding this seems to have no negative side effect on IA64, so add it now to make IA64 consistent with all other architectures.

mm: always expand the stack with the mmap write lock held

2023-07-01T11:12:40Z

commit 8d7071af890768438c14db6172cc8f9f4d04e184 upstream. This finishes the job of always holding the mmap write lock when extending the user stack vma, and removes the 'write_locked' argument from the vm helper functions again. For some cases, we just avoid expanding the stack at all: drivers and page pinning really shouldn't be extending any stacks. Let's see if any strange users really wanted that. It's worth noting that architectures that weren't converted to the new lock_mm_and_find_vma() helper function are left using the legacy "expand_stack()" function, but it has been changed to drop the mmap_lock and take it for writing while expanding the vma. This makes it fairly straightforward to convert the remaining architectures. As a result of dropping and re-taking the lock, the calling conventions for this function have also changed, since the old vma may no longer be valid. So it will now return the new vma if successful, and NULL - and the lock dropped - if the area could not be extended.

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain: "This only does a few sysctl moves from the kernel/sysctl.c file, the rest of the work has been put towards deprecating two API calls which incur recursion and prevent us from simplifying the registration process / saving memory per move. Most of the changes have been soaking on linux-next since v6.3-rc3. I've slowed down the kernel/sysctl.c moves due to Matthew Wilcox's feedback that we should see if we could *save* memory with these moves instead of incurring more memory. We currently incur more memory since when we move a syctl from kernel/sysclt.c out to its own file we end up having to add a new empty sysctl used to register it. To achieve saving memory we want to allow syctls to be passed without requiring the end element being empty, and just have our registration process rely on ARRAY_SIZE(). Without this, supporting both styles of sysctls would make the sysctl registration pretty brittle, hard to read and maintain as can be seen from Meng Tang's efforts to do just this [0]. Fortunately, in order to use ARRAY_SIZE() for all sysctl registrations also implies doing the work to deprecate two API calls which use recursion in order to support sysctl declarations with subdirectories. And so during this development cycle quite a bit of effort went into this deprecation effort. I've annotated the following two APIs are deprecated and in few kernel releases we should be good to remove them: - register_sysctl_table() - register_sysctl_paths() During this merge window we should be able to deprecate and unexport register_sysctl_paths(), we can probably do that towards the end of this merge window. Deprecating register_sysctl_table() will take a bit more time but this pull request goes with a few example of how to do this. As it turns out each of the conversions to move away from either of these two API calls *also* saves memory. And so long term, all these changes *will* prove to have saved a bit of memory on boot. The way I see it then is if remove a user of one deprecated call, it gives us enough savings to move one kernel/sysctl.c out from the generic arrays as we end up with about the same amount of bytes. Since deprecating register_sysctl_table() and register_sysctl_paths() does not require maintainer coordination except the final unexport you'll see quite a bit of these changes from other pull requests, I've just kept the stragglers after rc3" Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/ZAD+cpbrqlc5vmry@bombadil.infradead.org [0] * tag 'sysctl-6.4-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux: (29 commits) fs: fix sysctls.c built mm: compaction: remove incorrect #ifdef checks mm: compaction: move compaction sysctl to its own file mm: memory-failure: Move memory failure sysctls to its own file arm: simplify two-level sysctl registration for ctl_isa_vars ia64: simplify one-level sysctl registration for kdump_ctl_table utsname: simplify one-level sysctl registration for uts_kern_table ntfs: simplfy one-level sysctl registration for ntfs_sysctls coda: simplify one-level sysctl registration for coda_table fs/cachefiles: simplify one-level sysctl registration for cachefiles_sysctls xfs: simplify two-level sysctl registration for xfs_table nfs: simplify two-level sysctl registration for nfs_cb_sysctls nfs: simplify two-level sysctl registration for nfs4_cb_sysctls lockd: simplify two-level sysctl registration for nlm_sysctls proc_sysctl: enhance documentation xen: simplify sysctl registration for balloon md: simplify sysctl registration hv: simplify sysctl registration scsi: simplify sysctl registration with register_sysctl() csky: simplify alignment sysctl registration ...
