Pull s390 updates from Heiko Carstens:

 - Provide a new interface for dynamic configuration and deconfiguration
   of hotplug memory, allowing with and without memmap_on_memory
   support. This makes the way memory hotplug is handled on s390 much
   more similar to other architectures

 - Remove compat support. There shouldn't be any compat user space
   around anymore, therefore get rid of a lot of code which also doesn't
   need to be tested anymore

 - Add stackprotector support. GCC 16 will get new compiler options,
   which allow to generate code required for kernel stackprotector
   support

 - Merge pai_crypto and pai_ext PMU drivers into a new driver. This
   removes a lot of duplicated code. The new driver is also extendable
   and allows to support new PMUs

 - Add driver override support for AP queues

 - Rework and extend zcrypt and AP trace events to allow for tracing of
   crypto requests

 - Support block sizes larger than 65535 bytes for CCW tape devices

 - Since the rework of the virtual kernel address space the module area
   and the kernel image are within the same 4GB area. This eliminates
   the need of weak per cpu variables. Get rid of
   ARCH_MODULE_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU

 - Various other small improvements and fixes

<title>s390/mm: Fix __ptep_rdp() inline assembly</title>

<content type='text'>
When a zero ASCE is passed to the __ptep_rdp() inline assembly, the
generated instruction should have the R3 field of the instruction set to
zero. However the inline assembly is written incorrectly: for such cases a
zero is loaded into a register allocated by the compiler and this register
is then used by the instruction.

This means that selected TLB entries may not be flushed since the specified
ASCE does not match the one which was used when the selected TLB entries
were created.

Fix this by removing the asce and opt parameters of __ptep_rdp(), since
all callers always pass zero, and use a hard-coded register zero for
the R3 field.

<title>s390/mm: Replace the CSP instruction with CSPG</title>

<content type='text'>
The CSPG instruction is part of the Dat-Enhancement facility 1, which
is always available. Given that it can be used everywhere where also
the CSP instruction can be used, replace CSP with CSPG everywhere.

This allows to remove the csp() inline assembly. Also remove the
unused gmap_pmdp_csp() function.

KVM run fails when guests with 'cmm' cpu feature and host are
under memory pressure and use swap heavily. This is because
npages becomes ENOMEN (out of memory) in hva_to_pfn_slow()
which inturn propagates as EFAULT to qemu. Clearing the page
table entry when discarding an address that maps to a swap
entry resolves the issue.

<title>s390/mm: Enable THP_SWAP and THP_MIGRATION</title>
<updated>2025-07-31T16:59:26Z</updated>
<author>
<name>Gerald Schaefer</name>
</author>
<published>2025-07-29T11:16:19Z</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=10dd5a0009898ba35eafeb6087e5c83b84742ff1'/>
<id>urn:sha1:10dd5a0009898ba35eafeb6087e5c83b84742ff1</id>
<content type='text'>
After hugetlbfs PTE_MARKER support for s390 introduced region-third and
segment table swap entries, it is now possible to also enable THP_SWAP
and THP_MIGRATION for s390.

s390 has different layout for PTE and region / segment table entries
(RSTE). This is also true for swap entries, and their swap type and offset
encoding. For hugetlbfs PTE_MARKER support, s390 has internal
__swp_type_rste() and __swp_offset_rste() helpers to correctly handle RSTE
swap entries.

But common swap code does not know about this difference, and only uses
__swp_type(), __swp_offset() and __swp_entry() helpers for conversion
between arch-dependent and arch-independent representation of swp_entry_t
for all pagetable levels. On s390, those helpers only work for PTE swap
entries.

Therefore, implement __pmd_to_swp_entry() to build a fake PTE swap entry
and return the arch-dependent representation of that. Correspondingly,
implement __swp_entry_to_pmd() to convert that into a proper PMD swap
entry again. With this, the arch-dependent swp_entry_t representation will
always look like a PTE swap entry in common code.

This is somewhat similar to fake PTEs in hugetlbfs code for s390, but only
requires conversion of the swap type and offset, and not all the possible
PTE bits.

For PMD swap entry SOFT_DIRTY handling, use the same helpers as for normal
PMDs. Similar to PTEs, the SOFT_DIRTY bit location is the same for swap
and normal entries.

Make pte_swp_exclusive return bool instead of int.  This will better
reflect how pte_swp_exclusive is actually used in the code.

This fixes swap/swapoff problems on Alpha due pte_swp_exclusive not
returning correct values when _PAGE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE bit resides in upper
32-bits of PTE (like on alpha).

Most architectures simply call pfn_pte().  Centralise that as the normal
definition and remove the definition of mk_pte() from the architectures
which have either that exact definition or something similar.

<title>mm: set the pte dirty if the folio is already dirty</title>

Patch series "Add folio_mk_pte()", v2.

Today if you have a folio and want to create a PTE that points to the
first page in it, you have to convert from a folio to a page.  That's
zero-cost today but will be more expensive in the future.

I didn't want to add folio_mk_pte() to each architecture, and I didn't
want to lose any optimisations that architectures have from their own
implementation of mk_pte().  Fortunately, most architectures have by now
turned their mk_pte() into a fairly bland variant of pfn_pte(), but s390
has a special optimisation that needs to be moved into generic code in the
first patch.

At the end of this patch set, we have mk_pte() and folio_mk_pte() in mm.h
and each architecture only has to implement pfn_pte().  We've also
eliminated mk_huge_pte(), mk_huge_pmd() and mk_pmd().


This patch (of 11):

If the first access to a folio is a read that is then followed by a write,
we can save a page fault.  s390 implemented this in their mk_pte() in
commit abf09bed3cce ("s390/mm: implement software dirty bits"), but other
architectures can also benefit from this.
