Naming interrupt domains host is confusing at best and the irqdomain code
uses both domain and host inconsistently.

Therefore rename irq_set_default_host() to irq_set_default_domain().

Pull irq driver updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Support for hard indices on RISC-V. The hart index identifies a hart
   (core) within a specific interrupt domain in RISC-V's Priviledged
   Architecture.

 - Rework of the RISC-V MSI driver

   This moves the driver over to the generic MSI library and solves the
   affinity problem of unmaskable PCI/MSI controllers. Unmaskable
   PCI/MSI controllers are prone to lose interrupts when the MSI message
   is updated to change the affinity because the message write consists
   of three 32-bit subsequent writes, which update address and data. As
   these writes are non-atomic versus the device raising an interrupt,
   the device can observe a half written update and issue an interrupt
   on the wrong vector. This is mitiated by a carefully orchestrated
   step by step update and the observation of an eventually pending
   interrupt on the CPU which issues the update. The algorithm follows
   the well established method of the X86 MSI driver.

 - A new driver for the RISC-V Sophgo SG2042 MSI controller

 - Overhaul of the Renesas RZQ2L driver

   Simplification of the probe function by using devm_*() mechanisms,
   which avoid the endless list of error prone gotos in the failure
   paths.

 - Expand the Renesas RZV2H driver to support RZ/G3E SoCs

 - A workaround for Rockchip 3568002 erratum in the GIC-V3 driver to
   ensure that the addressing is limited to the lower 32-bit of the
   physical address space.

 - Add support for the Allwinner AS23 NMI controller

 - Expand the IMX irqsteer driver to handle up to 960 input interrupts

 - The usual small updates, cleanups and device tree changes

APIC detection is currently limited to a few specific Families and will
not match the upcoming Families &gt;=18.

Extend the check to include all Families 6 or greater. Also convert it
to a VFM check to make it simpler.

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=604ea3e90b17f27928a64d86259c57710c254438'/>
<id>urn:sha1:604ea3e90b17f27928a64d86259c57710c254438</id>
<content type='text'>
The safe_smp_processor_id() function was originally implemented in:

  dc2bc768a009 ("stack overflow safe kdump: safe_smp_processor_id()")

to mitigate the CPU number corruption on a stack overflow.  At the time,
x86-32 stored the CPU number in thread_struct, which was located at the
bottom of the task stack and thus vulnerable to an overflow.

The CPU number is now located in percpu memory, so this workaround
is no longer needed.

<title>x86/smp: Drop 32-bit "bigsmp" machine support</title>
<updated>2025-02-27T10:19:05Z</updated>
<author>
<name>Arnd Bergmann</name>
</author>
<published>2025-02-26T21:37:06Z</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=0abf508675c0dbbca6a387842f90db60756c4af5'/>
<id>urn:sha1:0abf508675c0dbbca6a387842f90db60756c4af5</id>
<content type='text'>
The x86-32 kernel used to support multiple platforms with more than eight
logical CPUs, from the 1999-2003 timeframe: Sequent NUMA-Q, IBM Summit,
Unisys ES7000 and HP F8. Support for all except the latter was dropped
back in 2014, leaving only the F8 based DL740 and DL760 G2 machines in
this catery, with up to eight single-core Socket-603 Xeon-MP processors
with hyperthreading.

Like the already removed machines, the HP F8 servers at the time cost
upwards of $100k in typical configurations, but were quickly obsoleted
by their 64-bit Socket-604 cousins and the AMD Opteron.

Earlier servers with up to 8 Pentium Pro or Xeon processors remain
fully supported as they had no hyperthreading. Similarly, the more
common 4-socket Xeon-MP machines with hyperthreading using Intel
or ServerWorks chipsets continue to work without this, and all the
multi-core Xeon processors also run 64-bit kernels.

While the "bigsmp" support can also be used to run on later 64-bit
machines (including VM guests), it seems best to discourage that
and get any remaining users to update their kernels to 64-bit builds
on these. As a side-effect of this, there is also no more need to
support NUMA configurations on 32-bit x86, as all true 32-bit
NUMA platforms are already gone.

<title>genirq: Introduce common irq_force_complete_move() implementation</title>
<updated>2025-02-20T14:19:26Z</updated>

<id>urn:sha1:751dc837dabd275d0ab165fc737c10f80e2e863a</id>
<content type='text'>
CONFIG_GENERIC_PENDING_IRQ requires an architecture specific implementation
of irq_force_complete_move() for CPU hotplug. At the moment, only x86
implements this unconditionally, but for RISC-V irq_force_complete_move()
is only needed when the RISC-V IMSIC driver is in use and not needed
otherwise.

To allow runtime configuration of this mechanism, introduce a common
irq_force_complete_move() implementation in the interrupt core code, which
only invokes the completion function, when a interrupt chip in the
hierarchy implements it.

Switch X86 over to the new mechanism. No functional change intended.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
 "The various patchsets are summarized below. Plus of course many
  indivudual patches which are described in their changelogs.

   - "Allocate and free frozen pages" from Matthew Wilcox reorganizes
     the page allocator so we end up with the ability to allocate and
     free zero-refcount pages. So that callers (ie, slab) can avoid a
     refcount inc &amp; dec

   - "Support large folios for tmpfs" from Baolin Wang teaches tmpfs to
     use large folios other than PMD-sized ones

   - "Fix mm/rodata_test" from Petr Tesarik performs some maintenance
     and fixes for this small built-in kernel selftest

     It should reduce the amount of unnecessary reading

   - "synchronously scan and reclaim empty user PTE pages" from Qi Zheng
     addresses an issue where "huge" amounts of pte pagetables are
     accumulated:

       https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1718267194.git.zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com/

     Qi's series addresses this windup by synchronously freeing PTE
     memory within the context of madvise(MADV_DONTNEED)

   - "selftest/mm: Remove warnings found by adding compiler flags" from
     Muhammad Usama Anjum fixes some build warnings in the selftests
     code when optional compiler warnings are enabled

     Brodsky cleans up the pagetable destructor implementations. A rare
     use-after-free race is fixed

   - "mm/debug: introduce and use VM_WARN_ON_VMG()" from Lorenzo Stoakes
     simplifies and cleans up the debugging code in the VMA merging
     logic

   - "Account page tables at all levels" from Kevin Brodsky cleans up
     and regularizes the pagetable ctor/dtor handling. This results in
     improvements in accounting accuracy

   - "mm/damon: replace most damon_callback usages in sysfs with new

     but also inclusion (allowing) behavior

   - "Add zpdesc memory descriptor for zswap.zpool" from Alex Shi
     introduces a new memory descriptor for zswap.zpool that currently
     overlaps with struct page for now. This is part of the effort to
     reduce the size of struct page and to enable dynamic allocation of
     memory descriptors

   - "mm, swap: rework of swap allocator locks" from Kairui Song redoes
     and simplifies the swap allocator locking. A speedup of 400% was
     demonstrated for one workload. As was a 35% reduction for kernel
     build time with swap-on-zram
