Documentation: Add document for false sharing
When doing performance tuning or debugging performance regressions,
more and more cases are found to be related to false sharing [1][2][3],
and the situation can be worse for newer platforms with hundreds of
CPUs. There are already many commits in current kernel specially
for mitigating the performance degradation due to false sharing.
False sharing could harm the performance silently without being
noticed, due to reasons like:
* data members of a big data structure randomly sitting together
in one cache line
* global data of small size are linked compactly together
So it's better to make a simple document about the normal pattern
of false sharing, basic ways to mitigate it and call out to
developers to pay attention during code-writing.

docs: describe how to quickly build a trimmed kernel
Add a text explaining how to quickly build a kernel, as that's something
users will often have to do when they want to report an issue or test
proposed fixes. This is a huge and frightening task for quite a few
users these days, as many rely on pre-compiled kernels and have never
built their own. They find help on quite a few websites explaining the
process in various ways, but those howtos often omit important details
or make things too hard for the 'quickly build just for testing' case
that 'localmodconfig' is really useful for. Hence give users something
at hand to guide them, as that makes it easier for them to help with
testing, debugging, and fixing the kernel.
To keep the complexity at bay, the document explicitly focuses on how to
compile the kernel on commodity distributions running on commodity
hardware. People that deal with less common distributions or hardware
will often know their way around already anyway.
The text describes a few oddities of Arch and Debian that were found by
the author and a few volunteers that tested the described procedure.
There are likely more such quirks that need to be covered as well as a
few things the author will have missed -- but one has to start
somewhere.
The document heavily uses anchors and links to them, which makes things
slightly harder to read in the source form. But the intended target
audience is way more likely to read rendered versions of this text on
pages like docs.kernel.org anyway -- and there those anchors and links
allow easy jumps to the reference section and back, which makes the
document a lot easier to work with for the intended target audience.
Aspects relevant for bisection were left out on purpose, as that is a
related, but in the end different use case. The rough plan is to have a
second document with a similar style to cover bisection. The idea is to
reuse a few bits from this document and link quite often to entries in
the reference section with the help of the anchors in this text.

cpumask: re-introduce constant-sized cpumask optimizations
Commit
aa47a7c215e7 ("lib/cpumask: deprecate nr_cpumask_bits") resulted
in the cpumask operations potentially becoming hugely less efficient,
because suddenly the cpumask was always considered to be variable-sized.
The optimization was then later added back in a limited form by commit
6f9c07be9d02 ("lib/cpumask: add FORCE_NR_CPUS config option"), but that
FORCE_NR_CPUS option is not useful in a generic kernel and more of a
special case for embedded situations with fixed hardware.
Instead, just re-introduce the optimization, with some changes.
Instead of depending on CPUMASK_OFFSTACK being false, and then always
using the full constant cpumask width, this introduces three different
cpumask "sizes":
- the exact size (nr_cpumask_bits) remains identical to nr_cpu_ids.
This is used for situations where we should use the exact size.
- the "small" size (small_cpumask_bits) is the NR_CPUS constant if it
fits in a single word and the bitmap operations thus end up able
to trigger the "small_const_nbits()" optimizations.
This is used for the operations that have optimized single-word
cases that get inlined, notably the bit find and scanning functions.
- the "large" size (large_cpumask_bits) is the NR_CPUS constant if it
is an sufficiently small constant that makes simple "copy" and
"clear" operations more efficient.
This is arbitrarily set at four words or less.
As a an example of this situation, without this fixed size optimization,
cpumask_clear() will generate code like
movl nr_cpu_ids(%rip), %edx
addq $63, %rdx
shrq $3, %rdx
andl $-8, %edx
callq memset@PLT
on x86-64, because it would calculate the "exact" number of longwords
that need to be cleared.
In contrast, with this patch, using a MAX_CPU of 64 (which is quite a
reasonable value to use), the above becomes a single
movq $0,cpumask
instruction instead, because instead of caring to figure out exactly how
many CPU's the system has, it just knows that the cpumask will be a
single word and can just clear it all.
Note that this does end up tightening the rules a bit from the original
version in another way: operations that set bits in the cpumask are now
limited to the actual nr_cpu_ids limit, whereas we used to do the
nr_cpumask_bits thing almost everywhere in the cpumask code.
But if you just clear bits, or scan for bits, we can use the simpler
compile-time constants.
In the process, remove 'cpumask_complement()' and 'for_each_cpu_not()'
which were not useful, and which fundamentally have to be limited to
'nr_cpu_ids'. Better remove them now than have somebody introduce use
of them later.
Of course, on x86-64 with MAXSMP there is no sane small compile-time
constant for the cpumask sizes, and we end up using the actual CPU bits,
and will generate the above kind of horrors regardless. Please don't
use MAXSMP unless you really expect to have machines with thousands of
cores.

"Some of the page fault handlers do not deal with the following case
correctly:
- handle_mm_fault() has returned VM_FAULT_RETRY
- there is a pending fatal signal
- fault had happened in kernel mode
Correct action in such case is not "return unconditionally" - fatal
signals are handled only upon return to userland and something like
copy_to_user() would end up retrying the faulting instruction and
triggering the same fault again and again.
What we need to do in such case is to make the caller to treat that as
failed uaccess attempt - handle exception if there is an exception
handler for faulting instruction or oops if there isn't one.
Over the years some architectures had been fixed and now are handling
that case properly; some still do not. This series should fix the
remaining ones.

Remove Intel compiler support
include/linux/compiler-intel.h had no update in the past 3 years.
We often forget about the third C compiler to build the kernel.
For example, commit
a0a12c3ed057 ("asm goto: eradicate CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO")
only mentioned GCC and Clang.
init/Kconfig defines CC_IS_GCC and CC_IS_CLANG but not CC_IS_ICC,
and nobody has reported any issue.
I guess the Intel Compiler support is broken, and nobody is caring
about it.
Harald Arnesen pointed out ICC (classic Intel C/C++ compiler) is
deprecated:
$ icc -v
icc: remark #10441: The Intel(R) C++ Compiler Classic (ICC) is
deprecated and will be removed from product release in the second half

mm: avoid gcc complaint about pointer casting
The migration code ends up temporarily stashing information of the wrong
type in unused fields of the newly allocated destination folio. That
all works fine, but gcc does complain about the pointer type mis-use:
mm/migrate.c: In function ‘__migrate_folio_extract’:
mm/migrate.c:1050:20: note: randstruct: casting between randomized structure pointer types (ssa): ‘struct anon_vma’ and ‘struct address_space’
1050 | *anon_vmap = (void *)dst->mapping;
| ~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
and gcc is actually right to complain since it really doesn't understand
that this is a very temporary special case where this is ok.
This could be fixed in different ways by just obfuscating the assignment
sufficiently that gcc doesn't see what is going on, but the truly
"proper C" way to do this is by explicitly using a union.
Using unions for type conversions like this is normally hugely ugly and
syntactically nasty, but this really is one of the few cases where we
want to make it clear that we're not doing type conversion, we're really
re-using the value bit-for-bit just using another type.
IOW, this should not become a common pattern, but in this one case using
that odd union is probably the best way to document to the compiler what
is conceptually going on here.
[ Side note: there are valid cases where we convert pointers to other
pointer types, notably the whole "folio vs page" situation, where the
types actually have fundamental commonalities.
The fact that the gcc note is limited to just randomized structures
means that we don't see equivalent warnings for those cases, but it
migth also mean that we miss other cases where we do play these kinds
of dodgy games, and this kind of explicit conversion might be a good
idea. ]
I verified that at least for an allmodconfig build on x86-64, this
generates the exact same code, apart from line numbers and assembler
comment changes.

umh: simplify the capability pointer logic
The usermodehelper code uses two fake pointers for the two capability
cases: CAP_BSET for reading and writing 'usermodehelper_bset', and
CAP_PI to read and write 'usermodehelper_inheritable'.
This seems to be a completely unnecessary indirection, since we could
instead just use the pointers themselves, and never have to do any "if
this then that" kind of logic.
So just get rid of the fake pointer values, and use the real pointer
values instead.

Merge tag 's390-6.3-2' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/s390/linux
Pull more s390 updates from Heiko Carstens:
- Add empty command line parameter handling stubs to kernel for all
command line parameters which are handled in the decompressor. This
avoids invalid "Unknown kernel command line parameters" messages from
the kernel, and also avoids that these will be incorrectly passed to
user space. This caused already confusion, therefore add the empty
stubs
- Add missing phys_to_virt() handling to machine check handler
- Introduce and use a union to be used for zcrypt inline assemblies.
This makes sure that only a register wide member of the union is
passed as input and output parameter to inline assemblies, while
usual C code uses other members of the union to access bit fields of
it
- Add and use a READ_ONCE_ALIGNED_128() macro, which can be used to
atomically read a 128-bit value from memory. This replaces the
(mis-)use of the 128-bit cmpxchg operation to do the same in cpum_sf
code. Currently gcc does not generate the used lpq instruction if
__READ_ONCE() is used for aligned 128-bit accesses, therefore use
this s390 specific helper
- Simplify machine check handler code if a task needs to be killed
because of e.g. register corruption due to a machine malfunction
- Perform CPU reset to clear pending interrupts and TLB entries on an
already stopped target CPU before delegating work to it
- Generate arch/s390/boot/vmlinux.map link map for the decompressor,
when CONFIG_VMLINUX_MAP is enabled for debugging purposes
- Fix segment type handling for dcssblk devices. It incorrectly always
returned type "READ/WRITE" even for read-only segements, which can
result in a kernel panic if somebody tries to write to a read-only
device
- Sort config S390 select list again
