Pull pidfd updates from Christian Brauner:
"This introduces a new extension to the pidfd_open() syscall. Users can
now raise the new PIDFD_NONBLOCK flag to support non-blocking pidfd
file descriptors. This has been requested for uses in async process
management libraries such as async-pidfd in Rust.
Ever since the introduction of pidfds and more advanced async io
various programming languages such as Rust have grown support for
async event libraries. These libraries are created to help build
epoll-based event loops around file descriptors. A common pattern is
to automatically make all file descriptors they manage to O_NONBLOCK.
For such libraries the EAGAIN error code is treated specially. When a
function is called that returns EAGAIN the function isn't called again
until the event loop indicates the the file descriptor is ready.
Supporting EAGAIN when waiting on pidfds makes such libraries just
work with little effort.
This introduces a new flag PIDFD_NONBLOCK that is equivalent to
O_NONBLOCK. This follows the same patterns we have for other (anon
inode) file descriptors such as EFD_NONBLOCK, IN_NONBLOCK,
SFD_NONBLOCK, TFD_NONBLOCK and the same for close-on-exec flags.
Passing a non-blocking pidfd to waitid() currently has no effect, i.e.
is not supported. There are users which would like to use waitid() on
pidfds that are O_NONBLOCK and mix it with pidfds that are blocking
and both pass them to waitid().
The expected behavior is to have waitid() return -EAGAIN for
non-blocking pidfds and to block for blocking pidfds without needing
to perform any additional checks for flags set on the pidfd before
passing it to waitid(). Non-blocking pidfds will return EAGAIN from
waitid() when no child process is ready yet. Returning -EAGAIN for
non-blocking pidfds makes it easier for event loops that handle EAGAIN
specially.
It also makes the API more consistent and uniform. In essence,
waitid() is treated like a read on a non-blocking pidfd or a recvmsg()
on a non-blocking socket.
With the addition of support for non-blocking pidfds we support the
same functionality that sockets do. For sockets() recvmsg() supports
MSG_DONTWAIT for pidfds waitid() supports WNOHANG. Both flags are
per-call options. In contrast non-blocking pidfds and non-blocking
sockets are a setting on an open file description affecting all
threads in the calling process as well as other processes that hold
file descriptors referring to the same open file description. Both
behaviors, per call and per open file description, have genuine
use-cases.
The interaction with the WNOHANG flag is documented as follows:
- If a non-blocking pidfd is passed and WNOHANG is not raised we
simply raise the WNOHANG flag internally. When do_wait() returns
indicating that there are eligible child processes but none have
exited yet we set EAGAIN. If no child process exists we continue
returning ECHILD.
- If a non-blocking pidfd is passed and WNOHANG is raised waitid()
will continue returning 0, i.e. it will not set EAGAIN. This ensure
backwards compatibility with applications passing WNOHANG
explicitly with pidfds"

Pull kernel_clone() updates from Christian Brauner:
"During the v5.9 merge window we reworked the process creation
codepaths across multiple architectures. After this work we were only
left with the _do_fork() helper based on the struct kernel_clone_args
calling convention. As was pointed out _do_fork() isn't valid
kernelese especially for a helper that isn't just static.
This series removes the _do_fork() helper and introduces the new
kernel_clone() helper. The process creation cleanup didn't change the
name to something more reasonable mainly because _do_fork() was used
in quite a few places. So sending this as a separate series seemed the
better strategy.
I originally intended to send this early in the v5.9 development cycle
after the merge window had closed but given that this was touching
quite a few places I decided to defer this until the v5.10 merge
window"

Pull x86 SEV-ES support from Borislav Petkov:
"SEV-ES enhances the current guest memory encryption support called SEV
by also encrypting the guest register state, making the registers
inaccessible to the hypervisor by en-/decrypting them on world
switches. Thus, it adds additional protection to Linux guests against
exfiltration, control flow and rollback attacks.
With SEV-ES, the guest is in full control of what registers the
hypervisor can access. This is provided by a guest-host exchange
mechanism based on a new exception vector called VMM Communication
Exception (#VC), a new instruction called VMGEXIT and a shared
Guest-Host Communication Block which is a decrypted page shared
between the guest and the hypervisor.
Intercepts to the hypervisor become #VC exceptions in an SEV-ES guest
so in order for that exception mechanism to work, the early x86 init
code needed to be made able to handle exceptions, which, in itself,
brings a bunch of very nice cleanups and improvements to the early
boot code like an early page fault handler, allowing for on-demand
building of the identity mapping. With that, !KASLR configurations do
not use the EFI page table anymore but switch to a kernel-controlled
one.
The main part of this series adds the support for that new exchange
mechanism. The goal has been to keep this as much as possibly separate
from the core x86 code by concentrating the machinery in two
SEV-ES-specific files:
arch/x86/kernel/sev-es-shared.c
arch/x86/kernel/sev-es.c
Other interaction with core x86 code has been kept at minimum and
behind static keys to minimize the performance impact on !SEV-ES
setups.

This patch reduces the running time for compaction_test from about 27 sec,
to 3.3 sec, which is about an 8x speedup.
These numbers are for an Intel x86_64 system with 32 GB of DRAM.
The compaction_test.c program was spending most of its time doing mmap(),
1 MB at a time, on about 25 GB of memory.
Instead, do the mmaps 100 MB at a time. (Going past 100 MB doesn't make
things go much faster, because other parts of the program are using the
remaining time.)

Avoid accidental wrong builds, due to built-in rules working just a little
bit too well--but not quite as well as required for our situation here.
In other words, "make userfaultfd" (for example) is supposed to fail to
build at all, because this Makefile only supports either "make" (all), or
"make /full/path". However, the built-in rules, if not suppressed, will
pick up CFLAGS and the initial LDLIBS (but not the target-specific LDLIBS,
because those are only set for the full path target!). This causes it to
get pretty far into building things despite using incorrect values such as
an *occasionally* incomplete LDLIBS value.

Patch series "selftests/vm: fix some minor aggravating factors in the Makefile".
This fixes a couple of minor aggravating factors that I ran across while
trying to do some changes in selftests/vm. These are simple things, but
like most things with GNU Make, it's rarely obvious what's wrong until you
understand *the entire Makefile and all of its includes*.
So while there is, of course, joy in learning those details, I thought I'd
fix these little things, so as to allow others to skip out on the Joy if
they so choose. :)
First of all, if you have an item (let's choose userfaultfd for an
example) that fails to build, you might do this:
$ make -j32
# ...you observe a failed item in the threaded output
# OK, let's get a closer look
$ make
# ...but now the build quietly "succeeds".
That's what Patch 0001 fixes.
Second, if you instead attempt this approach for your closer look (a casual
mistake, as it's not supported):
$ make userfaultfd
# ...userfaultfd fails to link, due to incomplete LDLIBS
That's what Patch 0002 fixes.
This patch (of 2):
If one or more of these selftest fail to build, then after the first
failure, subsequent invocations of "make" will make it appear that there
are no build failures, after all.
That's because the failed build products remain, with up-to-date
timestamps, thus tricking Make (and you!) into believing that there's
nothing else to build.
Fix this by telling Make to delete targets that didn't completely
succeed.

According to Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst, FOLL_PIN is a
prerequisite to FOLL_LONGTERM. Another way of saying that is,
FOLL_LONGTERM is a specific case, more restrictive case of FOLL_PIN.
Almost all kernel modules are using pin_user_pages() with FOLL_LONGTERM,
mm/gup_benchmark.c seems to the only exception in which FOLL_PIN is not a
prerequisite to FOLL_LONGTERM.

Break the requirement that device-dax instances are physically contiguous.
With this constraint removed it allows fragmented available capacity to
be fully allocated.
This capability is useful to mitigate the "noisy neighbor" problem with
memory-side-cache management for virtual machines, or any other scenario
where a platform address boundary also designates a performance boundary.
For example a direct mapped memory side cache might rotate cache colors at
1GB boundaries. With dis-contiguous allocations a device-dax instance
could be configured to contain only 1 cache color.
It also satisfies Joao's use case (see link) for partitioning memory for
exclusive guest access. It allows for a future potential mode where the
host kernel need not allocate 'struct page' capacity up-front.

The 'struct resource' in 'struct dev_pagemap' is only used for holding
resource span information. The other fields, 'name', 'flags', 'desc',
'parent', 'sibling', and 'child' are all unused wasted space.
This is in preparation for introducing a multi-range extension of
devm_memremap_pages().
The bulk of this change is unwinding all the places internal to libnvdimm
that used 'struct resource' unnecessarily, and replacing instances of
'struct dev_pagemap'.res with 'struct dev_pagemap'.range.
P2PDMA had a minor usage of the resource flags field, but only to report

The passed in dev_pagemap is only required in the pmem case as the
libnvdimm core may have reserved a vmem_altmap for dev_memremap_pages() to
place the memmap in pmem directly. In the hmem case there is no agent
reserving an altmap so it can all be handled by a core internal default.
Pass the resource range via a new @range property of 'struct
dev_dax_data'.

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
"This time very little driver changes but lots of core changes.
We have some interesting cooperative work for ARM and Intel alike,
making the GPIO subsystem more and more suitable for industrial
systems and the like, in addition to the in-kernel users.
We touch driver core (device properties) and lib/* by adding one
simple string array free function, these are authored by Andy
Shevchenko who is a well known and recognized core helpers maintainers
so this should be fine.
We also see some Android GKI-related modularization in the MXC
drivers.
Core changes:
- The big core change is the updated (v2) userspace character device
API.
This corrects badly designed 64-bit alignment around the line
events. We also add the debounce request feature. This echoes the
often quotes passage from Frederick Brooks "The mythical man-month"
to always throw one away, which we have seen before in things such
as V4L2. So we put in a new one and deprecate and obsolete the old
one.
- All example tools in tools/gpio/* are migrated to the new API to
set a good example. The libgpiod userspace library has been
augmented to use this new API pretty much from day 1.
- Some misc API hardening by using strn* function calls has been
added as well.
- Use the simpler IDA interface for GPIO chip instance enumeration.
- Add device core function for counting string arrays in device
properties.
- Provide a generic library function kfree_strarray() that can be
used throughout the kernel.
Driver enhancements:
- The DesignWare dwapb-gpio driver has been enhanced and now uses the
IRQ handling in the gpiolib core.
- The mockup and aggregator drivers have seen some substantial code
clean-up and now use more of the core kernel inftrastructure.
- Misc cleanups using dev_err_probe().
- The MXC drivers (Freescale/NXP) can now be built modularized, which
makes modularized GKI Android kernels happy"

Currently the BUILD_BUG() macro is expanded to the following:
do {
extern void __compiletime_assert_0(void)
__attribute__((error("BUILD_BUG failed")));
if (!(!(1)))
__compiletime_assert_0();
} while (0);
If used in a function body this would obviously produce build errors
with -Wnested-externs and -Werror.
To enable BUILD_BUG() usage in tools/arch/x86/lib/insn.c which perf
includes in intel-pt-decoder, build perf without -Wnested-externs.

Buried into NFS, that is.
Generally I'm less enthusiastic about "let's use in_compat_syscall()

in this case it's warranted - that had been an NFS-specific wart,
hopefully not to be repeated in any other filesystems (read: any new
filesystem introducing non-text mount options will get NAKed even if
it doesn't mess the layout up).
IOW, not worth trying to grow an infrastructure that would avoid that
use of in_compat_syscall()..."

Pull static call support from Ingo Molnar:
"This introduces static_call(), which is the idea of static_branch()
applied to indirect function calls. Remove a data load (indirection)
by modifying the text.
They give the flexibility of function pointers, but with better
performance. (This is especially important for cases where retpolines
would otherwise be used, as retpolines can be pretty slow.)
API overview:
DECLARE_STATIC_CALL(name, func);
DEFINE_STATIC_CALL(name, func);
DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_NULL(name, typename);
static_call(name)(args...);
static_call_cond(name)(args...);
static_call_update(name, func);
x86 is supported via text patching, otherwise basic indirect calls are
used, with function pointers.
There's a second variant using inline code patching, inspired by
jump-labels, implemented on x86 as well.
The new APIs are utilized in the x86 perf code, a heavy user of
function pointers, where static calls speed up the PMU handler by
4.2% (!).
The generic implementation is not really excercised on other
architectures, outside of the trivial test_static_call_init()
self-test"

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"These are the locking updates for v5.10:
- Add deadlock detection for recursive read-locks.
The rationale is outlined in commit 224ec489d3cd ("lockdep/
Documention: Recursive read lock detection reasoning")
The main deadlock pattern we want to detect is:
TASK A: TASK B:
read_lock(X);
write_lock(X);
read_lock_2(X);
- Add "latch sequence counters" (seqcount_latch_t):
A sequence counter variant where the counter even/odd value is used
to switch between two copies of protected data. This allows the
read path, typically NMIs, to safely interrupt the write side
critical section.
We utilize this new variant for sched-clock, and to make x86 TSC
handling safer.
