With GCOV_PROFILE_ALL, Clang injects __llvm_gcov_* functions to each object file, and the functions are indirectly called during boot. However, when code is injected to object files that are not part of vmlinux.o, it's also not processed by objtool, which breaks CFI hash randomization as the hashes in these files won't be included in the .cfi_sites section and thus won't be randomized. Similarly to commit 42633ed8 ("kbuild: Fix CFI hash randomization with KASAN"), disable GCOV for .vmlinux.export.o and init/version-timestamp.o to avoid emitting unnecessary functions to object files that don't otherwise have executable code. Fixes: 0c3e806e ("x86/cfi: Add boot time hash randomization") Reported-by:

X86 is reworking the boot process so that initializations which are not required during early boot can be moved into the late boot process and out of the fragile and restricted initial boot phase. arch_cpu_finalize_init() is the obvious place to do such initializations, but arch_cpu_finalize_init() is invoked too late in start_kernel() e.g. for initializing the FPU completely. fork_init() requires that the FPU is initialized as the size of task_struct on X86 depends on the size of the required FPU register buffer. Fortunately none of the init calls between calibrate_delay() and arch_cpu_finalize_init() is relevant for the functionality of arch_cpu_finalize_init(). Invoke it right after calibrate_delay() where everything which is relevant for arch_cpu_finalize_init() has been set up already. No functional change intended. Signed-off-by:

check_bugs() has become a dumping ground for all sorts of activities to finalize the CPU initialization before running the rest of the init code. Most are empty, a few do actual bug checks, some do alternative patching and some cobble a CPU advertisement string together.... Aside of that the current implementation requires duplicated function declaration and mostly empty header files for them. Provide a new function arch_cpu_finalize_init(). Provide a generic declaration if CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPU_FINALIZE_INIT is selected and a stub inline otherwise. This requires a temporary #ifdef in start_kernel() which will be removed along with check_bugs() once the architectures are converted over. Signed-off-by:

There is currently no good way to query the page cache state of large file sets and directory trees. There is mincore(), but it scales poorly: the kernel writes out a lot of bitmap data that userspace has to aggregate, when the user really doesn not care about per-page information in that case. The user also needs to mmap and unmap each file as it goes along, which can be quite slow as well. Some use cases where this information could come in handy: * Allowing database to decide whether to perform an index scan or direct table queries based on the in-memory cache state of the index. * Visibility into the writeback algorithm, for performance issues diagnostic. * Workload-aware writeback pacing: estimating IO fulfilled by page cache (and IO to be done) within a range of a file, allowing for more frequent syncing when and where there is IO capacity, and batching when there is not. * Computing memory usage of large files/directory trees, analogous to the du tool for disk usage. More information about these use cases could be found in the following thread: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230315170934.GA97793@cmpxchg.org/ This patch implements a new syscall that queries cache state of a file and summarizes the number of cached pages, number of dirty pages, number of pages marked for writeback, number of (recently) evicted pages, etc. in a given range. Currently, the syscall is only wired in for x86 architecture. NAME cachestat - query the page cache statistics of a file. SYNOPSIS #include <sys/mman.h> struct cachestat_range { __u64 off; __u64 len; }; struct cachestat { __u64 nr_cache; __u64 nr_dirty; __u64 nr_writeback; __u64 nr_evicted; __u64 nr_recently_evicted; }; int cachestat(unsigned int fd, struct cachestat_range *cstat_range, struct cachestat *cstat, unsigned int flags); DESCRIPTION cachestat() queries the number of cached pages, number of dirty pages, number of pages marked for writeback, number of evicted pages, number of recently evicted pages, in the bytes range given by `off` and `len`. An evicted page is a page that is previously in the page cache but has been evicted since. A page is recently evicted if its last eviction was recent enough that its reentry to the cache would indicate that it is actively being used by the system, and that there is memory pressure on the system. These values are returned in a cachestat struct, whose address is given by the `cstat` argument. The `off` and `len` arguments must be non-negative integers. If `len` > 0, the queried range is [`off`, `off` + `len`]. If `len` == 0, we will query in the range from `off` to the end of the file. The `flags` argument is unused for now, but is included for future extensibility. User should pass 0 (i.e no flag specified). Currently, hugetlbfs is not supported. Because the status of a page can change after cachestat() checks it but before it returns to the application, the returned values may contain stale information. RETURN VALUE On success, cachestat returns 0. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set to indicate the error. ERRORS EFAULT cstat or cstat_args points to an invalid address. EINVAL invalid flags. EBADF invalid file descriptor. EOPNOTSUPP file descriptor is of a hugetlbfs file [nphamcs@gmail.com: replace rounddown logic with the existing helper] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230504022044.3675469-1-nphamcs@gmail.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230503013608.2431726-3-nphamcs@gmail.com Signed-off-by:

Back during the discussion of commit a9a3ed1e ("x86: Fix early boot crash on gcc-10, third try") we discussed the need for a function attribute to control the omission of stack protectors on a per-function basis; at the time Clang had support for no_stack_protector but GCC did not. This was fixed in gcc-11. Now that the function attribute is available, let's start using it. Callers of boot_init_stack_canary need to use this function attribute unless they're compiled with -fno-stack-protector, otherwise the canary stored in the stack slot of the caller will differ upon the call to boot_init_stack_canary. This will lead to a call to __stack_chk_fail() then panic.

We started disabling '-Warray-bounds' for gcc-12 originally on s390, because it resulted in some warnings that weren't realistically fixable (commit 8b202ee2: "s390: disable -Warray-bounds"). That s390-specific issue was then found to be less common elsewhere, but generic (see f0be87c4: "gcc-12: disable '-Warray-bounds' universally for now"), and then later expanded the version check was expanded to gcc-11 (5a41237a: "gcc: disable -Warray-bounds for gcc-11 too"). And it turns out that I was much too optimistic in thinking that it's all going to go away, and here we are with gcc-13 showing all the same issues. So instead of expanding this one version at a time, let's just disable it for gcc-11+, and put an end limit to it only when we actually find a solution. Yes, I'm sure some of this is because the kernel just does odd things (like our "container_of()" use, but also knowingly playing games with things like linker tables and array layouts). And yes, some of the warnings are likely signs of real bugs, but when there are hundreds of false positives, that doesn't really help. Oh well. Signed-off-by:

Forwarding variadic argument lists can't be done by passing a va_list to a function with signature foo(...) (as panic() has). It ends up interpreting the va_list itself as a single argument instead of iterating it. printf() happily accepts it of course, leading to corrupt output. Convert panic_show_mem() to a macro to allow forwarding the arguments. The function is trivial enough that it's easier than trying to introduce a vpanic() variant. Signed-off-by:

Both build_all_zonelists() and page_alloc_init_cpuhp() must be called after SMP setup is complete but before the page allocator is set up. Still, they both are a part of memory management initialization, so move them to mm_init(). Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230321170513.2401534-7-rppt@kernel.org Signed-off-by:

The page_alloc_init() name is really misleading because all this function does is sets up CPU hotplug callbacks for the page allocator. Rename it to page_alloc_init_cpuhp() so that name will reflect what the function does. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230321170513.2401534-6-rppt@kernel.org Signed-off-by:

Full Hyper-V initialization, including support for hypercalls, is done as an apic_post_init callback via late_time_init(). mem_encrypt_init() needs to make hypercalls when it marks swiotlb memory as decrypted. But mem_encrypt_init() is currently called a few lines before late_time_init(), so the hypercalls don't work. Fix this by moving mem_encrypt_init() after late_time_init() and related clock initializations. The intervening initializations don't do any I/O that requires the swiotlb, so moving mem_encrypt_init() slightly later has no impact. Signed-off-by:

Change no bootconfig data error message if user do not specify 'bootconfig' option but CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE=y. With CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE=y, the kernel proceeds bootconfig check even if user does not specify 'bootconfig' option. So the current error message is confusing. Let's show just an information message to notice skipping the bootconfig in that case.

CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED was added in commit 88a22c98 ("CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED") in 2006 to allow systems with older versions of some tools (i.e. Fedora 3's version of udev) to boot properly. Four years later, in 2010, the option was attempted to be removed as most of userspace should have been fixed up properly by then, but some kernel developers clung to those old systems and refused to update, so we added CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 in commit e52eec13 ("SYSFS: Allow boot time switching between deprecated and modern sysfs layout") to allow them to continue to boot properly, and we allowed a boot time parameter to be used to switch back to the old format if needed. Over time, the logic that was covered under these config options was slowly removed from individual driver subsystems successfully, removed, and the only thing that is now left in the kernel are some changes in the block layer's representation in sysfs where real directories are used instead of symlinks like normal. Because the original changes were done to userspace tools in 2006, and all distros that use those tools are long end-of-life, and older non-udev-based systems do not care about the block layer's sysfs representation, it is time to finally remove this old logic and the config entries from the kernel.

When a kernel is built with CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED=y, the intention will normally be to unconditionally provide the specified kernel-boot arguments to the kernel, as opposed to requiring a separately provided bootconfig parameter. Therefore, make the BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE Kconfig option default to y in kernels built with CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED=y. The old semantics may be obtained by manually overriding this default.

The BOOT_CONFIG family of Kconfig options allows a bootconfig file containing kernel boot parameters to be embedded into an initrd or into the kernel itself. This can be extremely useful when deploying kernels in cases where some of the boot parameters depend on the kernel version rather than on the server hardware, firmware, or workload. Unfortunately, the "bootconfig" kernel parameter must be specified in order to cause the kernel to look for the embedded bootconfig file, and it clearly does not help to embed this "bootconfig" kernel parameter into that file. Therefore, provide a new BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE Kconfig option that causes the kernel to act as if the "bootconfig" kernel parameter had been specified. In other words, kernels built with CONFIG_BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE=y will look for the embedded bootconfig file even when the "bootconfig" kernel parameter is omitted. This permits kernel-version-dependent kernel boot parameters to be embedded into the kernel image without the need to (for example) update large numbers of boot loaders.
