We already had the implementation for __udiv_qrnnd (unsigned divide for
multi-precision arithmetic) as part of the alpha math emulation code.
But you can disable the math emulation code - even if you shouldn't -
and then the MPI code that actually wants this functionality (and is
needed by various crypto functions) will fail to build.
So move the extended-precision divide code to be a regular library
function, just like all the regular division code is. That way ie is
available regardless of math-emulation.

The Jensen IO functions are overly copmplicated because some of the IO
addresses refer to special 'local IO' ports, and they get accessed
differently.
That then makes gcc not actually inline them, and since they were marked
"extern inline" when included through the regular <asm/io.h> path, and
then only marked "inline" when included from sys_jensen.c, you never
necessarily got a body for the IO functions at all.
The intent of the sys_jensen.c code is to actually get the non-inlined
copy generated, so remove the 'inline' from the magic macro that is
supposed to sort this all out.
Also, do not mix 'extern inline' functions (that may or may not be
inlined and will not generate a function body if they are not) with
'static inline' (that _will_ generate a function body when not inlined).
Because gcc will complain about this situation:
error: ‘jensen_bus_outb’ is static but used in inline function ‘jensen_outb’ which is not static
because gcc basically doesn't know whether to generate a body for that
static inline function or not for that call site.
So make all of these use that __EXTERN_INLINE marker. Gcc will
generally not inline these things on use, and then generate the function
body out-of-line in sys_jensen.c.
This makes the core IO functions build for the alpha Jensen config.
Not that the rest then builds, because it turns out Jensen also doesn't
enable PCI, which then makes other drievrs very unhappy, but that's a
separate issue.

Pull siginfo si_trapno updates from Eric Biederman:
"The full set of si_trapno changes was not appropriate as a fix for the
newly added SIGTRAP TRAP_PERF, and so I postponed the rest of the
related cleanups.
This is the rest of the cleanups for si_trapno that reduces it from
being a really weird arch special case that is expect to be always
present (but isn't) on the architectures that support it to being yet
another field in the _sigfault union of struct siginfo.
The changes have been reviewed and marinated in linux-next. With the
removal of this awkward special case new code (like SIGTRAP TRAP_PERF)
that works across architectures should be easier to write and
maintain"

SOCK_SNDBUF_LOCK and SOCK_RCVBUF_LOCK flags disable automatic socket
buffers adjustment done by kernel (see tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() and
tcp_sndbuf_expand()). If we've just created a new socket this adjustment
is enabled on it, but if one changes the socket buffer size by
setsockopt(SO_{SND,RCV}BUF*) it becomes disabled.
CRIU needs to call setsockopt(SO_{SND,RCV}BUF*) on each socket on
restore as it first needs to increase buffer sizes for packet queues
restore and second it needs to restore back original buffer sizes. So
after CRIU restore all sockets become non-auto-adjustable, which can
decrease network performance of restored applications significantly.
CRIU need to be able to restore sockets with enabled/disabled adjustment
to the same state it was before dump, so let's add special setsockopt
for it.
Let's also export SOCK_SNDBUF_LOCK and SOCK_RCVBUF_LOCK flags to uAPI so
that using these interface one can reenable automatic socket buffer
adjustment on their sockets.

since 889b3c1245de48ed0cacf7aebb25c489d3e4a3e9, CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING
is removed entirely and inline is always defined to `inline __gnu_inline
__inline_maybe_unused notrace` in compiler_types.h
Besides, undef inline here also means it never use
__attribute__((__gnu_inline__)), so `extern inline` function can never
be defined header files, otherwise multiple definition errors will
happen, e.g. if multiple translation units use alpha/include/asm/pal.h
will report multiple definitions, because there are many extern inline
function definitions in this header.
``` c
extern inline TYPE NAME(void) \
{ \
register TYPE __r0 __asm__("$0"); \
__asm__ __volatile__( \
...
```
Ofc, it is also ok to remove `extern` in `extern inline` here, then all
of iso c99 and gnuc99/89 are ok, but there are also other alpha headers
have such function definitions.

While reviewing the signal handlers on alpha it became clear that
si_trapno is only set to a non-zero value when sending SIGFPE and when
sending SITGRAP with si_code TRAP_UNK.
Add send_sig_fault_trapno and send SIGTRAP TRAP_UNK, and SIGFPE with it.
Remove the define of __ARCH_SI_TRAPNO and remove the always zero
si_trapno parameter from send_sig_fault and force_sig_fault.

Pull asm/unaligned.h unification from Arnd Bergmann:
"Unify asm/unaligned.h around struct helper
The get_unaligned()/put_unaligned() helpers are traditionally
architecture specific, with the two main variants being the
"access-ok.h" version that assumes unaligned pointer accesses always
work on a particular architecture, and the "le-struct.h" version that
casts the data to a byte aligned type before dereferencing, for
architectures that cannot always do unaligned accesses in hardware.
Based on the discussion linked below, it appears that the access-ok
version is not realiable on any architecture, but the struct version
probably has no downsides. This series changes the code to use the
same implementation on all architectures, addressing the few
exceptions separately"

Currently most platforms define pmd_pgtable() as pmd_page() duplicating
the same code all over. Instead just define a default value i.e
pmd_page() for pmd_pgtable() and let platforms override when required via
<asm/pgtable.h>. All the existing platform that override pmd_pgtable()
have been moved into their respective <asm/pgtable.h> header in order to
precede before the new generic definition. This makes it much cleaner
with reduced code.

same code all over. Instead just define a generic default value (i.e 0UL)
for FIRST_USER_ADDRESS and let the platforms override when required. This
makes it much cleaner with reduced code.
The default FIRST_USER_ADDRESS here would be skipped in <linux/pgtable.h>
when the given platform overrides its value via <asm/pgtable.h>.

I. Background: Sparse Memory Mappings
When we manage sparse memory mappings dynamically in user space - also
sometimes involving MAP_NORESERVE - we want to dynamically populate/
discard memory inside such a sparse memory region. Example users are
hypervisors (especially implementing memory ballooning or similar
technologies like virtio-mem) and memory allocators. In addition, we want
to fail in a nice way (instead of generating SIGBUS) if populating does
not succeed because we are out of backend memory (which can happen easily
with file-based mappings, especially tmpfs and hugetlbfs).
While MADV_DONTNEED, MADV_REMOVE and FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE allow for
reliably discarding memory for most mapping types, there is no generic
approach to populate page tables and preallocate memory.
Although mmap() supports MAP_POPULATE, it is not applicable to the concept
of sparse memory mappings, where we want to populate/discard dynamically
and avoid expensive/problematic remappings. In addition, we never
actually report errors during the final populate phase - it is best-effort
only.
fallocate() can be used to preallocate file-based memory and fail in a
safe way. However, it cannot really be used for any private mappings on
anonymous files via memfd due to COW semantics. In addition, fallocate()
does not actually populate page tables, so we still always get pagefaults
on first access - which is sometimes undesired (i.e., real-time workloads)
and requires real prefaulting of page tables, not just a preallocation of
backend storage. There might be interesting use cases for sparse memory
regions along with mlockall(MCL_ONFAULT) which fallocate() cannot satisfy
as it does not prefault page tables.
II. On preallcoation/prefaulting from user space
Because we don't have a proper interface, what applications (like QEMU and
databases) end up doing is touching (i.e., reading+writing one byte to not
overwrite existing data) all individual pages.
However, that approach
1) Can result in wear on storage backing, because we end up reading/writing
each page; this is especially a problem for dax/pmem.
2) Can result in mmap_sem contention when prefaulting via multiple
threads.
3) Requires expensive signal handling, especially to catch SIGBUS in case
of hugetlbfs/shmem/file-backed memory. For example, this is
problematic in hypervisors like QEMU where SIGBUS handlers might already
be used by other subsystems concurrently to e.g, handle hardware errors.
"Simply" doing preallocation concurrently from other thread is not that
easy.
III. On MADV_WILLNEED
Extending MADV_WILLNEED is not an option because
1. It would change the semantics: "Expect access in the near future." and
"might be a good idea to read some pages" vs. "Definitely populate/
preallocate all memory and definitely fail on errors.".
2. Existing users (like virtio-balloon in QEMU when deflating the balloon)
don't want populate/prealloc semantics. They treat this rather as a hint
to give a little performance boost without too much overhead - and don't
expect that a lot of memory might get consumed or a lot of time
might be spent.
IV. MADV_POPULATE_READ and MADV_POPULATE_WRITE
Let's introduce MADV_POPULATE_READ and MADV_POPULATE_WRITE, inspired by
MAP_POPULATE, with the following semantics:
1. MADV_POPULATE_READ can be used to prefault page tables just like
manually reading each individual page. This will not break any COW
mappings. The shared zero page might get mapped and no backend storage
might get preallocated -- allocation might be deferred to
write-fault time. Especially shared file mappings require an explicit
fallocate() upfront to actually preallocate backend memory (blocks in
the file system) in case the file might have holes.
2. If MADV_POPULATE_READ succeeds, all page tables have been populated
(prefaulted) readable once.
3. MADV_POPULATE_WRITE can be used to preallocate backend memory and
prefault page tables just like manually writing (or
reading+writing) each individual page. This will break any COW
mappings -- e.g., the shared zeropage is never populated.
4. If MADV_POPULATE_WRITE succeeds, all page tables have been populated
(prefaulted) writable once.
5. MADV_POPULATE_READ and MADV_POPULATE_WRITE cannot be applied to special
mappings marked with VM_PFNMAP and VM_IO. Also, proper access
permissions (e.g., PROT_READ, PROT_WRITE) are required. If any such
mapping is encountered, madvise() fails with -EINVAL.
6. If MADV_POPULATE_READ or MADV_POPULATE_WRITE fails, some page tables
might have been populated.
7. MADV_POPULATE_READ and MADV_POPULATE_WRITE will return -EHWPOISON
when encountering a HW poisoned page in the range.
8. Similar to MAP_POPULATE, MADV_POPULATE_READ and MADV_POPULATE_WRITE
cannot protect from the OOM (Out Of Memory) handler killing the
process.
While the use case for MADV_POPULATE_WRITE is fairly obvious (i.e.,
preallocate memory and prefault page tables for VMs), one issue is that
whenever we prefault pages writable, the pages have to be marked dirty,
because the CPU could dirty them any time. while not a real problem for
hugetlbfs or dax/pmem, it can be a problem for shared file mappings: each
page will be marked dirty and has to be written back later when evicting.
MADV_POPULATE_READ allows for optimizing this scenario: Pre-read a whole
mapping from backend storage without marking it dirty, such that eviction
won't have to write it back. As discussed above, shared file mappings
might require an explciit fallocate() upfront to achieve
preallcoation+prepopulation.
Although sparse memory mappings are the primary use case, this will also
be useful for other preallocate/prefault use cases where MAP_POPULATE is
not desired or the semantics of MAP_POPULATE are not sufficient: as one
example, QEMU users can trigger preallocation/prefaulting of guest RAM
after the mapping was created -- and don't want errors to be silently
suppressed.
Looking at the history, MADV_POPULATE was already proposed in 2013 [1],
however, the main motivation back than was performance improvements --
which should also still be the case.
V. Single-threaded performance comparison
I did a short experiment, prefaulting page tables on completely *empty
mappings/files* and repeated the experiment 10 times. The results
correspond to the shortest execution time. In general, the performance
benefit for huge pages is negligible with small mappings.
V.1: Private mappings
POPULATE_READ and POPULATE_WRITE is fastest. Note that
Reading/POPULATE_READ will populate the shared zeropage where applicable
-- which result in short population times.
The fastest way to allocate backend storage (here: swap or huge pages) and
prefault page tables is POPULATE_WRITE.
V.2: Shared mappings
fallocate() is fastest, however, doesn't prefault page tables.
POPULATE_WRITE is faster than simple writes and read/writes.
POPULATE_READ is faster than simple reads.
Without a fd, the fastest way to allocate backend storage and prefault
page tables is POPULATE_WRITE. With an fd, the fastest way is usually
FALLOCATE+POPULATE_READ or FALLOCATE+POPULATE_WRITE respectively; one
exception are actual files: FALLOCATE+Read is slightly faster than
FALLOCATE+POPULATE_READ.
The fastest way to allocate backend storage prefault page tables is
FALLOCATE+POPULATE_WRITE -- except when dealing with actual files; then,
FALLOCATE+POPULATE_READ is fastest and won't directly mark all pages as
dirty.
