The kernel allows arches to select between inline and outline
implementations of the copy_{from,to}_user() by defining individual
INLINE_COPY_FROM_USER and INLINE_COPY_TO_USER, correspondingly. However,
all arches enable or disable them always together.
Without the real use-case for one helper being inlined while the other
outlined, having independent controls is excessive and error prone.
Switch the codebase to the single unified INLINE_COPY_USER control.

The original commit 8c30b0018f9d ("openrisc: Add jump label support")
copies from arm64 and does not properly consider how icache invalidation
on remote cores works in OpenRISC. On OpenRISC remote icaches need to
be invalidated otherwise static key's may remain state after updating.
Fix SMP cache syncing by:
1. Properly invalidate remote core icaches on SMP systems by using
icache_all_inv. The old code uses kick_all_cpus_sync() which runs a
no-op IPI function call on remote CPU's which does execute a lot of
code and flushes many cache lines in the process, but does not flush
all and it's not correct on OpenRISC.
2. For architectures that do not have WRITETHROUGH caches be sure
to flush the dcache after patching.
To test this I first reproduced the issue using a custom test module
[0]. The test confirmed that some icache lines maintained stale
static_key code sequences after calling static_branch_enable(). After
this patch there are no longer jump_label coherency issues.

Add functions to invalidate all cache lines which we will use for
static_key patching.
On OpenRISC there is no instruction to invalidate an entire cache so we
loop and invalidate cache lines one by one. This is not extremely
expensive on OpenRISC as we usually have only a few hundred cache lines.
I considered using the invalidate cache page or range functions.
However, tracking which ranges need invalidation would have been more
expensive than flushing all pages.

On real hardware, panic and machine reboot may not flush hardware cache
to memory. This means the persistent ring buffer, which relies on a
coherent state of memory, may not have its events written to the buffer
and they may be lost. Moreover, there may be inconsistency with the
counters which are used for validation of the integrity of the
persistent ring buffer which may cause all data to be discarded.
To avoid this issue, stop recording of the ring buffer on panic and
flush the cache of the ring buffer's memory.

Reduce 22 declarations of empty_zero_page to 3 and 23 declarations of
ZERO_PAGE() to 4.
Every architecture defines empty_zero_page that way or another, but for the
most of them it is always a page aligned page in BSS and most definitions
of ZERO_PAGE do virt_to_page(empty_zero_page).
Move Linus vetted x86 definition of empty_zero_page and ZERO_PAGE() to the
core MM and drop these definitions in architectures that do not implement
colored zero page (MIPS and s390).
ZERO_PAGE() remains a macro because turning it to a wrapper for a static
inline causes severe pain in header dependencies.
For the most part the change is mechanical, with these being noteworthy:
* alpha: aliased empty_zero_page with ZERO_PGE that was also used for boot
parameters. Switching to a generic empty_zero_page removes the aliasing
and keeps ZERO_PGE for boot parameters only
* arm64: uses __pa_symbol() in ZERO_PAGE() so that definition of
ZERO_PAGE() is kept intact.
* m68k/parisc/um: allocated empty_zero_page from memblock,
although they do not support zero page coloring and having it in BSS
will work fine.
* sparc64 can have empty_zero_page in BSS rather allocate it, but it
can't use virt_to_page() for BSS. Keep it's definition of ZERO_PAGE()
but instead of allocating it, make mem_map_zero point to
empty_zero_page.
* sh: used empty_zero_page for boot parameters at the very early boot.
Rename the parameters page to boot_params_page and let sh use the generic
empty_zero_page.
* hexagon: had an amusing comment about empty_zero_page
/* A handy thing to have if one has the RAM. Declared in head.S */
that unfortunately had to go :)

This warning was reported by the kernel test robot:
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: __set_fixmap+0x84 (section: .text.unlikely) -> map_page.isra.0 (section: .init.text)
With commit 4735037b5d9b ("openrisc: Add text patching API support") the
__set_fixmap function was moved out of the .init.text section.
However, the map_page helper that it uses was not moved. This was not
noticed on gcc 15.1.0 where map_page gets inlined unlike lkp@intel.com
which uses gcc 10.5.0.
Fix this by also moving the map_page helper function out of the init
section.

Commit 3e86e4d74c04 ("kbuild: keep .modinfo section in
vmlinux.unstripped") added .modinfo to ELF_DETAILS while removing it
from COMMON_DISCARDS, as it was needed in vmlinux.unstripped and
ELF_DETAILS was present in all architecture specific vmlinux linker
scripts. While this shuffle is fine for vmlinux, ELF_DETAILS and
COMMON_DISCARDS may be used by other linker scripts, such as the s390
and x86 compressed boot images, which may not expect to have a .modinfo
section. In certain circumstances, this could result in a bootloader
failing to load the compressed kernel [1].
Commit ddc6cbef3ef1 ("s390/boot/vmlinux.lds.S: Ensure bzImage ends with
SecureBoot trailer") recently addressed this for the s390 bzImage but
the same bug remains for arm, parisc, and x86. The presence of .modinfo
in the x86 bzImage was the root cause of the issue worked around with
commit d50f21091358 ("kbuild: align modinfo section for Secureboot
Authenticode EDK2 compat"). misc.c in arch/x86/boot/compressed includes
lib/decompress_unzstd.c, which in turn includes lib/xxhash.c and its
MODULE_LICENSE / MODULE_DESCRIPTION macros due to the STATIC definition.
Split .modinfo out from ELF_DETAILS into its own macro and handle it in
all vmlinux linker scripts. Discard .modinfo in the places where it was
previously being discarded from being in COMMON_DISCARDS, as it has
never been necessary in those uses.

To initialize node, zone and memory map data structures every architecture
calls free_area_init() during setup_arch() and passes it an array of zone
limits.
Beside code duplication it creates "interesting" ordering cases between
allocation and initialization of hugetlb and the memory map. Some
architectures allocate hugetlb pages very early in setup_arch() in certain
cases, some only create hugetlb CMA areas in setup_arch() and sometimes
hugetlb allocations happen mm_core_init().
With arch_zone_limits_init() helper available now on all architectures it
is no longer necessary to call free_area_init() from architecture setup
code. Rather core MM initialization can call arch_zone_limits_init() in a
single place.
This allows to unify ordering of hugetlb vs memory map allocation and
initialization.
Remove the call to free_area_init() from architecture specific code and
place it in a new mm_core_init_early() function that is called immediately
after setup_arch().
After this refactoring it is possible to consolidate hugetlb allocations
and eliminate differences in ordering of hugetlb and memory map
initialization among different architectures.
As the first step of this consolidation move hugetlb_bootmem_alloc() to
mm_core_early_init().

Move calculations of zone limits to a dedicated arch_zone_limits_init()
function.
Later MM core will use this function as an architecture specific callback
during nodes and zones initialization and thus there won't be a need to
call free_area_init() from every architecture.

The softlockup_panic sysctl is currently a binary option: panic
immediately or never panic on soft lockups.
Panicking on any soft lockup, regardless of duration, can be overly
aggressive for brief stalls that may be caused by legitimate operations.
Conversely, never panicking may allow severe system hangs to persist
undetected.
Extend softlockup_panic to accept an integer threshold, allowing the
kernel to panic only when the normalized lockup duration exceeds N
watchdog threshold periods. This provides finer-grained control to
distinguish between transient delays and persistent system failures.
The accepted values are:
- 0: Don't panic (unchanged)
- 1: Panic when duration >= 1 * threshold (20s default, original behavior)
- N > 1: Panic when duration >= N * threshold (e.g., 2 = 40s, 3 = 60s.)
The original behavior is preserved for values 0 and 1, maintaining full
backward compatibility while allowing systems to tolerate brief lockups
while still catching severe, persistent hangs.

Patch series "mm: folio_zero_user: clear page ranges", v11.
This series adds clearing of contiguous page ranges for hugepages.
The series improves on the current discontiguous clearing approach in two
ways:
- clear pages in a contiguous fashion.
- use batched clearing via clear_pages() wherever exposed.
The first is useful because it allows us to make much better use of
hardware prefetchers.
The second, enables advertising the real extent to the processor. Where
specific instructions support it (ex. string instructions on x86; "mops"
on arm64 etc), a processor can optimize based on this because, instead of
seeing a sequence of 8-byte stores, or a sequence of 4KB pages, it sees a
larger unit being operated on.
For instance, AMD Zen uarchs (for extents larger than LLC-size) switch to
a mode where they start eliding cacheline allocation. This is helpful not
just because it results in higher bandwidth, but also because now the
cache is not evicting useful cachelines and replacing them with zeroes.
Demand faulting a 64GB region shows performance improvement:
$ perf bench mem mmap -p $pg-sz -f demand -s 64GB -l 5
baseline +series
(GBps +- %stdev) (GBps +- %stdev)
pg-sz=2MB 11.76 +- 1.10% 25.34 +- 1.18% [*] +115.47% preempt=*
pg-sz=1GB 24.85 +- 2.41% 39.22 +- 2.32% + 57.82% preempt=none|voluntary
pg-sz=1GB (similar) 52.73 +- 0.20% [#] +112.19% preempt=full|lazy
[*] This improvement is because switching to sequential clearing
allows the hardware prefetchers to do a much better job.
[#] For pg-sz=1GB a large part of the improvement is because of the
cacheline elision mentioned above. preempt=full|lazy improves upon
that because, not needing explicit invocations of cond_resched() to
ensure reasonable preemption latency, it can clear the full extent
as a single unit. In comparison the maximum extent used for
preempt=none|voluntary is PROCESS_PAGES_NON_PREEMPT_BATCH (32MB).
When provided the full extent the processor forgoes allocating
cachelines on this path almost entirely.
(The hope is that eventually, in the fullness of time, the lazy
preemption model will be able to do the same job that none or
voluntary models are used for, allowing us to do away with
cond_resched().)
Raghavendra also tested previous version of the series on AMD Genoa and
sees similar improvement [1] with preempt=lazy.
$ perf bench mem map -p $page-size -f populate -s 64GB -l 10
base patched change
pg-sz=2MB 12.731939 GB/sec 26.304263 GB/sec 106.6%
pg-sz=1GB 26.232423 GB/sec 61.174836 GB/sec 133.2%
This patch (of 8):
Let's drop all variants that effectively map to clear_page() and provide
it in a generic variant instead.
We'll use the macro clear_user_page to indicate whether an architecture
provides it's own variant.
Also, clear_user_page() is only called from the generic variant of
clear_user_highpage(), so define it only if the architecture does not
provide a clear_user_highpage(). And, for simplicity define it in
linux/highmem.h.
Note that for parisc, clear_page() and clear_user_page() map to
clear_page_asm(), so we can just get rid of the custom clear_user_page()
implementation. There is a clear_user_page_asm() function on parisc, that
seems to be unused. Not sure what's up with that.

When compiling a driver written for MIPS on OpenRISC that uses the nop()
function, it fails due to the following error:
drivers/watchdog/pic32-wdt.c: Assembler messages:
drivers/watchdog/pic32-wdt.c:125: Error: unrecognized instruction `nop'
The driver currently uses the generic version of nop() from
include/asm-generic/barrier.h:
#ifndef nop
#define nop() asm volatile ("nop")
#endif
Let's fix this on OpenRISC by defining an architecture-specific version
of nop().
This was tested by performing an allmodconfig openrisc cross compile on
an aarch64 host.

Add a multicore configuration for the Terasic de0 nano FPGA development
board. This SoC runs 2 OpenRISC CPUs at 50Mhz with 32MB ram, UART for
console and GPIOs for LEDs.
This FPGA SoC is based on the simple-smp reference board and brings in
devices from the de0 nano common DTSI file.
A default config is added that brings together the device tree and
driver setup.

Split out the common memory, CPU and PIC definitions of the simple SMP
system to a DTSI file which we will later use for our De0 Nano multicore
board device tree. We also take this opportunity to swich underscores
to dashes as that seems to be the more common convention for DTS files.

Commit c05671846451 ("openrisc: sleep instead of spin on secondary
wait") fixed OpenRISC SMP Linux for QEMU. However, stability was never
achieved on FPGA development boards. This is because the above patch
has a step to unmask IPIs on non-boot cpu's but on hardware without
power management, IPIs remain masked.
This meant that IPI's were never actually working on the simple SMP
systems we run on development boards. The systems booted but stability
was very suspect.
Add the ability to unmask IPI's on the non-boot cores. This is done by
making the OMPIC IRQs proper percpu IRQs. We can then use the
enabled_percpu_irq() to unmask IRQ on the non-boot cpus.
Update the or1k PIC driver to use a flow handler that can switch between
percpu and the configured level or edge flow handlers at runtime.
This mechanism is inspired by that done in the J-Core AIC driver.

The de0 nano from Terasic is an FPGA board that we use in the OpenRISC
community to test OpenRISC configurations. Add a base configuration for
the board that runs an OpenRISC CPU at 50Mhz with 32MB ram, UART for
console and some GPIOs for LEDs and switches.
There is an older version of this floating around that defines all of
the hardware on the board including SPI's, flash devices, sram, ADCs
etc. Eventually it would be good to get the full version upstream
but for now I think a minimal board is good to start with.

removed the obsolete EXT3_CONFIG options, since it had been over a
decade since fs/ext3 had been removed. Unfortunately, there were a
number of defconfigs that still used CONFIG_EXT3_FS which the cleanup
commit didn't fix up. This led to a large number of defconfig test
builds to fail. Oops.
