If we start validating the existence of the asm-generic side of
generated headers, this one causes a warning:
make[3]: *** No rule to make target 'arch/um/include/generated/asm/bpf_perf_event.h', needed by 'all'. Stop.
The problem is that the asm-generic header only exists for the uapi
variant, but arch/um has no uapi headers and instead uses the x86
userspace API.
Add a custom file with an explicit redirect to avoid this.

Conceptually, we want the memory mappings to always be up to date and
represent whatever is in the TLB. To ensure that, we need to sync them
over in the userspace case and for the kernel we need to process the
mappings.
The kernel will call flush_tlb_* if page table entries that were valid
before become invalid. Unfortunately, this is not the case if entries
are added.
As such, change both flush_tlb_* and set_ptes to track the memory range
that has to be synchronized. For the kernel, we need to execute a
flush_tlb_kern_* immediately but we can wait for the first page fault in
case of set_ptes. For userspace in contrast we only store that a range
of memory needs to be synced and do so whenever we switch to that
process.

The HVC update was mostly used to compress consecutive calls into one.
This is mostly relevant for userspace where it is already handled by the
syscall stub code.
Simplify the whole logic and consolidate it for both kernel and
userspace. This does remove the sequential syscall compression for the
kernel, however that shouldn't be the main factor in most runs.

There should be no need to flush the memory in flush_thread. Doing this
likely worked around some issue where memory was still incorrectly
mapped when creating or cloning an MM.
With the removal of the special clone path, that isn't relevant anymore.
However, add the flush into MM initialization so that any new userspace
MM is guaranteed to be clean.

The current LDT code has a few issues that mean it should be redone in a
different way once we always start with a fresh MM even when cloning.
In a new and better world, the kernel would just ensure its own LDT is
clear at startup. At that point, all that is needed is a simple function
to populate the LDT from another MM in arch_dup_mmap combined with some
tracking of the installed LDT entries for each MM.
Note that the old implementation was even incorrect with regard to
reading, as it copied out the LDT entries in the internal format rather
than converting them to the userspace structure.
Removal should be fine as the LDT is not used for thread-local storage
anymore.

Rework syscall handling to be platform independent. Also create a clean
split between queueing of syscalls and flushing them out, removing the
need to keep state in the code that triggers the syscalls.
The code adds syscall_data_len to the global mm_id structure. This will
be used later to allow surrounding code to track whether syscalls still
need to run and if errors occurred.

When we switch to use seccomp, we need both the signal stack and other
data (i.e. syscall information) to co-exist in the stub data. To
facilitate this, start by defining separate memory areas for the stack
and syscall data.
This moves the signal stack onto a new page as the memory area is not
sufficient to hold both signal stack and syscall information.
Only change the signal stack setup for now, as the syscall code will be
reworked later.

When signals are hard-blocked in order to do time-travel
socket processing, we set signals_blocked and then handle
SIGIO signals by setting the SIGIO bit in signals_pending.
When unblocking, we first set signals_blocked to 0, and
then handle all pending signals. We have to set it first,
so that we can again properly block/unblock inside the
unblock, if the time-travel handlers need to be processed.
Unfortunately, this is racy. We can get into this situation:
// signals_pending = SIGIO_MASK
unblock_signals_hard()
signals_blocked = 0;
if (signals_pending && signals_enabled) {
block_signals();
unblock_signals()
...
sig_handler_common(SIGIO, NULL, NULL);
sigio_handler()
...
sigio_reg_handler()
irq_do_timetravel_handler()
reg->timetravel_handler() ==
vu_req_interrupt_comm_handler()
vu_req_read_message()
vhost_user_recv_req()
vhost_user_recv()
vhost_user_recv_header()
// reads 12 bytes header of
// 20 bytes message
<-- receive SIGIO here <--
sig_handler()
int enabled = signals_enabled; // 1
if ((signals_blocked || !enabled) && (sig == SIGIO)) {
if (!signals_blocked && time_travel_mode == TT_MODE_EXTERNAL)
sigio_run_timetravel_handlers()
_sigio_handler()
sigio_reg_handler()
... as above ...
vhost_user_recv_header()
// reads 8 bytes that were message payload
// as if it were header - but aborts since
// it then gets -EAGAIN
...
--> end signal handler -->
// continue in vhost_user_recv()
// full_read() for 8 bytes payload busy loops
// entire process hangs here
Conceptually, to fix this, we need to ensure that the
signal handler cannot run while we hard-unblock signals.
The thing that makes this more complex is that we can be
doing hard-block/unblock while unblocking. Introduce a
new signals_blocked_pending variable that we can keep at
non-zero as long as pending signals are being processed,
then we only need to ensure it's decremented safely and
the signal handler will only increment it if it's already
non-zero (or signals_blocked is set, of course.)
Note also that only the outermost call to hard-unblock is
allowed to decrement signals_blocked_pending, since it
could otherwise reach zero in an inner call, and leave
the same race happening if the timetravel_handler loops,
but that's basically required of it.

With external time travel, a LOT of message can end up
being exchanged on the socket, taking a significant
amount of time just to do that.
Add a new shared memory optimisation to that, where a
number of changes are made:
- the controller sends a client ID and a shared memory FD
(and a logging FD we don't use) in the ACK message to
the initial START
- the shared memory holds the current time and the
free_until value, so that there's no need to exchange
messages for that
- if the client that's running has shared memory support,
any client (the running one included) can request the
next time it wants to run inside the shared memory,
rather than sending a message, by also updating the
free_until value
- when shared memory is enabled, RUN/WAIT messages no
longer have an ACK, further cutting down on messages
Together, this can reduce the number of messages very
significantly, and reduce overall test/simulation run time.

Add a message type to the time-travel protocol to broadcast
a small (64-bit) value to all participants in a simulation.
The main use case is to have an identical message come to
all participants in a simulation, e.g. to separate out logs
for different tests running in a single simulation.
Down in the guts of time_travel_handle_message() we can't
use printk() and not even printk_deferred(), so just store
the message and print it at the start of the userspace()
function.
Unfortunately this means that other prints in the kernel
can actually bypass the message, but in most cases where
this is used, for example to separate test logs, userspace
will be involved. Also, even if we could use
printk_deferred(), we'd still need to flush it out in the
userspace() function since otherwise userspace messages
might cross it.
As a result, this is a reasonable compromise, there's no
need to have any core changes and it solves the main use
case we have for it.

Current calculation of max_low_pfn is introduced in commit af84eab208
("[PATCH] uml: fix LVM crash"). It is intended to set max_low_pfn to the
same value as max_pfn.
But I am not sure why the max_pfn is set to totalram_pages, which
represents the number of usable pages in system instead of an absolute
page frame number. (The change history stops there.)
While we have already calculate it in setup_physmem(), so not necessary
to do it again.
Also this would help changing totalram_pages accounting, since we plan
to move the accounting into __free_pages_core(). With this change,
totalram_pages may not represent the total usable pages at this point,
since some pages would be deferred initialized.

At present, Rust in the kernel only supports 64-bit x86, so UML has
followed suit. However, it's significantly easier to support 32-bit i386
on UML than on bare metal, as UML does not use the -mregparm option
(which alters the ABI), which is not yet supported by rustc[1].
Add support for CONFIG_RUST on um/i386, by adding a new target config to
generate_rust_target, and replacing various checks on CONFIG_X86_64 to
also support CONFIG_X86_32.
We still use generate_rust_target, rather than a built-in rustc target,
in order to match x86_64, provide a future place for -mregparm, and more
easily disable floating point instructions.
With these changes, the KUnit tests pass with:
kunit.py run --make_options LLVM=1 --kconfig_add CONFIG_RUST=y
--kconfig_add CONFIG_64BIT=n --kconfig_add CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=n
An earlier version of these changes was proposed on the Rust-for-Linux
github[2].

When in time-travel mode (infinite-cpu or external) time should not pass
for writing to the console. As such, it makes sense to put the FD for
the output side into blocking mode and simply let any write to it hang.
If we did not do this, then time could pass waiting for the console to
become writable again. This is not desirable as it has random effects on
the clock between runs.
Implement this by duplicating the FD if output is active in a relevant
mode and setting the duplicate to be blocking. This avoids changing the
input channel to be blocking should it exists. After this, use the
blocking FD for all write operations and do not allocate an IRQ it is
set.
Without time-travel mode fd_out will always match fd_in and IRQs are
registered.

When in time-travel mode, the eventfd events are read even when signals
are blocked as SIGIO still needs to be processed. In this case, the
event is cleared on the eventfd but the IRQ still needs to be fired
later.
We did already ensure that the SIGIO handler is run again. However, the
FDs are configured to be level triggered, so that eventfd will not
notify again. As such, add some logic to mark the IRQ as pending and
process it at the next opportunity.
To avoid duplication, reuse the logic used for the suspend/resume case.
This does not really change anything except for delaying running the
IRQs with timetravel_handler at a slightly later point in time (and
possibly running non-timetravel IRQs that shouldn't happen earlier).
While at it, move marking as pending into irq_event_handler as that is
the more logical place for it to happen.

Move the nonrot flag into the queue_limits feature field so that it can
be set atomically with the queue frozen.
Use the chance to switch to defaulting to non-rotational and require
the driver to opt into rotational, which matches the polarity of the
sysfs interface.
For the z2ram, ps3vram, 2x memstick, ubiblock and dcssblk the new
rotational flag is not set as they clearly are not rotational despite
this being a behavior change. There are some other drivers that
unconditionally set the rotational flag to keep the existing behavior
as they arguably can be used on rotational devices even if that is
probably not their main use today (e.g. virtio_blk and drbd).
The flag is automatically inherited in blk_stack_limits matching the
existing behavior in dm and md.

Move the cache control settings into the queue_limits so that the flags
can be set atomically with the device queue frozen.
Add new features and flags field for the driver set flags, and internal
(usually sysfs-controlled) flags in the block layer. Note that we'll
eventually remove enough field from queue_limits to bring it back to the
previous size.
The disable flag is inverted compared to the previous meaning, which
means it now survives a rescan, similar to the max_sectors and
max_discard_sectors user limits.
The FLUSH and FUA flags are now inherited by blk_stack_limits, which
simplified the code in dm a lot, but also causes a slight behavior
change in that dm-switch and dm-unstripe now advertise a write cache
despite setting num_flush_bios to 0. The I/O path will handle this
gracefully, but as far as I can tell the lack of num_flush_bios
and thus flush support is a pre-existing data integrity bug in those
targets that really needs fixing, after which a non-zero num_flush_bios
should be required in dm for targets that map to underlying devices.

A few drivers optimistically try to support discard, write zeroes and
secure erase and disable the features from the I/O completion handler
if the hardware can't support them. This disable can't be done using
the atomic queue limits API because the I/O completion handlers can't
take sleeping locks or freeze the queue. Keep the existing clearing

Pull Kbuild updates from Masahiro Yamada:
- Avoid 'constexpr', which is a keyword in C23
- Allow 'dtbs_check' and 'dt_compatible_check' run independently of
'dt_binding_check'
- Fix weak references to avoid GOT entries in position-independent code
generation
- Convert the last use of 'optional' property in arch/sh/Kconfig
- Remove support for the 'optional' property in Kconfig
- Remove support for Clang's ThinLTO caching, which does not work with
the .incbin directive
- Change the semantics of $(src) so it always points to the source
directory, which fixes Makefile inconsistencies between upstream and
downstream
- Fix 'make tar-pkg' for RISC-V to produce a consistent package
- Provide reasonable default coverage for objtool, sanitizers, and
profilers
- Remove redundant OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD, KASAN_SANITIZE, etc.
- Remove the last use of tristate choice in drivers/rapidio/Kconfig
- Various cleanups and fixes in Kconfig

Kbuild conventionally uses $(obj)/ for generated files, and $(src)/ for
checked-in source files. It is merely a convention without any functional
difference. In fact, $(obj) and $(src) are exactly the same, as defined
in scripts/Makefile.build:
src := $(obj)
When the kernel is built in a separate output directory, $(src) does
not accurately reflect the source directory location. While Kbuild
resolves this discrepancy by specifying VPATH=$(srctree) to search for
source files, it does not cover all cases. For example, when adding a
header search path for local headers, -I$(srctree)/$(src) is typically
passed to the compiler.
This introduces inconsistency between upstream and downstream Makefiles
because $(src) is used instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for the latter.
To address this inconsistency, this commit changes the semantics of
$(src) so that it always points to the directory in the source tree.
Going forward, the variables used in Makefiles will have the following
meanings:
$(obj) - directory in the object tree
$(src) - directory in the source tree (changed by this commit)
$(objtree) - the top of the kernel object tree
$(srctree) - the top of the kernel source tree
Consequently, $(srctree)/$(src) in upstream Makefiles need to be replaced
with $(src).
