ARC: Always use SWAPE instructions for __arch_swab32()

Since commit 67a697e7576 ("ARC: retire ARC750 support") all supported
CPUs have the 'swape' instruction.

Always use the implementation of __arch_swabe() which uses 'swape'.
ARCH_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP can not be used as that results on libcalls on
-mcpu=arc700.

As as side-effect, remove a leak of an internal kconfig symbol through
the UAPI headers.

Merge tag 'irq-core-2025-01-21' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull interrupt subsystem updates from Thomas Gleixner:

- Consolidate the machine_kexec_mask_interrupts() by providing a
generic implementation and replacing the copy & pasta orgy in the
relevant architectures.

- Prevent unconditional operations on interrupt chips during kexec
shutdown, which can trigger warnings in certain cases when the
underlying interrupt has been shut down before.

- Make the enforcement of interrupt handling in interrupt context
unconditionally available, so that it actually works for non x86
related interrupt chips. The earlier enablement for ARM GIC chips set
the required chip flag, but did not notice that the check was hidden
behind a config switch which is not selected by ARM[64].

- Decrapify the handling of deferred interrupt affinity setting.

Some interrupt chips require that affinity changes are made from the
context of handling an interrupt to avoid certain race conditions.
For x86 this was the default, but with interrupt remapping this
requirement was lifted and a flag was introduced which tells the core
code that affinity changes can be done in any context. Unrestricted
affinity changes are the default for the majority of interrupt chips.

RISCV has the requirement to add the deferred mode to one of it's
interrupt controllers, but with the original implementation this
would require to add the any context flag to all other RISC-V
interrupt chips. That's backwards, so reverse the logic and require
that chips, which need the deferred mode have to be marked
accordingly. That avoids chasing the 'sane' chips and marking them.

- Add multi-node support to the Loongarch AVEC interrupt controller
driver.

- The usual tiny cleanups, fixes and improvements all over the place.

ARC: migrate to the generic rule for built-in DTB

Commit 654102df2ac2 ("kbuild: add generic support for built-in boot
DTBs") introduced generic support for built-in DTBs.

Select GENERIC_BUILTIN_DTB to use the generic rule.

To keep consistency across architectures, this commit also renames
CONFIG_ARC_BUILTIN_DTB_NAME to CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB_NAME.

Now, "nsim_700" is the default value for CONFIG_BUILTIN_DTB_NAME, rather
than a fallback in case it is empty.

Commit d71e629bed5b ("ARC: build: disallow invalid PAE40 + 4K page config")
reworks the build dependencies for ARC_HAS_PAE40, and accidentally refers
to the non-existing config option MMU_V4 rather than the intended option
ARC_MMU_V4. Note the missing prefix in the name here.

ARC: build: disallow invalid PAE40 + 4K page config

The config option being built was
| CONFIG_ARC_MMU_V4=y
| CONFIG_ARC_PAGE_SIZE_4K=y
| CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y
| CONFIG_ARC_HAS_PAE40=y

This was hitting

ARC: build: disallow invalid PAE40 + 4K page config

The config option being built was
| CONFIG_ARC_MMU_V4=y
| CONFIG_ARC_PAGE_SIZE_4K=y
| CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y
| CONFIG_ARC_HAS_PAE40=y

This was hitting a BUILD_BUG_ON() since a 4K page can't hoist 1k, 8-byte
PTE entries (8 byte due to PAE40). BUILD_BUG_ON() is a good last ditch
resort, but such a config needs to be disallowed explicitly in Kconfig.

Side-note: the actual fix is single liner dependency, but while at it
cleaned out a few things:
- 4K dependency on MMU v3 or v4 is always true, since 288ff7de62af09
("ARC: retire MMUv1 and MMUv2 support")
- PAE40 dependency in on MMU ver not really ISA, although that follows
eventually.

We've added 119 non-merge commits during the last 14 day(s) which contain
a total of 134 files changed, 9462 insertions(+), 4742 deletions(-).

The main changes are:

1) Add BPF JIT support for 32-bit ARCv2 processors, from Shahab Vahedi.

2) Add BPF range computation improvements to the verifier in particular
around XOR and OR operators, refactoring of checks for range computation
and relaxing MUL range computation so that src_reg can also be an unknown
scalar, from Cupertino Miranda.

3) Add support to attach kprobe BPF programs through kprobe_multi link in
a session mode, meaning, a BPF program is attached to both function entry
and return, the entry program can decide if the return program gets
executed and the entry program can share u64 cookie value with return
program. Session mode is a common use-case for tetragon and bpftrace,
from Jiri Olsa.

4) Fix a potential overflow in libbpf's ring__consume_n() and improve libbpf
as well as BPF selftest's struct_ops handling, from Andrii Nakryiko.

5) Improvements to BPF selftests in context of BPF gcc backend,
from Jose E. Marchesi & David Faust.

6) Migrate remaining BPF selftest tests from test_sock_addr.c to prog_test-
-style in order to retire the old test, run it in BPF CI and additionally
expand test coverage, from Jordan Rife.

7) Big batch for BPF selftest refactoring in order to remove duplicate code
around common network helpers, from Geliang Tang.

8) Another batch of improvements to BPF selftests to retire obsolete
bpf_tcp_helpers.h as everything is available vmlinux.h,
from Martin KaFai Lau.

9) Fix BPF map tear-down to not walk the map twice on free when both timer
and wq is used, from Benjamin Tissoires.

10) Fix BPF verifier assumptions about socket->sk that it can be non-NULL,
from Alexei Starovoitov.

11) Change BTF build scripts to using --btf_features for pahole v1.26+,
from Alan Maguire.

13) Fix s390 JIT to emit a barrier for BPF_FETCH instructions,
from Ilya Leoshkevich.

14) Extend TCP ->cong_control() callback in order to feed in ack and
flag parameters and allow write-access to tp->snd_cwnd_stamp
from BPF program, from Miao Xu.

15) Add support for internal-only per-CPU instructions to inline
bpf_get_smp_processor_id() helper call for arm64 and riscv64 BPF JITs,
from Puranjay Mohan.

16) Follow-up to remove the redundant ethtool.h from tooling infrastructure,
from Tushar Vyavahare.

17) Extend libbpf to support "module:<function>" syntax for tracing
programs, from Viktor Malik.

ARC: Add eBPF JIT support

This will add eBPF JIT support to the 32-bit ARCv2 processors. The
implementation is qualified by running the BPF tests on a Synopsys HSDK
board with "ARC HS38 v2.1c at 500 MHz" as the 4-core CPU.

The test_bpf.ko reports 2-10 fold improvements in execution time of its
tests. For instance:

test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:0 704 1766 2104 PASS
test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:1 120 224 260 PASS

test_bpf: #141 ALU_DIV_X: 4294967295 / 4294967295 = 1 jited:0 238 PASS
test_bpf: #141 ALU_DIV_X: 4294967295 / 4294967295 = 1 jited:1 23 PASS

test_bpf: #776 JMP32_JGE_K: all ... magnitudes jited:0 2034681 PASS
test_bpf: #776 JMP32_JGE_K: all ... magnitudes jited:1 1020022 PASS

Deployment and structure
------------------------
The related codes are added to "arch/arc/net":

- bpf_jit.h -- The interface that a back-end translator must provide
- bpf_jit_core.c -- Knows how to handle the input eBPF byte stream
- bpf_jit_arcv2.c -- The back-end code that knows the translation logic

The bpf_int_jit_compile() at the end of bpf_jit_core.c is the entrance
to the whole process. Normally, the translation is done in one pass,
namely the "normal pass". In case some relocations are not known during
this pass, some data (arc_jit_data) is allocated for the next pass to
come. This possible next (and last) pass is called the "extra pass".

1. Normal pass # The necessary pass
1a. Dry run # Get the whole JIT length, epilogue offset, etc.
1b. Emit phase # Allocate memory and start emitting instructions
2. Extra pass # Only needed if there are relocations to be fixed
2a. Patch relocations

Support status
--------------
The JIT compiler supports BPF instructions up to "cpu=v4". However, it
does not yet provide support for:

- Tail calls
- Atomic operations
- 64-bit division/remainder
- BPF_PROBE_MEM* (exception table)

The result of "test_bpf" test suite on an HSDK board is:

hsdk-lnx# insmod test_bpf.ko test_suite=test_bpf

test_bpf: Summary: 863 PASSED, 186 FAILED, [851/851 JIT'ed]

All the failing test cases are due to the ones that were not JIT'ed.
Categorically, they can be represented as:

.-----------.------------.-------------.
| test type | opcodes | # of cases |
|-----------+------------+-------------|
| atomic | 0xC3, 0xDB | 149 |
| div64 | 0x37, 0x3F | 22 |
| mod64 | 0x97, 0x9F | 15 |
`-----------^------------+-------------|
| (total) 186 |
`-------------'

Setup: build config
-------------------
The following configs must be set to have a working JIT test:

CONFIG_BPF_JIT=y
CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON=y
CONFIG_TEST_BPF=m

The following options are not necessary for the tests module,
but are good to have:

CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y # prerequisite for below
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y # so bpftool can generate vmlinux.h

CONFIG_FTRACE=y #
CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL=y # all these options lead to
CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENTS=y # having CONFIG_BPF_EVENTS=y
CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y #

Some BPF programs provide data through /sys/kernel/debug:
CONFIG_DEBUG_FS=y
arc# mount -t debugfs debugfs /sys/kernel/debug

Setup: elfutils
---------------
The libdw.{so,a} library that is used by pahole for processing
the final binary must come from elfutils 0.189 or newer. The
support for ARCv2 [1] has been added since that version.

[1]
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=elfutils.git;a=commit;h=de3d46b3e7

Setup: pahole
-------------
The line below in linux/scripts/Makefile.btf must be commented out:

pahole-flags-$(call test-ge, $(pahole-ver), 121) += --btf_gen_floats

Or else, the build will fail:

$ make V=1
...
BTF .btf.vmlinux.bin.o
pahole -J --btf_gen_floats \
-j --lang_exclude=rust \
--skip_encoding_btf_inconsistent_proto \
--btf_gen_optimized .tmp_vmlinux.btf
Complex, interval and imaginary float types are not supported
Encountered error while encoding BTF.
...
BTFIDS vmlinux
./tools/bpf/resolve_btfids/resolve_btfids vmlinux
libbpf: failed to find '.BTF' ELF section in vmlinux
FAILED: load BTF from vmlinux: No data available

This is due to the fact that the ARC toolchains generate
"complex float" DIE entries in libgcc and at the moment, pahole
can't handle such entries.

Running the tests

ARC: mm: fix new code about cache aliasing

Manual/partial revert of 8690bbcf3b70 ("Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() across all architectures")

Current generation of ARCv2/ARCv3 based HSxx cores are only PIPT (to software
at least).

Legacy ARC700 cpus could be VIPT aliasing (based on cache geometry and
PAGE_SIZE) [1] however recently that support was ripped out so VIPT aliasing
cache is not relevant to ARC anymore.

Merge tag 'mm-stable-2024-03-13-20-04' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".

- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series

"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"

- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".

- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.

- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.

- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
"mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".

- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
hotplugged as system memory.

- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.

- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series

"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"

- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
environments appearing with CXL.

- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".

- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".

- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.

- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.

- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.

- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.

- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.

- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.

- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
refactoring".

- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.

- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.

- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
certain userfaultfd operations.

- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series

"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"

- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It
realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark.

- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".

- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series

"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"

- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging
of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
memory compaction".

- Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages()
to an iterator".

- Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
"Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".

- Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages
into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios. The
series is named "Split a folio to any lower order folios".

- David Hildenbrand has contributed the series "mm: remove
total_mapcount()", a cleanup.

- Matthew Wilcox has sought to improve the performance of bulk memory
freeing in his series "Rearrange batched folio freeing".

- Gang Li's series "hugetlb: parallelize hugetlb page init on boot"
provides large improvements in bootup times on large machines which
are configured to use large numbers of hugetlb pages.

- Matthew Wilcox's series "PageFlags cleanups" does that.

- Qi Zheng's series "minor fixes and supplement for ptdesc" does that
also. S390 is affected.

- Cleanups to our pagemap utility functions from Peter Xu in his series
"mm/treewide: Replace pXd_large() with pXd_leaf()".

- Nico Pache has fixed a few things with our hugepage selftests in his
series "selftests/mm: Improve Hugepage Test Handling in MM
Selftests".

- Also, of course, many singleton patches to many things. Please see
the individual changelogs for details.

Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() across all architectures

Introduce a generic way to query whether the data cache is virtually
aliased on all architectures. Its purpose is to ensure that subsystems
which are incompatible with virtually aliased data caches (e.g. FS_DAX)
can reliably query this.

For data cache aliasing, there are three scenarios dependending on the
architecture. Here is a breakdown based on my understanding:

A) The data cache is always aliasing:

* arc
* csky
* m68k (note: shared memory mappings are incoherent ? SHMLBA is missing there.)
* sh
* parisc

B) The data cache aliasing is statically known or depends on querying CPU
state at runtime:

* arm (cache_is_vivt() || cache_is_vipt_aliasing())
* mips (cpu_has_dc_aliases)
* nios2 (NIOS2_DCACHE_SIZE > PAGE_SIZE)
* sparc32 (vac_cache_size > PAGE_SIZE)
* sparc64 (L1DCACHE_SIZE > PAGE_SIZE)
* xtensa (DCACHE_WAY_SIZE > PAGE_SIZE)

C) The data cache is never aliasing:

* alpha
* arm64 (aarch64)
* hexagon
* loongarch (but with incoherent write buffers, which are disabled since
commit d23b7795 ("LoongArch: Change SHMLBA from SZ_64K to PAGE_SIZE"))
* microblaze
* openrisc
* powerpc
* riscv
* s390
* um
* x86

Require architectures in A) and B) to select ARCH_HAS_CPU_CACHE_ALIASING and
implement "cpu_dcache_is_aliasing()".

Architectures in C) don't select ARCH_HAS_CPU_CACHE_ALIASING, and thus
cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() simply evaluates to "false".

Note that this leaves "cpu_icache_is_aliasing()" to be implemented as future
work. This would be useful to gate features like XIP on architectures
which have aliasing CPU dcache-icache but not CPU dcache-dcache.

Use "cpu_dcache" and "cpu_cache" rather than just "dcache" and "cache"
to clarify that we really mean "CPU data cache" and "CPU cache" to
eliminate any possible confusion with VFS "dentry cache" and "page
cache".

By taking GENERIC_IOREMAP method, the generic generic_ioremap_prot(),
generic_iounmap(), and their generic wrapper ioremap_prot(), ioremap() and
iounmap() are all visible and available to arch. Arch needs to provide
wrapper functions to override the generic versions if there's arch
specific handling in its ioremap_prot(), ioremap() or iounmap(). This
change will simplify implementation by removing duplicated code with
generic_ioremap_prot() and generic_iounmap(), and has the equivalent
functioality as before.

Here, add wrapper functions ioremap_prot() and iounmap() for arc's special
operation when ioremap_prot() and iounmap().

ARC: entry: use gp to cache task pointer (vs. r25)

The motivation is eventual ABI considerations for ARCv3 but even without
it this change us worthwhile as diffstat reduces 100 net lines

r25 is a callee saved register, normally not saved by entry code in
pt_regs. However because of its usage in CONFIG_ARC_CURR_IN_REG it needs
to be. This in turn requires a whole bunch of special casing when we
need to access r25. Then there is distinction between user mode r25 vs.
kernel mode r25 - hence distinct SAVE_CALLEE_SAVED_{USER,KERNEL}

Instead use gp which is a scratch register and thus saved already in entry
code. This cleans things up significantly and much nocer on eyes:

- SAVE_CALLEE_SAVED_{USER,KERNEL} are now exactly same
- no special user_r25 slot in pt_reggs

Note that typical global asm registers are callee-saved (r25), but gp is
not callee-saved thus needs additional -ffixed-<reg> toggle

This does the simple pattern conversion of alpha, arc, csky, hexagon,
loongarch, nios2, sh, sparc32, and xtensa to the lock_mm_and_find_vma()
helper. They all have the regular fault handling pattern without odd
special cases.

The remaining architectures all have something that keeps us from a
straightforward conversion: ia64 and parisc have stacks that can grow
both up as well as down (and ia64 has special address region checks).

And m68k, microblaze, openrisc, sparc64, and um end up having extra
rules about only expanding the stack down a limited amount below the
user space stack pointer. That is something that x86 used to do too
(long long ago), and it probably could just be skipped, but it still
makes the conversion less than trivial.

Note that this conversion was done manually and with the exception of
alpha without any build testing, because I have a fairly limited cross-
building environment. The cases are all simple, and I went through the
changes several times, but...
