RDMA DIM implements a different algorithm from net DIM and is based on
completions which is how we can implement interrupt moderation in RDMA.
The algorithm optimizes for number of completions and ratio between
completions and events. In order to avoid long latencies, the
implementation performs fast reduction of moderation level when the
traffic changes.

Generic DIM
From: Tal Gilboa and Yamin Fridman
Implement net DIM over a generic DIM library, add RDMA DIM
dim.h lib exposes an implementation of the DIM algorithm for
dynamically-tuned interrupt moderation for networking interfaces.
We want a similar functionality for other protocols, which might need to
optimize interrupts differently. Main motivation here is DIM for NVMf
storage protocol.
Current DIM implementation prioritizes reducing interrupt overhead over
latency. Also, in order to reduce DIM's own overhead, the algorithm might
take some time to identify it needs to change profiles. While this is
acceptable for networking, it might not work well on other scenarios.
Here we propose a new structure to DIM. The idea is to allow a slightly
modified functionality without the risk of breaking Net DIM behavior for
netdev. We verified there are no degradations in current DIM behavior with
the modified solution.
Suggested solution:
- Common logic is implemented in lib/dim/dim.c
- Net DIM (existing) logic is implemented in lib/dim/net_dim.c, which uses
the common logic in dim.c
- Any new DIM logic will be implemented in "lib/dim/new_dim.c".
This new implementation will expose modified versions of profiles,
dim_step() and dim_decision().
- DIM API is declared in include/linux/dim.h for all implementations.
Pros for this solution are:
- Zero impact on existing net_dim implementation and usage
- Relatively more code reuse (compared to two separate solutions)
- Increased extensibility
Required for dependencies in the next series.

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The timer and timekeeping departement delivers:
Core:
- The consolidation of the VDSO code into a generic library including
the conversion of x86 and ARM64. Conversion of ARM and MIPS are en
route through the relevant maintainer trees and should end up in
5.4.
This gets rid of the unnecessary different copies of the same code
and brings all architectures on the same level of VDSO
functionality.
- Make the NTP user space interface more robust by restricting the
TAI offset to prevent undefined behaviour. Includes a selftest.
- Validate user input in the compat settimeofday() syscall to catch
invalid values which would be turned into valid values by a
multiplication overflow
- Consolidate the time accessors
- Small fixes, improvements and cleanups all over the place
Drivers:
- Support for the NXP system counter, TI davinci timer
- Move the Microsoft HyperV clocksource/events code into the
drivers/clocksource directory so it can be shared between x86 and
ARM64.
- Overhaul of the Tegra driver
- Delay timer support for IXP4xx
- Small fixes, improvements and cleanups as usual"

Pull s390 updates from Vasily Gorbik:
- Improve stop_machine wait logic: replace cpu_relax_yield call in
generic stop_machine function with a weak stop_machine_yield
function. This is overridden on s390, which yields the current cpu to
the neighbouring cpu after a couple of retries, instead of blindly
giving up the cpu to the hipervisor. This significantly improves
stop_machine performance on s390 in overcommitted scenarios.
This includes common code changes which have been Acked by Peter
Zijlstra and Thomas Gleixner.
- Improve jump label transformation speed: transform jump labels
without using stop_machine.
- Refactoring of the vfio-ccw cp handling, simplifying the code and
avoiding unneeded allocating/copying.
- Various vfio-ccw fixes (ccw translation, state machine).
- Add support for vfio-ap queue interrupt control in the guest. This
includes s390 kvm changes which have been Acked by Christian
Borntraeger.
- Add protected virtualization support for virtio-ccw.
- Enforce both CONFIG_SMP and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU, which allows to
remove some code which most likely isn't working at all, besides that
s390 didn't even compile for !CONFIG_SMP.
- Support for special flagged EP11 CPRBs for zcrypt.
- Handle PCI devices with no support for new MIO instructions.
- Avoid KASAN false positives in reworked stack unwinder.
- Couple of fixes for the QDIO layer.
- Convert s390 specific documentation to ReST format.
- Let s390 crypto modules return -ENODEV instead of -EOPNOTSUPP if
hardware is missing. This way our modules behave like most other
modules and which is also what systemd's systemd-modules-load.service
expects.
- Replace defconfig with performance_defconfig, so there is one config
file less to maintain.
- Remove the SCLP call home device driver, which was never useful.
- Cleanups all over the place.

When using the legacy clock framework, clock pointers are no longer
printed as IDs, as the !CONFIG_COMMON_CLK case was accidentally
considered an error case.
Fix this by reverting to the old behavior, which allows to distinguish
clocks by ID, as the legacy clock framework does not store names with
clocks.

I'm exposing some information about NFS clients in pseudofiles. I
expect to eventually have simple tools to help read those pseudofiles.
But it's also helpful if the raw files are human-readable to the extent
possible. It aids debugging and makes them usable on systems that don't
have the latest nfs-utils.
A minor challenge there is opaque client-generated protocol objects like
state owners and client identifiers. Some clients generate those to
include handy information in plain ascii. But they may also include
arbitrary byte sequences.
I think the simplest approach is to limit to isprint(c) && isascii(c)
and escape everything else.
That means you can just cat the file and get something that looks OK.
Also, I'm trying to keep these files legal YAML, which requires them to
UTF-8, and this is a simple way to guarantee that.

All mapping iterator logic is based on the assumption that sg->offset
is always lower than PAGE_SIZE.
But there are situations where sg->offset is such that the SG item
is on the second page. In that case sg_copy_to_buffer() fails
properly copying the data into the buffer. One of the reason is
that the data will be outside the kmapped area used to access that
data.
This patch fixes the issue by adjusting the mapping iterator
offset and pgoffset fields such that offset is always lower than
PAGE_SIZE.

In the second block, atomic_cmpxchg() return value isn't checked, so
after atomic_cmpxchg() -> atomic_xchg() conversion it could be replaced
with atomic_set(). Comparison with atomic_read() in the second chunk was

Replace the uid/gid/perm permissions checking on a key with an ACL to allow
the SETATTR and SEARCH permissions to be split. This will also allow a
greater range of subjects to represented.
============
WHY DO THIS?
============
The problem is that SETATTR and SEARCH cover a slew of actions, not all of
which should be grouped together.
For SETATTR, this includes actions that are about controlling access to a
key:
(1) Changing a key's ownership.
(2) Changing a key's security information.
(3) Setting a keyring's restriction.
And actions that are about managing a key's lifetime:
(4) Setting an expiry time.
(5) Revoking a key.
and (proposed) managing a key as part of a cache:
(6) Invalidating a key.
Managing a key's lifetime doesn't really have anything to do with
controlling access to that key.
Expiry time is awkward since it's more about the lifetime of the content
and so, in some ways goes better with WRITE permission. It can, however,
be set unconditionally by a process with an appropriate authorisation token
for instantiating a key, and can also be set by the key type driver when a
key is instantiated, so lumping it with the access-controlling actions is
probably okay.
As for SEARCH permission, that currently covers:
(1) Finding keys in a keyring tree during a search.
(2) Permitting keyrings to be joined.
(3) Invalidation.
But these don't really belong together either, since these actions really
need to be controlled separately.
Finally, there are number of special cases to do with granting the
administrator special rights to invalidate or clear keys that I would like
to handle with the ACL rather than key flags and special checks.
===============
WHAT IS CHANGED
===============
The SETATTR permission is split to create two new permissions:
(1) SET_SECURITY - which allows the key's owner, group and ACL to be
changed and a restriction to be placed on a keyring.
(2) REVOKE - which allows a key to be revoked.
The SEARCH permission is split to create:
(1) SEARCH - which allows a keyring to be search and a key to be found.
(2) JOIN - which allows a keyring to be joined as a session keyring.
(3) INVAL - which allows a key to be invalidated.
The WRITE permission is also split to create:
(1) WRITE - which allows a key's content to be altered and links to be
added, removed and replaced in a keyring.
(2) CLEAR - which allows a keyring to be cleared completely. This is
split out to make it possible to give just this to an administrator.
(3) REVOKE - see above.
Keys acquire ACLs which consist of a series of ACEs, and all that apply are
unioned together. An ACE specifies a subject, such as:
(*) Possessor - permitted to anyone who 'possesses' a key
(*) Owner - permitted to the key owner
(*) Group - permitted to the key group
(*) Everyone - permitted to everyone
Note that 'Other' has been replaced with 'Everyone' on the assumption that
you wouldn't grant a permit to 'Other' that you wouldn't also grant to
everyone else.
Further subjects may be made available by later patches.
The ACE also specifies a permissions mask. The set of permissions is now:
VIEW Can view the key metadata
READ Can read the key content
WRITE Can update/modify the key content
SEARCH Can find the key by searching/requesting
LINK Can make a link to the key
SET_SECURITY Can change owner, ACL, expiry
INVAL Can invalidate
REVOKE Can revoke
JOIN Can join this keyring
CLEAR Can clear this keyring
The KEYCTL_SETPERM function is then deprecated.
The KEYCTL_SET_TIMEOUT function then is permitted if SET_SECURITY is set,
or if the caller has a valid instantiation auth token.
The KEYCTL_INVALIDATE function then requires INVAL.
The KEYCTL_REVOKE function then requires REVOKE.
The KEYCTL_JOIN_SESSION_KEYRING function then requires JOIN to join an
existing keyring.
The JOIN permission is enabled by default for session keyrings and manually
created keyrings only.
======================
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY
======================
To maintain backward compatibility, KEYCTL_SETPERM will translate the
permissions mask it is given into a new ACL for a key - unless
KEYCTL_SET_ACL has been called on that key, in which case an error will be
returned.
It will convert possessor, owner, group and other permissions into separate
ACEs, if each portion of the mask is non-zero.
SETATTR permission turns on all of INVAL, REVOKE and SET_SECURITY. WRITE
permission turns on WRITE, REVOKE and, if a keyring, CLEAR. JOIN is turned
on if a keyring is being altered.
The KEYCTL_DESCRIBE function translates the ACL back into a permissions
mask to return depending on possessor, owner, group and everyone ACEs.
It will make the following mappings:
(1) INVAL, JOIN -> SEARCH
(2) SET_SECURITY -> SETATTR
(3) REVOKE -> WRITE if SETATTR isn't already set
(4) CLEAR -> WRITE
Note that the value subsequently returned by KEYCTL_DESCRIBE may not match
the value set with KEYCTL_SETATTR.
=======
TESTING
=======
This passes the keyutils testsuite for all but a couple of tests:
(1) tests/keyctl/dh_compute/badargs: The first wrong-key-type test now
returns EOPNOTSUPP rather than ENOKEY as READ permission isn't removed
if the type doesn't have ->read(). You still can't actually read the
key.
(2) tests/keyctl/permitting/valid: The view-other-permissions test doesn't
work as Other has been replaced with Everyone in the ACL.

====================
Generic DIM
From: Tal Gilboa and Yamin Fridman
Implement net DIM over a generic DIM library, add RDMA DIM
dim.h lib exposes an implementation of the DIM algorithm for
dynamically-tuned interrupt moderation for networking interfaces.
We want a similar functionality for other protocols, which might need to
optimize interrupts differently. Main motivation here is DIM for NVMf
storage protocol.
Current DIM implementation prioritizes reducing interrupt overhead over
latency. Also, in order to reduce DIM's own overhead, the algorithm might
take some time to identify it needs to change profiles. While this is
acceptable for networking, it might not work well on other scenarios.
Here we propose a new structure to DIM. The idea is to allow a slightly
modified functionality without the risk of breaking Net DIM behavior for
netdev. We verified there are no degradations in current DIM behavior with
the modified solution.
Suggested solution:
- Common logic is implemented in lib/dim/dim.c
- Net DIM (existing) logic is implemented in lib/dim/net_dim.c, which uses
the common logic in dim.c
- Any new DIM logic will be implemented in "lib/dim/new_dim.c".
This new implementation will expose modified versions of profiles,
dim_step() and dim_decision().
- DIM API is declared in include/linux/dim.h for all implementations.
Pros for this solution are:
- Zero impact on existing net_dim implementation and usage
- Relatively more code reuse (compared to two separate solutions)
- Increased extensibility

The decoder is flawed in the following ways:
- The decoder sometimes fails silently, i.e. it announces success but
returns a word that is not a codeword.
- The return value of the decoder is incoherent with respect to how
fixed erasures are counted. If the word to be decoded is a codeword,
then the decoder always returns zero even if some erasures are given.
On the other hand, if the word to be decoded contains errors, then the
number of erasures is always included in the count of corrected
symbols. So the decoder handles erasures without symbol corruption
inconsistently. This inconsistency probably doesn't affect anyone
using the decoder, but it is inconsistent with the documentation.
- The error positions returned in eras_pos include all erasures, but the
corrections are only set in the correction buffer if there actually is
a symbol error. So if there are erasures without symbol corruption,
then the correction buffer will contain errors (unless initialized to
zero before calling the decoder) or some values will be unset (if the
correction buffer is uninitialized).
- When correcting data in-place the decoder does not correct errors in
the parity. On the other hand, when returning the errors in correction
buffers, errors in the parity are included.
The respective fixed are:
- The syndrome of a codeword is always zero, and the syndrome is linear,
.i.e, S(x+e) = S(x) + S(e). So compute the syndrome for the error and
check whether it equals the syndrome of the received word. If it does,
then we have decoded to a valid codeword, otherwise we know that we
have an uncorrectable error. Fortunately, some unrecoverable error
conditions can be detected earlier in the decoding, which saves some
processing power.
- Simply count and return the number of symbols actually corrected.
- Make sure to only return positions where symbols were corrected.
- Also fix errors in parity when correcting in-place. Another option
would be to completely disregard errors in the parity, but then the
interface makes it impossible to write tests that test for silent
failures.
Other changes:
- Only fill the correction buffer and error position buffer if both of
them are provided. Otherwise correct in place. Previously the error
position buffer was always populated with the positions of the
corrected errors, irrespective of whether a correction buffer was
supplied or not. The rationale for this change is that there seems to
be two use cases for the decoder; correct in-place or use the
correction buffers. The caller does not need the positions of the
corrected errors when in-place correction is used. If in-place
correction is not used, then both the correction buffer and error
position buffer need to be populated.

The decoding of shortenend codes is broken. It only works as expected if
there are no erasures.
When decoding with erasures, Lambda (the error and erasure locator
polynomial) is initialized from the given erasure positions. The pad
parameter is not accounted for by the initialisation code, and hence
Lambda is initialized from incorrect erasure positions.
The fix is to adjust the erasure positions by the supplied pad.

A Reed-Solomon code with minimum distance d can correct any error and
erasure pattern that satisfies 2 * #error + #erasures < d. If the
error correction capacity is exceeded, then correct decoding cannot be
guaranteed. The decoder must, however, return a valid codeword or report
failure.
There are two main tests:
- Check for correct behaviour up to the error correction capacity
- Check for correct behaviour beyond error corrupted capacity
Both tests are simple:
1. Generate random data
2. Encode data with the chosen code
3. Add errors and erasures to data
4. Decode the corrupted word
5. Check for correct behaviour
When testing up to capacity we test for:
- Correct decoding
- Correct return value (i.e. the number of corrected symbols)
- That the returned error positions are correct
There are two kinds of erasures; the erased symbol can be corrupted or
not. When counting the number of corrected symbols, erasures without
symbol corruption should not be counted. Similarly, the returned error
positions should only include positions where a correction is necessary.
We run the up to capacity tests for three different interfaces of
decode_rs:
- Use the correction buffers
- Use the correction buffers with syndromes provided by the caller
- Error correction in place (does not check the error positions)
When testing beyond capacity test for silent failures. A silent failure is
when the decoder returns success but the returned word is not a valid
codeword.
There are a couple of options for the tests:
- Verbosity.
- Whether to test for correct behaviour beyond capacity. Default is to
test beyond capacity.
- Whether to allow erasures without symbol corruption. Defaults to yes.
Note that the tests take a couple of minutes to complete.

The x86 vdso implementation on which the generic vdso library is based on
has subtle (unfortunately undocumented) twists:
1) The code assumes that the clocksource mask is U64_MAX which means that
no bits are masked. Which is true for any valid x86 VDSO clocksource.
Stupidly it still did the mask operation for no reason and at the wrong
place right after reading the clocksource.
2) It contains a sanity check to catch the case where slightly
unsynchronized TSC values can be observed which would cause the delta
calculation to make a huge jump. It therefore checks whether the
current TSC value is larger than the value on which the current
conversion is based on. If it's not larger the base value is used to
prevent time jumps.
#1 Is not only stupid for the X86 case because it does the masking for no
reason it is also completely wrong for clocksources with a smaller mask
which can legitimately wrap around during a conversion period. The core
timekeeping code does it correct by applying the mask after the delta
calculation:
(now - base) & mask
#2 is equally broken for clocksources which have smaller masks and can wrap
around during a conversion period because there the now > base check is
just wrong and causes stale time stamps and time going backwards issues.
Unbreak it by:
1) Removing the mask operation from the clocksource read which makes the
fallback detection work for all clocksources
2) Replacing the conditional delta calculation with a overrideable inline
function.
#2 could reuse clocksource_delta() from the timekeeping code but that
results in a significant performance hit for the x86 VSDO. The timekeeping
core code must have the non optimized version as it has to operate
correctly with clocksources which have smaller masks as well to handle the
case where TSC is discarded as timekeeper clocksource and replaced by HPET
or pmtimer. For the VDSO there is no replacement clocksource. If TSC is
unusable the syscall is enforced which does the right thing.
To accommodate to the needs of various architectures provide an
override-able inline function which defaults to the regular delta
calculation with masking:
(now - base) & mask
Override it for x86 with the non-masking and checking version.
This unbreaks the ARM64 syscall fallback operation, allows to use
clocksources with arbitrary width and preserves the performance
optimization for x86.

Added a measurement of completions per/msec to allow for completion based
dim algorithms.
In order to use dynamic interrupt moderation with RDMA we need to have a
different measurment than packets per second. This change is meant to
prepare for adding a new DIM method.
All drivers that use net_dim and thus do not need a completion count will
have the completions set to 0.

In the last few years the kernel gained quite some architecture specific
vdso implementations which contain very similar code.
Introduce a generic VDSO implementation of gettimeofday() which will be
shareable between architectures once they are converted over.
The implementation is based on the current x86 VDSO code.

If user doesn't ask to preallocate by passing zero 'nents_first_chunk' to
sg_alloc_table_chained, we need to make sure that 'first_chunk' is cleared.
Otherwise, __sg_alloc_table() still may think that the 1st SGL should be
from the preallocation.
Fixes the issue by clearing 'first_chunk' in sg_alloc_table_chained() if
'nents_first_chunk' is zero.

sg_alloc_table_chained() currently allows the caller to provide one
preallocated SGL and returns if the requested number isn't bigger than
size of that SGL. This is used to inline an SGL for an IO request.
However, scattergather code only allows that size of the 1st preallocated
SGL to be SG_CHUNK_SIZE(128). This means a substantial amount of memory
(4KB) is claimed for the SGL for each IO request. If the I/O is small, it
would be prudent to allocate a smaller SGL.
Introduce an extra parameter to sg_alloc_table_chained() and
sg_free_table_chained() for specifying size of the preallocated SGL.
Both __sg_free_table() and __sg_alloc_table() assume that each SGL has the
same size except for the last one. Change the code to allow both functions
to accept a variable size for the 1st preallocated SGL.

Although we may have multiple fonts in kernel, the small 8x16 font is
chosen as default usually unless user specify the boot option. This
is suboptimal for monitors with high resolutions.
This patch tries to assign a bigger font for such a high resolution by
calculating some penalty value. This won't change anything for a
standard monitor like Full HD (1920x1080), but for a high res monitor
like UHD 4K, a bigger font like TER16x32 will be chosen once when
