Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- "panic: sys_info: Refactor and fix a potential issue" (Andy Shevchenko)
fixes a build issue and does some cleanup in ib/sys_info.c
- "Implement mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup()" (David Laight)
enhances the 64-bit math code on behalf of a PWM driver and beefs up
the test module for these library functions
- "scripts/gdb/symbols: make BPF debug info available to GDB" (Ilya Leoshkevich)
makes BPF symbol names, sizes, and line numbers available to the GDB
debugger
- "Enable hung_task and lockup cases to dump system info on demand" (Feng Tang)
adds a sysctl which can be used to cause additional info dumping when
the hung-task and lockup detectors fire
- "lib/base64: add generic encoder/decoder, migrate users" (Kuan-Wei Chiu)
adds a general base64 encoder/decoder to lib/ and migrates several
users away from their private implementations
- "rbree: inline rb_first() and rb_last()" (Eric Dumazet)
makes TCP a little faster
- "liveupdate: Rework KHO for in-kernel users" (Pasha Tatashin)
reworks the KEXEC Handover interfaces in preparation for Live Update
Orchestrator (LUO), and possibly for other future clients
- "kho: simplify state machine and enable dynamic updates" (Pasha Tatashin)
increases the flexibility of KEXEC Handover. Also preparation for LUO
- "Live Update Orchestrator" (Pasha Tatashin)
is a major new feature targeted at cloud environments. Quoting the
cover letter:
This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel
subsystem designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a
kexec-based reboot. This capability is critical for cloud
environments, allowing hypervisors to be updated with minimal
downtime for running virtual machines. LUO achieves this by
preserving the state of selected resources, such as memory,
devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition.
As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving
memfd file descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such
as guest RAM or any other large memory region, to be maintained in
RAM across the kexec reboot.
Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and
testing work.
- "kexec: reorganize kexec and kdump sysfs" (Sourabh Jain)
moves the kexec and kdump sysfs entries from /sys/kernel/ to
/sys/kernel/kexec/ and adds back-compatibility symlinks which can
hopefully be removed one day
- "kho: fixes for vmalloc restoration" (Mike Rapoport)
fixes a BUG which was being hit during KHO restoration of vmalloc()
regions

This follow-up patch completes centralization of kselftest.h and
ksefltest_harness.h includes in remaining seltests files, replacing all
relative paths with a non-relative paths using shared -I include path in
lib.mk
Tested with gcc-13.3 and clang-18.1, and cross-compiled successfully on
riscv, arm64, x86_64 and powerpc arch.

Some of the vsyscall selftests expect a #PF when vsyscalls are disabled.
However, with LASS enabled, an invalid access results in a SIGSEGV due
to a #GP instead of a #PF. One such negative test fails because it is
expecting X86_PF_INSTR to be set.
Update the failing test to expect either a #GP or a #PF. Also, update
the printed messages to show the trap number (denoting the type of
fault) instead of assuming a #PF.

The x86 selftests frequently register and clean up signal handlers, but
the sethandler() and clearhandler() functions have been redundantly
copied across multiple .c files.
Move these functions to helpers.h to enable reuse across tests,
eliminating around 250 lines of duplicate code.
Converge the error handling by using ksft_exit_fail_msg(), which is
functionally equivalent with err() within the selftest framework.
This change is a prerequisite for the upcoming xstate selftest, which
requires signal handling for registering and cleaning up handlers.

When building with clang, via:
make LLVM=1 -C tools/testing/selftests
...quite a few functions are variables are generating "unused" warnings.
Fix the warnings by deleting the unused items.
One item, the "nerrs" variable in vsdo_restorer.c's main(), is unused
but probably wants to be returned from main(), as a non-zero result.
That result is also unused right now, so another option would be to
delete it entirely, but this way, main() also gets fixed. It was missing
a return value.

Conform the layout, informational and status messages to TAP. No
functional change is intended other than the layout of output messages.

There are multiple #ifdef blocks inside functions where they return just
0 if #ifdef is false. This makes number of tests counting difficult.
Move those functions inside one #ifdef block and move all of them
together. This is preparatory patch for next patch to convert this into
TAP format. So in this patch, we are just moving functions around
without any changes.
With and without this patch, the output of this patch is same.

The existing code accepted process_vm_readv() success or failure as long
as it didn't return garbage. This is too weak: if the vsyscall page is
readable, then process_vm_readv() should succeed and, if the page is not
readable, then it should fail.

There are several copies of get_eflags() and set_eflags() and they all are
buggy. Consolidate them and fix them. The fixes are:
Add memory clobbers. These are probably unnecessary but they make sure
that the compiler doesn't move something past one of these calls when it
shouldn't.
Respect the redzone on x86_64. There has no failure been observed related
to this, but it's definitely a bug.

Even if vsyscall=none, user page faults on the vsyscall page are reported
as though the PROT bit in the error code was set. Add a comment explaining
why this is probably okay and display the value in the test case.
While at it, explain why the behavior is correct with respect to PKRU.
Modify also the selftest to print the odd error code so that there is a
way to demonstrate the odd behaviour.
If anyone really cares about more accurate emulation, the behaviour could
be changed. But that needs a real good justification.

Since Linux v3.2, vsyscalls have been deprecated and slow. From v3.2
on, Linux had three vsyscall modes: "native", "emulate", and "none".
"emulate" is the default. All known user programs work correctly in
emulate mode, but vsyscalls turn into page faults and are emulated.
This is very slow. In "native" mode, the vsyscall page is easily
usable as an exploit gadget, but vsyscalls are a bit faster -- they
turn into normal syscalls. (This is in contrast to vDSO functions,
which can be much faster than syscalls.) In "none" mode, there are
no vsyscalls.
For all practical purposes, "native" was really just a chicken bit
in case something went wrong with the emulation. It's been over six
years, and nothing has gone wrong. Delete it.

This tests that the vsyscall entries do what they're expected to do.
It also confirms that attempts to read the vsyscall page behave as
expected.
If changes are made to the vsyscall code or its memory map handling,
running this test in all three of vsyscall=none, vsyscall=emulate,
and vsyscall=native are helpful.
(Because it's easy, this also compares the vsyscall results to their
vDSO equivalents.)
Note to KAISER backporters: please test this under all three
vsyscall modes. Also, in the emulate and native modes, make sure
that test_vsyscall_64 agrees with the command line or config
option as to which mode you're in. It's quite easy to mess up
the kernel such that native mode accidentally emulates
or vice versa.
Greg, etc: please backport this to all your Meltdown-patched
kernels. It'll help make sure the patches didn't regress
vsyscalls.
