The current cpuset partition code is able to dynamically update
the sched domains of a running system and the corresponding
HK_TYPE_DOMAIN housekeeping cpumask to perform what is essentially the
"isolcpus=domain,..." boot command line feature at run time.
The housekeeping cpumask update requires flushing a number of different
workqueues which may not be safe with cpus_read_lock() held as the
workqueue flushing code may acquire cpus_read_lock() or acquiring locks
which have locking dependency with cpus_read_lock() down the chain. Below
is an example of such circular locking problem.

To avoid such a circular locking dependency problem, we have to
call housekeeping_update() without holding the cpus_read_lock() and
cpuset_mutex. The current set of wq's flushed by housekeeping_update()
may not have work functions that call cpus_read_lock() directly,
but we are likely to extend the list of wq's that are flushed in the
future. Moreover, the current set of work functions may hold locks that
may have cpu_hotplug_lock down the dependency chain.
So housekeeping_update() is now called after releasing cpus_read_lock
and cpuset_mutex at the end of a cpuset operation. These two locks are
then re-acquired later before calling rebuild_sched_domains_locked().
To enable mutual exclusion between the housekeeping_update() call and
other cpuset control file write actions, a new top level cpuset_top_mutex
is introduced. This new mutex will be acquired first to allow sharing
variables used by both code paths. However, cpuset update from CPU
hotplug can still happen in parallel with the housekeeping_update()
call, though that should be rare in production environment.
As cpus_read_lock() is now no longer held when
tmigr_isolated_exclude_cpumask() is called, it needs to acquire it
directly.
The lockdep_is_cpuset_held() is also updated to return true if either
cpuset_top_mutex or cpuset_mutex is held.

The cpuset_handle_hotplug() may need to invoke housekeeping_update(),
for instance, when an isolated partition is invalidated because its
last active CPU has been put offline.
As we are going to enable dynamic update to the nozh_full housekeeping
cpumask (HK_TYPE_KERNEL_NOISE) soon with the help of CPU hotplug,
allowing the CPU hotplug path to call into housekeeping_update() directly
from update_isolation_cpumasks() will likely cause deadlock. So we
have to defer any call to housekeeping_update() after the CPU hotplug
operation has finished. This is now done via the workqueue where
the update_hk_sched_domains() function will be invoked via the
hk_sd_workfn().
An concurrent cpuset control file write may have executed the required
update_hk_sched_domains() function before the work function is called. So
the work function call may become a no-op when it is invoked.

With the latest changes in sched/isolation.c, rebuild_sched_domains*()
requires the HK_TYPE_DOMAIN housekeeping cpumask to be properly
updated first, if needed, before the sched domains can be
rebuilt. So the two naturally fit together. Do that by creating a new
update_hk_sched_domains() helper to house both actions.
The name of the isolated_cpus_updating flag to control the
call to housekeeping_update() is now outdated. So change it to
update_housekeeping to better reflect its purpose. Also move the call
to update_hk_sched_domains() to the end of cpuset and hotplug operations
before releasing the cpuset_mutex.

The "S+" command is used in the test matrix to enable the cpuset

As cpuset is updating HK_TYPE_DOMAIN housekeeping mask when there is
a change in the set of isolated CPUs, making this change is now more
costly than before. Right now, the isolated_cpus_updating flag can be
set even if there is no real change in isolated_cpus. Put in additional
checks to make sure that isolated_cpus_updating is set only if there
is a real change in isolated_cpus.

Commit e2ffe502ba45 ("cgroup/cpuset: Add cpuset.cpus.exclusive for v2")
incorrectly changed the 2nd parameter of cpuset_update_tasks_cpumask()
from tmp->new_cpus to cp->effective_cpus. This second parameter is just
a temporary cpumask for internal use. The cpuset_update_tasks_cpumask()
function was originally called update_tasks_cpumask() before commit
381b53c3b549 ("cgroup/cpuset: rename functions shared between v1
and v2").
This mistake can incorrectly change the effective_cpus of the
cpuset when it is the top_cpuset or in arm64 architecture where
task_cpu_possible_mask() may differ from cpu_possible_mask. So far
top_cpuset hasn't been passed to update_cpumasks_hier() yet, but arm64
arch can still be impacted. Fix it by reverting the incorrect change.

The effective_xcpus of a cpuset can contain offline CPUs. In
partition_xcpus_del(), the xcpus parameter is incorrectly used as
a temporary cpumask to mask out offline CPUs. As xcpus can be the
effective_xcpus of a cpuset, this can result in unexpected changes
in that cpumask. Fix this problem by not making any changes to the
xcpus parameter.

When a task is migrated out of a css_set, cgroup_migrate_add_task()
first moves it from cset->tasks to cset->mg_tasks via:
list_move_tail(&task->cg_list, &cset->mg_tasks);
If a css_task_iter currently has it->task_pos pointing to this task,
css_set_move_task() calls css_task_iter_skip() to keep the iterator
valid. However, since the task has already been moved to ->mg_tasks,
the iterator is advanced relative to the mg_tasks list instead of the
original tasks list. As a result, remaining tasks on cset->tasks, as
well as tasks queued on cset->mg_tasks, can be skipped by iteration.
Fix this by calling css_set_skip_task_iters() before unlinking
task->cg_list from cset->tasks. This advances all active iterators to
the next task on cset->tasks, so iteration continues correctly even
when a task is concurrently being migrated.
This race is hard to hit in practice without instrumentation, but it
can be reproduced by artificially slowing down cgroup_procs_show().
For example, on an Android device a temporary
/sys/kernel/cgroup/cgroup_test knob can be added to inject a delay
into cgroup_procs_show(), and then:
1) Spawn three long-running tasks (PIDs 101, 102, 103).
2) Create a test cgroup and move the tasks into it.
3) Enable a large delay via /sys/kernel/cgroup/cgroup_test.
4) In one shell, read cgroup.procs from the test cgroup.
5) Within the delay window, in another shell migrate PID 102 by
writing it to a different cgroup.procs file.
Under this setup, cgroup.procs can intermittently show only PID 101
while skipping PID 103. Once the migration completes, reading the
file again shows all tasks as expected.
Note that this change does not allow removing the existing
css_set_skip_task_iters() call in css_set_move_task(). The new call
in cgroup_migrate_add_task() only handles iterators that are racing
with migration while the task is still on cset->tasks. Iterators may
also start after the task has been moved to cset->mg_tasks. If we
dropped css_set_skip_task_iters() from css_set_move_task(), such
iterators could keep task_pos pointing to a migrating task, causing
css_task_iter_advance() to malfunction on the destination css_set,
up to and including crashes or infinite loops.
The race window between migration and iteration is very small, and
css_task_iter is not on a hot path. In the worst case, when an
iterator is positioned on the first thread of the migrating process,
cgroup_migrate_add_task() may have to skip multiple tasks via
css_set_skip_task_iters(). However, this only happens when migration
and iteration actually race, so the performance impact is negligible
compared to the correctness fix provided here.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core & protocols:
- A significant effort all around the stack to guide the compiler to
make the right choice when inlining code, to avoid unneeded calls
for small helper and stack canary overhead in the fast-path.
This generates better and faster code with very small or no text
size increases, as in many cases the call generated more code than
the actual inlined helper.
- Extend AccECN implementation so that is now functionally complete,
also allow the user-space enabling it on a per network namespace
basis.
- Add support for memory providers with large (above 4K) rx buffer.
Paired with hw-gro, larger rx buffer sizes reduce the number of
buffers traversing the stack, dincreasing single stream CPU usage
by up to ~30%.
- Do not add HBH header to Big TCP GSO packets. This simplifies the
RX path, the TX path and the NIC drivers, and is possible because
user-space taps can now interpret correctly such packets without
the HBH hint.
- Allow IPv6 routes to be configured with a gateway address that is
resolved out of a different interface than the one specified,
aligning IPv6 to IPv4 behavior.
- Multi-queue aware sch_cake. This makes it possible to scale the
rate shaper of sch_cake across multiple CPUs, while still enforcing
a single global rate on the interface.
- Add support for the nbcon (new buffer console) infrastructure to
netconsole, enabling lock-free, priority-based console operations
that are safer in crash scenarios.
- Improve the TCP ipv6 output path to cache the flow information,
saving cpu cycles, reducing cache line misses and stack use.
- Improve netfilter packet tracker to resolve clashes for most
protocols, avoiding unneeded drops on rare occasions.
- Add IP6IP6 tunneling acceleration to the flowtable infrastructure.
- Reduce tcp socket size by one cache line.
- Notify neighbour changes atomically, avoiding inconsistencies
between the notification sequence and the actual states sequence.
- Add vsock namespace support, allowing complete isolation of vsocks
across different network namespaces.
- Improve xsk generic performances with cache-alignment-oriented
optimizations.
- Support netconsole automatic target recovery, allowing netconsole
to reestablish targets when underlying low-level interface comes
back online.
Driver API:
- Support for switching the working mode (automatic vs manual) of a
DPLL device via netlink.
- Introduce PHY ports representation to expose multiple front-facing
media ports over a single MAC.

- Add missing driver-core maintainers to the "AUXILIARY BUS" entry
Misc:
- Change return type of attribute_container_register() to void; it
has always been infallible
- Do not export sysfs_change_owner(), sysfs_file_change_owner() and
device_change_owner()
- Move devres_for_each_res() from the public devres header to
drivers/base/base.h
- Do not use a static struct device for the faux bus; allocate it
dynamically
Revocable:
- Patches for the revocable synchronization primitive have been
scheduled for v7.0-rc1, but have been reverted as they need some
more refinement
Rust:
- Device:
- Support dev_printk on all device types, not just the core Device
struct; remove now-redundant .as_ref() calls in dev_* print
calls
- Devres:
- Introduce an internal reference count in Devres<T> to avoid a
deadlock condition in case of (indirect) nesting
- DMA:
- Allow drivers to tune the maximum DMA segment size via
dma_set_max_seg_size()
- I/O:
- Introduce the concept of generic I/O backends to handle
different kinds of device shared memory through a common
interface.
This enables higher-level concepts such as register
abstractions, I/O slices, and field projections to be built
generically on top.
In a first step, introduce the Io, IoCapable<T>, and IoKnownSize
trait hierarchy for sharing a common interface supporting offset
validation and bound-checking logic between I/O backends.
- Refactor MMIO to use the common I/O backend infrastructure
- Misc:
- Add __rust_helper annotations to C helpers for inlining into
Rust code
- Use "kernel vertical" style for imports
- Replace kernel::c_str! with C string literals
- Update ARef imports to use sync::aref
- Use pin_init::zeroed() for struct auxiliary_device_id and
debugfs file_operations initialization
- Use LKMM atomic types in debugfs doc-tests
- Various minor comment and documentation fixes
- PCI:
- Implement PCI configuration space accessors using the common I/O
backend infrastructure
- Document pci::Bar device endianness assumptions
- SoC:
- Abstractions for struct soc_device and struct soc_device_attribute
- Sample driver for soc::Device"

The HSI is shared between the firmware and the driver and is
automatically generated.
Add a new HSI for the BNGE driver. The current HSI refers to BNXT,
which will become incompatible with ThorUltra devices as the
BNGE driver adds more features. The BNGE driver will not use the HSI
located in the bnxt folder.
Also, add an HSI for ThorUltra RoCE driver.

In commit 99537d5c476c ("net: macb: Relocate mog_init_rings() callback
from macb_mac_link_up() to macb_open()"), the mog_init_rings() callback
was moved from macb_mac_link_up() to macb_open() to resolve a deadlock
issue. However, this change introduced a tx/rx malfunction following
phy link down and up events. The issue arises from a mismatch between
the software queue->tx_head, queue->tx_tail, queue->rx_prepared_head,
and queue->rx_tail values and the hardware's internal tx/rx queue
pointers.
According to the Zynq UltraScale TRM [1], when tx/rx is disabled, the
internal tx queue pointer resets to the value in the tx queue base
address register, while the internal rx queue pointer remains unchanged.
The following is quoted from the Zynq UltraScale TRM:
When transmit is disabled, with bit [3] of the network control register
set low, the transmit-buffer queue pointer resets to point to the address
indicated by the transmit-buffer queue base address register. Disabling
receive does not have the same effect on the receive-buffer queue
pointer.
Additionally, there is no need to reset the RBQP and TBQP registers in a
phy event callback. Therefore, move macb_init_buffers() to macb_open().
In a phy link up event, the only required action is to reset the tx
software head and tail pointers to align with the hardware's behavior.
