Since commit cbf7827bc5dc ("iommu/s390: Fix potential s390_domain
aperture shrinking") the s390 IOMMU driver uses reserved regions for the
system provided DMA ranges of PCI devices. Previously it reduced the
size of the IOMMU aperture and checked it on each mapping operation.
On current machines the system denies use of DMA addresses below 2^32 for
all PCI devices.

Usually mapping IOVAs in a reserved regions is harmless until a DMA
actually tries to utilize the mapping. However on s390 there is
a virtual PCI device called ISM which is implemented in firmware and
used for cross LPAR communication. Unlike real PCI devices this device
does not use the hardware IOMMU but inspects IOMMU translation tables
directly on IOTLB flush (s390 RPCIT instruction). If it detects IOVA
mappings outside the allowed ranges it goes into an error state. This
error state then causes the device to be unavailable to the KVM guest.

Analysing this we found that vfio_test_domain_fgsp() maps 2 pages at DMA
address 0 irrespective of the IOMMUs reserved regions. Even if usually
harmless this seems wrong in the general case so instead go through the
freshly updated IOVA list and try to find a range that isn't reserved,
and fits 2 pages, is PAGE_SIZE * 2 aligned. If found use that for
testing for fine grained super pages.

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the set of driver core and kernfs changes for 6.2-rc1.

  The "big" change in here is the addition of a new macro,
  container_of_const() that will preserve the "const-ness" of a pointer
  passed into it.

  The "problem" of the current container_of() macro is that if you pass
  in a "const *", out of it can comes a non-const pointer unless you
  specifically ask for it. For many usages, we want to preserve the
  "const" attribute by using the same call. For a specific example, this
  series changes the kobj_to_dev() macro to use it, allowing it to be
  used no matter what the const value is. This prevents every subsystem
  from having to declare 2 different individual macros (i.e.
  kobj_const_to_dev() and kobj_to_dev()) and having the compiler enforce
  the const value at build time, which having 2 macros would not do
  either.

  The driver for all of this have been discussions with the Rust kernel
  developers as to how to properly mark driver core, and kobject,
  objects as being "non-mutable". The changes to the kobject and driver
  core in this pull request are the result of that, as there are lots of
  paths where kobjects and device pointers are not modified at all, so
  marking them as "const" allows the compiler to enforce this.

  So, a nice side affect of the Rust development effort has been already
  to clean up the driver core code to be more obvious about object
  rules.

  All of this has been bike-shedded in quite a lot of detail on lkml
  with different names and implementations resulting in the tiny version
  we have in here, much better than my original proposal. Lots of
  subsystem maintainers have acked the changes as well.

  Other than this change, included in here are smaller stuff like:

   - kernfs fixes and updates to handle lock contention better

   - vmlinux.lds.h fixes and updates

   - sysfs and debugfs documentation updates

   - device property updates

  All of these have been in the linux-next tree for quite a while with

Pull iommufd implementation from Jason Gunthorpe:
 "iommufd is the user API to control the IOMMU subsystem as it relates
  to managing IO page tables that point at user space memory.

  It takes over from drivers/vfio/vfio_iommu_type1.c (aka the VFIO
  container) which is the VFIO specific interface for a similar idea.

  We see a broad need for extended features, some being highly IOMMU
  device specific:
   - Binding iommu_domain's to PASID/SSID
   - Userspace IO page tables, for ARM, x86 and S390
   - Kernel bypassed invalidation of user page tables
   - Re-use of the KVM page table in the IOMMU
   - Dirty page tracking in the IOMMU
   - Runtime Increase/Decrease of IOPTE size
   - PRI support with faults resolved in userspace

  Many of these HW features exist to support VM use cases - for instance
  the combination of PASID, PRI and Userspace IO Page Tables allows an
  implementation of DMA Shared Virtual Addressing (vSVA) within a guest.
  Dirty tracking enables VM live migration with SRIOV devices and PASID
  support allow creating "scalable IOV" devices, among other things.

  As these features are fundamental to a VM platform they need to be
  uniformly exposed to all the driver families that do DMA into VMs,
  which is currently VFIO and VDPA"

Pull irq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Updates for the interrupt core and driver subsystem:

  The bulk is the rework of the MSI subsystem to support per device MSI
  interrupt domains. This solves conceptual problems of the current
  PCI/MSI design which are in the way of providing support for
  PCI/MSI[-X] and the upcoming PCI/IMS mechanism on the same device.

  IMS (Interrupt Message Store] is a new specification which allows
  device manufactures to provide implementation defined storage for MSI
  messages (as opposed to PCI/MSI and PCI/MSI-X that has a specified
  message store which is uniform accross all devices). The PCI/MSI[-X]
  uniformity allowed us to get away with "global" PCI/MSI domains.

  IMS not only allows to overcome the size limitations of the MSI-X
  table, but also gives the device manufacturer the freedom to store the
  message in arbitrary places, even in host memory which is shared with
  the device.

  There have been several attempts to glue this into the current MSI
  code, but after lengthy discussions it turned out that there is a
  fundamental design problem in the current PCI/MSI-X implementation.
  This needs some historical background.

  When PCI/MSI[-X] support was added around 2003, interrupt management
  was completely different from what we have today in the actively
  developed architectures. Interrupt management was completely
  architecture specific and while there were attempts to create common
  infrastructure the commonalities were rudimentary and just providing
  shared data structures and interfaces so that drivers could be written
  in an architecture agnostic way.

  The initial PCI/MSI[-X] support obviously plugged into this model
  which resulted in some basic shared infrastructure in the PCI core
  code for setting up MSI descriptors, which are a pure software
  construct for holding data relevant for a particular MSI interrupt,
  but the actual association to Linux interrupts was completely
  architecture specific. This model is still supported today to keep
  museum architectures and notorious stragglers alive.

  In 2013 Intel tried to add support for hot-pluggable IO/APICs to the
  kernel, which was creating yet another architecture specific mechanism
  and resulted in an unholy mess on top of the existing horrors of x86
  interrupt handling. The x86 interrupt management code was already an
  incomprehensible maze of indirections between the CPU vector
  management, interrupt remapping and the actual IO/APIC and PCI/MSI[-X]
  implementation.

  At roughly the same time ARM struggled with the ever growing SoC
  specific extensions which were glued on top of the architected GIC
  interrupt controller.

  This resulted in a fundamental redesign of interrupt management and
  provided the today prevailing concept of hierarchical interrupt
  domains. This allowed to disentangle the interactions between x86
  vector domain and interrupt remapping and also allowed ARM to handle
  the zoo of SoC specific interrupt components in a sane way.

  The concept of hierarchical interrupt domains aims to encapsulate the
  functionality of particular IP blocks which are involved in interrupt
  delivery so that they become extensible and pluggable. The X86
  encapsulation looks like this:

                                            |--- device 1
     [Vector]---[Remapping]---[PCI/MSI]--|...
                                            |--- device N

  where the remapping domain is an optional component and in case that
  it is not available the PCI/MSI[-X] domains have the vector domain as
  their parent. This reduced the required interaction between the
  domains pretty much to the initialization phase where it is obviously
  required to establish the proper parent relation ship in the
  components of the hierarchy.

  While in most cases the model is strictly representing the chain of IP
  blocks and abstracting them so they can be plugged together to form a
  hierarchy, the design stopped short on PCI/MSI[-X]. Looking at the
  hardware it's clear that the actual PCI/MSI[-X] interrupt controller
  is not a global entity, but strict a per PCI device entity.

  Here we took a short cut on the hierarchical model and went for the
  easy solution of providing "global" PCI/MSI domains which was possible
  because the PCI/MSI[-X] handling is uniform across the devices. This
  also allowed to keep the existing PCI/MSI[-X] infrastructure mostly
  unchanged which in turn made it simple to keep the existing
  architecture specific management alive.

  A similar problem was created in the ARM world with support for IP
  block specific message storage. Instead of going all the way to stack
  a IP block specific domain on top of the generic MSI domain this ended
  in a construct which provides a "global" platform MSI domain which
  allows overriding the irq_write_msi_msg() callback per allocation.

  In course of the lengthy discussions we identified other abuse of the
  MSI infrastructure in wireless drivers, NTB etc. where support for
  implementation specific message storage was just mindlessly glued into
  the existing infrastructure. Some of this just works by chance on
  particular platforms but will fail in hard to diagnose ways when the
  driver is used on platforms where the underlying MSI interrupt
  management code does not expect the creative abuse.

  Another shortcoming of today's PCI/MSI-X support is the inability to
  allocate or free individual vectors after the initial enablement of
  MSI-X. This results in an works by chance implementation of VFIO (PCI
  pass-through) where interrupts on the host side are not set up upfront
  to avoid resource exhaustion. They are expanded at run-time when the
  guest actually tries to use them. The way how this is implemented is
  that the host disables MSI-X and then re-enables it with a larger
  number of vectors again. That works by chance because most device
  drivers set up all interrupts before the device actually will utilize
  them. But that's not universally true because some drivers allocate a
  large enough number of vectors but do not utilize them until it's
  actually required, e.g. for acceleration support. But at that point
  other interrupts of the device might be in active use and the MSI-X
  disable/enable dance can just result in losing interrupts and
  therefore hard to diagnose subtle problems.

  Last but not least the "global" PCI/MSI-X domain approach prevents to
  utilize PCI/MSI[-X] and PCI/IMS on the same device due to the fact
  that IMS is not longer providing a uniform storage and configuration
  model.

  The solution to this is to implement the missing step and switch from
  global PCI/MSI domains to per device PCI/MSI domains. The resulting
  hierarchy then looks like this:

                              |--- [PCI/MSI] device 1
     [Vector]---[Remapping]---|...
                              |--- [PCI/MSI] device N

  which in turn allows to provide support for multiple domains per
  device:

                              |--- [PCI/MSI] device 1
                              |--- [PCI/IMS] device 1
     [Vector]---[Remapping]---|...
                              |--- [PCI/MSI] device N
                              |--- [PCI/IMS] device N

  This work converts the MSI and PCI/MSI core and the x86 interrupt
  domains to the new model, provides new interfaces for post-enable
  allocation/free of MSI-X interrupts and the base framework for
  PCI/IMS. PCI/IMS has been verified with the work in progress IDXD
  driver.

  There is work in progress to convert ARM over which will replace the
  platform MSI train-wreck. The cleanup of VFIO, NTB and other creative
  "solutions" are in the works as well.

  Drivers:

   - Updates for the LoongArch interrupt chip drivers

   - Support for MTK CIRQv2

   - The usual small fixes and updates all over the place"
