s390 can do more fine-grained handling of spurious TLB protection faults,
when there also is the PTE pointer available.

Therefore, pass on the PTE pointer to flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault() as an
additional parameter.

This will add no functional change to other architectures, but those with
private flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault() implementations need to be made
aware of the new parameter.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Daniel Verkamp has contributed a memfd series ("mm/memfd: add
   F_SEAL_EXEC") which permits the setting of the memfd execute bit at
   memfd creation time, with the option of sealing the state of the X
   bit.

 - Peter Xu adds a patch series ("mm/hugetlb: Make huge_pte_offset()
   thread-safe for pmd unshare") which addresses a rare race condition
   related to PMD unsharing.

 - Several folioification patch serieses from Matthew Wilcox, Vishal
   Moola, Sidhartha Kumar and Lorenzo Stoakes

 - Johannes Weiner has a series ("mm: push down lock_page_memcg()")
   which does perform some memcg maintenance and cleanup work.

 - SeongJae Park has added DAMOS filtering to DAMON, with the series
   "mm/damon/core: implement damos filter".

   These filters provide users with finer-grained control over DAMOS's
   actions. SeongJae has also done some DAMON cleanup work.

 - Kairui Song adds a series ("Clean up and fixes for swap").

 - Vernon Yang contributed the series "Clean up and refinement for maple
   tree".

 - Yu Zhao has contributed the "mm: multi-gen LRU: memcg LRU" series. It
   adds to MGLRU an LRU of memcgs, to improve the scalability of global
   reclaim.

 - David Hildenbrand has added some userfaultfd cleanup work in the
   series "mm: uffd-wp + change_protection() cleanups".

 - Christoph Hellwig has removed the generic_writepages() library
   function in the series "remove generic_writepages".

 - Baolin Wang has performed some maintenance on the compaction code in
   his series "Some small improvements for compaction".

 - Sidhartha Kumar is doing some maintenance work on struct page in his
   series "Get rid of tail page fields".

 - David Hildenbrand contributed some cleanup, bugfixing and
   generalization of pte management and of pte debugging in his series
   "mm: support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE on all architectures with
   swap PTEs".

 - Mel Gorman and Neil Brown have removed the __GFP_ATOMIC allocation
   flag in the series "Discard __GFP_ATOMIC".

 - Sergey Senozhatsky has improved zsmalloc's memory utilization with
   his series "zsmalloc: make zspage chain size configurable".

 - Joey Gouly has added prctl() support for prohibiting the creation of
   writeable+executable mappings.

   The previous BPF-based approach had shortcomings. See "mm: In-kernel
   support for memory-deny-write-execute (MDWE)".

 - Waiman Long did some kmemleak cleanup and bugfixing in the series
   "mm/kmemleak: Simplify kmemleak_cond_resched() &amp; fix UAF".

 - T.J. Alumbaugh has contributed some MGLRU cleanup work in his series
   "mm: multi-gen LRU: improve".

 - Jiaqi Yan has provided some enhancements to our memory error
   statistics reporting, mainly by presenting the statistics on a
   per-node basis. See the series "Introduce per NUMA node memory error
   statistics".

 - Mel Gorman has a second and hopefully final shot at fixing a CPU-hog
   regression in compaction via his series "Fix excessive CPU usage
   during compaction".

 - Christoph Hellwig does some vmalloc maintenance work in the series
   "cleanup vfree and vunmap".

 - Christoph Hellwig has removed block_device_operations.rw_page() in
   ths series "remove -&gt;rw_page".

 - We get some maple_tree improvements and cleanups in Liam Howlett's
   series "VMA tree type safety and remove __vma_adjust()".

 - Suren Baghdasaryan has done some work on the maintainability of our
   vm_flags handling in the series "introduce vm_flags modifier
   functions".

 - Some pagemap cleanup and generalization work in Mike Rapoport's
   series "mm, arch: add generic implementation of pfn_valid() for
   FLATMEM" and "fixups for generic implementation of pfn_valid()"

 - Baoquan He has done some work to make /proc/vmallocinfo and
   /proc/kcore better represent the real state of things in his series
   "mm/vmalloc.c: allow vread() to read out vm_map_ram areas".

 - Jason Gunthorpe rationalized the GUP system's interface to the rest
   of the kernel in the series "Simplify the external interface for
   GUP".

 - SeongJae Park wishes to migrate people from DAMON's debugfs interface
   over to its sysfs interface. To support this, we'll temporarily be
   printing warnings when people use the debugfs interface. See the
   series "mm/damon: deprecate DAMON debugfs interface".

 - Andrey Konovalov provided the accurately named "lib/stackdepot: fixes
   and clean-ups" series.

 - Huang Ying has provided a dramatic reduction in migration's TLB flush
   IPI rates with the series "migrate_pages(): batch TLB flushing".

 - Arnd Bergmann has some objtool fixups in "objtool warning fixes".

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:

 - Support for arm64 SME 2 and 2.1. SME2 introduces a new 512-bit
   architectural register (ZT0, for the look-up table feature) that
   Linux needs to save/restore

 - Include TPIDR2 in the signal context and add the corresponding
   kselftests

 - Perf updates: Arm SPEv1.2 support, HiSilicon uncore PMU updates, ACPI
   support to the Marvell DDR and TAD PMU drivers, reset DTM_PMU_CONFIG
   (ARM CMN) at probe time

 - Support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS on arm64

 - Permit EFI boot with MMU and caches on. Instead of cleaning the
   entire loaded kernel image to the PoC and disabling the MMU and
   caches before branching to the kernel bare metal entry point, leave
   the MMU and caches enabled and rely on EFI's cacheable 1:1 mapping of
   all of system RAM to populate the initial page tables

 - Expose the AArch32 (compat) ELF_HWCAP features to user in an arm64
   kernel (the arm32 kernel only defines the values)

 - Harden the arm64 shadow call stack pointer handling: stash the shadow
   stack pointer in the task struct on interrupt, load it directly from
   this structure

 - Signal handling cleanups to remove redundant validation of size
   information and avoid reading the same data from userspace twice

 - Refactor the hwcap macros to make use of the automatically generated
   ID registers. It should make new hwcaps writing less error prone

 - Further arm64 sysreg conversion and some fixes

 - arm64 kselftest fixes and improvements

 - Pointer authentication cleanups: don't sign leaf functions, unify
   asm-arch manipulation

 - Pseudo-NMI code generation optimisations

 - Minor fixes for SME and TPIDR2 handling

 - Miscellaneous updates: ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER is now selectable,
   replace strtobool() to kstrtobool() in the cpufeature.c code, apply
   dynamic shadow call stack in two passes, intercept pfn changes in
   set_pte_at() without the required break-before-make sequence, attempt

Changing pfn on a user page table mapped entry, without first going through
break-before-make (BBM) procedure is unsafe. This just updates set_pte_at()
to intercept such changes, via an updated pgattr_change_is_safe(). This new
check happens via __check_racy_pte_update(), which has now been renamed as
__check_safe_pte_update().

<title>arm64/mm: Define dummy pud_user_exec() when using 2-level page-table</title>

<id>4e4ff23a35ee3a145fbc8378ecfeaab2d235cddd</id>
<content type='text'>
With only two levels of page-table, the generic 'pud_*' macros are
implemented using dummy operations in pgtable-nopmd.h. Since commit
730a11f982e6 ("arm64/mm: add pud_user_exec() check in
pud_user_accessible_page()"), pud_user_accessible_page() unconditionally
calls pud_user_exec(), which is an arm64-specific helper and therefore
isn't defined by pgtable-nopmd.h. This results in a build failure for
configurations with only two levels of page table:

   arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable.h: In function 'pud_user_accessible_page':
&gt;&gt; arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable.h:870:51: error: implicit declaration of function 'pud_user_exec'; did you mean 'pmd_user_exec'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
     870 |         return pud_leaf(pud) &amp;&amp; (pud_user(pud) || pud_user_exec(pud));
         |                                                   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~
         |                                                   pmd_user_exec

Fix the problem by defining pud_user_exec() as pud_user() in this case.

<title>arm64: errata: Workaround possible Cortex-A715 [ESR|FAR]_ELx corruption</title>

<id>5db568e748f6fb7d0d2e1bff4c2698ad4f50b982</id>
<content type='text'>
If a Cortex-A715 cpu sees a page mapping permissions change from executable
to non-executable, it may corrupt the ESR_ELx and FAR_ELx registers, on the
next instruction abort caused by permission fault.

Only user-space does executable to non-executable permission transition via
mprotect() system call which calls ptep_modify_prot_start() and ptep_modify
_prot_commit() helpers, while changing the page mapping. The platform code
can override these helpers via __HAVE_ARCH_PTEP_MODIFY_PROT_TRANSACTION.

Work around the problem via doing a break-before-make TLB invalidation, for
all executable user space mappings, that go through mprotect() system call.
This overrides ptep_modify_prot_start() and ptep_modify_prot_commit(), via
defining HAVE_ARCH_PTEP_MODIFY_PROT_TRANSACTION on the platform thus giving
an opportunity to intercept user space exec mappings, and do the necessary
TLB invalidation. Similar interceptions are also implemented for HugeTLB.

On arm64, pmd_leaf() will return true even if the pmd is invalid due to
pmd_present_invalid() check. So in pmdp_invalidate() the file_map_count
will not only decrease once but also increase once. Then in set_pte_at(),
the file_map_count increase again, and so trigger BUG_ON() unexpectedly.

Add !pmd_present_invalid() check in pmd_user_accessible_page() to fix the
problem.
