<content type='text'>
Migration entries do not need to be removed.

The swap subsystem has been (and still is being) heavily reworked. The
current implementation of ptep_zap_softleaf_entry() has been slowly
modified and is now wrong, since it unconditionally calls
swap_put_entries_direct() for both swap and migration entries.

Remove ptep_zap_softleaf_entry() altogether, merge the path for proper
swap entries directly in the only caller, and ignore migration entries.

<title>KVM: s390: Avoid potentially sleeping while atomic when zapping pages</title>

Factor out try_get_locked_pte(), which behaves similarly to
get_locked_pte(), but does not attempt to allocate missing tables and
performs a spin_trylock() instead of blocking.

The new function is also exported, since it will be used in other
patches.

If intermediate entries are missing, there can be no pte swap entry to
free, so it's safe to ignore them.

This avoids potentially sleeping while atomic.

<title>s390/mm: Fix phys_to_folio() usage in do_secure_storage_access()</title>

<id>b95e0e792822bad8fc9eb33ea3a90005e29e75e9</id>
<content type='text'>
In case of a Secure-Storage-Access exception the effective aka virtual
address which caused the exception is contained within the TEID.

do_secure_storage_access() incorrectly uses phys_to_folio() instead of
virt_to_folio() to translate the virtual address to the corresponding
folio.

Fix this by using virt_to_folio() instead of phys_to_folio().

While at it, polish the kerneldoc.

Nobody except memory.c should really set that parameter to non-NULL.  So
let's just drop it and make unmap_mapping_range_vma() use
zap_page_range_single_batched() instead.

<title>mm: cache struct page for empty_zero_page and return it from ZERO_PAGE()</title>

<id>26513781d1b3a1e8b4b576ed62751d604a69b374</id>

For most architectures every invocation of ZERO_PAGE() does
virt_to_page(empty_zero_page).  But empty_zero_page is in BSS and it is
enough to get its struct page once at initialization time and then use it
whenever a zero page should be accessed.

Add yet another __zero_page variable that will be initialized as
virt_to_page(empty_zero_page) for most architectures in a weak
arch_setup_zero_pages() function.

For architectures that use colored zero pages (MIPS and s390) rename their
setup_zero_pages() to arch_setup_zero_pages() and make it global rather
than static.

For architectures that cannot use virt_to_page() for BSS (arm64 and
sparc64) add override of arch_setup_zero_pages().

<title>s390/mm: Add missing secure storage access fixups for donated memory</title>

<id>b00be77302d7ec4ad0367bb236494fce7172b730</id>
<content type='text'>
There are special cases where secure storage access exceptions happen
in a kernel context for pages that don't have the PG_arch_1 bit
set. That bit is set for non-exported guest secure storage (memory)
but is absent on storage donated to the Ultravisor since the kernel
isn't allowed to export donated pages.

Prior to this patch we would try to export the page by calling
arch_make_folio_accessible() which would instantly return since the
arch bit is absent signifying that the page was already exported and
no further action is necessary. This leads to secure storage access
exception loops which can never be resolved.

With this patch we unconditionally try to export and if that fails we
fixup.

<title>s390/pfault: Fix virtual vs physical address confusion</title>

<id>d879ac6756b662a085a743e76023c768c3241579</id>
<content type='text'>
When Linux is running as guest, runs a user space process and the
user space process accesses a page that the host has paged out,
the guest gets a pfault interrupt and schedules a different process.
Without this mechanism the host would have to suspend the whole
virtual CPU until the page has been paged in.

To setup the pfault interrupt the real address of parameter list
should be passed to DIAGNOSE 0x258, but a virtual address is passed
instead.

That has a performance impact, since the pfault setup never succeeds,
the interrupt is never delivered to a guest and the whole virtual CPU
is suspended as result.

<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

<id>bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".
