Make the following simplifications to the kconfig options for choosing
CRC implementations for CRC32 and CRC_T10DIF:
1. Make the option to disable the arch-optimized code be visible only
when CONFIG_EXPERT=y.
2. Make a single option control the inclusion of the arch-optimized code
for all enabled CRC variants.
3. Make CRC32_SARWATE (a.k.a. slice-by-1 or byte-by-byte) be the only
generic CRC32 implementation.
The result is there is now just one option, CRC_OPTIMIZATIONS, which is
default y and can be disabled only when CONFIG_EXPERT=y.
Rationale:
1. Enabling the arch-optimized code is nearly always the right choice.
However, people trying to build the tiniest kernel possible would
find some use in disabling it. Anything we add to CRC32 is de facto
unconditional, given that CRC32 gets selected by something in nearly
all kernels. And unfortunately enabling the arch CRC code does not
eliminate the need to build the generic CRC code into the kernel too,
due to CPU feature dependencies. The size of the arch CRC code will
also increase slightly over time as more CRC variants get added and
more implementations targeting different instruction set extensions
get added. Thus, it seems worthwhile to still provide an option to
disable it, but it should be considered an expert-level tweak.
2. Considering the use case described in (1), there doesn't seem to be
sufficient value in making the arch-optimized CRC code be
independently configurable for different CRC variants. Note also
that multiple variants were already grouped together, e.g.
CONFIG_CRC32 actually enables three different variants of CRC32.
3. The bit-by-bit implementation is uselessly slow, whereas slice-by-n
for n=4 and n=8 use tables that are inconveniently large: 4096 bytes
and 8192 bytes respectively, compared to 1024 bytes for n=1. Higher
n gives higher instruction-level parallelism, so higher n easily wins
on traditional microbenchmarks on most CPUs. However, the larger
tables, which are accessed randomly, can be harmful in real-world
situations where the dcache may be cold or useful data may need be
evicted from the dcache. Meanwhile, today most architectures have
much faster CRC32 implementations using dedicated CRC32 instructions
or carryless multiplication instructions anyway, which make the
generic code obsolete in most cases especially on long messages.
Another reason for going with n=1 is that this is already what is
used by all the other CRC variants in the kernel. CRC32 was unique
in having support for larger tables. But as per the above this can
be considered an outdated optimization.
The standardization on slice-by-1 a.k.a. CRC32_SARWATE makes much of
the code in lib/crc32.c unused. A later patch will clean that up.

In preparation for making the CRC-T10DIF library directly optimized for
each architecture, like what has been done for CRC32, get rid of the
weird layering where crc_t10dif_update() calls into the crypto API.
Instead, move crc_t10dif_generic() into the crc-t10dif library module,
and make crc_t10dif_update() just call crc_t10dif_generic().
Acceleration will be reintroduced via crc_t10dif_arch() in the following

Now that the lower level __crc32c_le() library function is optimized for
each architecture, make crc32c() just call that instead of taking an
inefficient and error-prone detour through the shash API.
Note: a future cleanup should make crc32c_le() be the actual library
function instead of __crc32c_le(). That will require updating callers
of __crc32c_le() to use crc32c_le() instead, and updating callers of
crc32c_le() that expect a 'const void *' arg to expect 'const u8 *'
instead. Similarly, a future cleanup should remove LIBCRC32C by making
everyone who is selecting it just select CRC32 directly instead.

Currently the CRC32 library functions are defined as weak symbols, and
the arm64 and riscv architectures override them.
This method of arch-specific overrides has the limitation that it only
works when both the base and arch code is built-in. Also, it makes the
arch-specific code be silently not used if it is accidentally built with
lib-y instead of obj-y; unfortunately the RISC-V code does this.
This commit reorganizes the code to have explicit *_arch() functions
that are called when they are enabled, similar to how some of the crypto
library code works (e.g. chacha_crypt() calls chacha_crypt_arch()).
Make the existing kconfig choice for the CRC32 implementation also
control whether the arch-optimized implementation (if one is available)
is enabled or not. Make it enabled by default if CRC32 is also enabled.
The result is that arch-optimized CRC32 library functions will be
included automatically when appropriate, but it is now possible to
disable them. They can also now be built as a loadable module if the
CRC32 library functions happen to be used only by loadable modules, in
which case the arch and base CRC32 modules will be automatically loaded
via direct symbol dependency when appropriate.

DIMLIB's capabilities are supplied by the dim, net_dim, and
rdma_dim objects, and dim's interfaces solely act as a base for
net_dim and rdma_dim and are not explicitly used anywhere else.
rdma_dim is utilized by the infiniband driver, while net_dim
is for network devices, excluding the soc/fsl driver.
In this patch, net_dim relies on some NET's interfaces, thus
DIMLIB needs to explicitly depend on the NET Kconfig.
The soc/fsl driver uses the functions provided by net_dim, so
it also needs to depend on NET.

Hardcoding the number of CPUs at compile time does improve code
generation, but if you get it wrong the result will be confusion.
We already limited this earlier to only "experts" (see commit
fe5759d5bf "cpumask: limit visibility of FORCE_NR_CPUS"), but with
distro kernel configs often having EXPERT enabled, that turns out to not
be much of a limit.
To quote the philosophers at Disney: "Everyone can be an expert. And
when everyone's an expert, no one will be".
There's a runtime warning if you then set nr_cpus to anything but the
forced number, but apparently that can be ignored too [1] and by then
it's pretty much too late anyway.
If we had some real way to limit this to "embedded only", maybe it would
be worth it, but let's see if anybody even notices that the option is
gone. We need to simplify kernel configuration anyway.

Pull CXL (Compute Express Link) updates from Dan Williams:
"The main new functionality this time is work to allow Linux to
natively handle CXL link protocol errors signalled via PCIe AER for
current generation CXL platforms. This required some enlightenment of
the PCIe AER core to workaround the fact that current generation RCH
(Restricted CXL Host) platforms physically hide topology details and
registers via a mechanism called RCRB (Root Complex Register Block).
The next major highlight is reworks to address bugs in parsing region
configurations for next generation VH (Virtual Host) topologies. The
old broken algorithm is replaced with a simpler one that significantly
increases the number of region configurations supported by Linux. This
is again relevant for error handling so that forward and reverse
address translation of memory errors can be carried out by Linux for
memory regions instantiated by platform firmware.
As for other cross-tree work, the ACPI table parsing code has been
refactored for reuse parsing the "CDAT" structure which is an
ACPI-like data structure that is reported by CXL devices. That work is
in preparation for v6.8 support for CXL QoS. Think of this as dynamic
generation of NUMA node topology information generated by Linux rather
than platform firmware.
Lastly, a number of internal object lifetime issues have been resolved
along with misc. fixes and feature updates (decoders_committed sysfs
ABI).
Summary:
- Add support for RCH (Restricted CXL Host) Error recovery
- Fix several region assembly bugs
- Fix mem-device lifetime issues relative to the sanitize command and
RCH topology.
- Refactor ACPI table parsing for CDAT parsing re-use in preparation
for CXL QOS support"

lwq is a FIFO single-linked queue that only requires a spinlock
for dequeueing, which happens in process context. Enqueueing is atomic
with no spinlock and can happen in any context.
This is particularly useful when work items are queued from BH or IRQ
context, and when they are handled one at a time by dedicated threads.
Avoiding any locking when enqueueing means there is no need to disable
BH or interrupts, which is generally best avoided (particularly when
there are any RT tasks on the machine).
This solution is superior to using "list_head" links because we need
half as many pointers in the data structures, and because list_head
lists would need locking to add items to the queue.
This solution is superior to a bespoke solution as all locking and
container_of casting is integrated, so the interface is simple.
Despite the similar name, this solution meets a distinctly different
need to kfifo. kfifo provides a fixed sized circular buffer to which
data can be added at one end and removed at the other, and does not
provide any locking. lwq does not have any size limit and works with
data structures (objects?) rather than data (bytes).
A unit test for basic functionality, which runs at boot time, is included.

* C-SKY
* Hexagon
* Nios II
* OpenRISC
* s390
* User-Mode Linux
* Xtensa
All other architectures select HAS_IOPORT at least conditionally.
The "depends on" relations on HAS_IOPORT in drivers as well as ifdefs
for HAS_IOPORT specific sections will be added in subsequent patches on

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"
