AVX-512 supports 3-input XORs via the vpternlogd (or vpternlogq)
instruction with immediate 0x96. This approach, vs. the alternative of
two vpxor instructions, is already used in the CRC, AES-GCM, and AES-XTS
code, since it reduces the instruction count and is faster on some CPUs.
Make blake2s_compress_avx512() take advantage of it too.

Just before returning, blake2s_compress_ssse3() and
blake2s_compress_avx512() store updated values to the 'h', 't', and 'f'
fields of struct blake2s_ctx. But 'f' is always unchanged (which is
correct; only the C code changes it). So, there's no need to write to
'f'. Use 64-bit stores (movq and vmovq) instead of 128-bit stores
(movdqu and vmovdqu) so that only 't' is written.

Various cleanups for readability. No change to the generated code:
- Add some comments
- Add #defines for arguments
- Rename some labels
- Use decimal constants instead of hex where it makes sense.
(The pshufd immediates intentionally remain as hex.)
- Add blank lines when there's a logical break
The round loop still could use some work, but this is at least a start.

In the C code, the 'inc' argument to the assembly functions
blake2s_compress_ssse3() and blake2s_compress_avx512() is declared with
type u32, matching blake2s_compress(). The assembly code then reads it
from the 64-bit %rcx. However, the ABI doesn't guarantee zero-extension
to 64 bits, nor do gcc or clang guarantee it. Therefore, fix these
functions to read this argument from the 32-bit %ecx.
In theory, this bug could have caused the wrong 'inc' value to be used,
causing incorrect BLAKE2s hashes. In practice, probably not: I've fixed
essentially this same bug in many other assembly files too, but there's
never been a real report of it having caused a problem. In x86_64, all
writes to 32-bit registers are zero-extended to 64 bits. That results
in zero-extension in nearly all situations. I've only been able to
demonstrate a lack of zero-extension with a somewhat contrived example
involving truncation, e.g. when the C code has a u64 variable holding
0x1234567800000040 and passes it as a u32 expecting it to be truncated
to 0x40 (64). But that's not what the real code does, of course.

Some z/Architecture processors can compute a SHA-3 digest in a single
instruction. arch/s390/crypto/ already uses this capability to optimize
the SHA-3 crypto_shash algorithms.
Use this capability to implement the sha3_224(), sha3_256(), sha3_384(),
and sha3_512() library functions too.

Note: the original data from Harald was given in the form of a graph for
each length, showing the distribution of throughputs from 500 runs. I
guesstimated the peak of each one.
Harald also reported that the generic SHA-3 code was at most 259 MB/s
(https://lore.kernel.org/r/c39f6b6c110def0095e5da5becc12085@linux.ibm.com/).
So as expected, the earlier commit that optimized sha3_absorb_blocks()
and sha3_keccakf() is the more important one; it optimized the Keccak
permutation which is the most performance-critical part of SHA-3.
Still, this additional commit does notably improve performance further
on some lengths.

In crypto/sha3_generic.c, the keccakf() function calls keccakf_round()
to do four of Keccak-f's five step mappings. However, it does not do
the Iota step mapping - presumably because that is dependent on round
number, whereas Theta, Rho, Pi and Chi are not.
Note that the keccakf_round() function needs to be explicitly
non-inlined on certain architectures as gcc's produced output will (or
used to) use over 1KiB of stack space if inlined.
Now, this code was copied more or less verbatim into lib/crypto/sha3.c,
so that has the same aesthetic issue. Fix this there by passing the
round number into sha3_keccakf_one_round_generic() and doing the Iota
step mapping there.
crypto/sha3_generic.c is left untouched as that will be converted to use
lib/crypto/sha3.c at some point.

disable this code on them so that it's not accidentally used.
Note: for future-proofing, use !CPU_BIG_ENDIAN instead of

This will allow in-kernel users such as btrfs to use BLAKE2b without

way, the BLAKE2s and BLAKE2b code is kept consistent. Therefore, it
borrows the SPDX-License-Identifier and Copyright from
lib/crypto/blake2s.c rather than crypto/blake2b_generic.c.
The library API uses 'struct blake2b_ctx', consistent with other

Reorder the parameters of blake2s() from (out, in, key, outlen, inlen,
keylen) to (key, keylen, in, inlen, out, outlen).
This aligns BLAKE2s with the common conventions of pairing buffers and
their lengths, and having outputs follow inputs. This is widely used
elsewhere in lib/crypto/ and crypto/, and even elsewhere in the BLAKE2s
code itself such as blake2s_init_key() and blake2s_final(). So
blake2s() was a bit of an exception.
Notably, this results in the same order as hmac_*_usingrawkey().
Note that since the type signature changed, it's not possible for a

Add FIPS cryptographic algorithm self-tests for all SHA-1 and SHA-2
algorithms. Following the "Implementation Guidance for FIPS 140-3"
document, to achieve this it's sufficient to just test a single test
vector for each of HMAC-SHA1, HMAC-SHA256, and HMAC-SHA512.
Just run these tests in the initcalls, following the example of e.g.
crypto/kdf_sp800108.c. Note that this should meet the FIPS self-test
requirement even in the built-in case, given that the initcalls run
before userspace, storage, network, etc. are accessible.
This does not fix a regression, seeing as lib/ has had SHA-1 support
since 2005 and SHA-256 support since 2018. Neither ever had FIPS
self-tests. Moreover, fips=1 support has always been an unfinished
feature upstream. However, with lib/ now being used more widely, it's
now seeing more scrutiny and people seem to want these now [1][2].

When running parameterized tests, each test case is initialized with
kunit_init_test(). This function takes the test_case->log as a parameter
but it clears it via string_stream_clear() on each iteration.
This results in only the log from the last parameter being preserved in
the test_case->log and the results from the previous parameters are lost
from the debugfs entry.
Fix this by manually setting the param_test.log to the test_case->log

freader_fetch currently reads from at most two folios. When a read spans
into a third folio, the overflow bytes are copied adjacent to the second
folio’s data instead of being handled as a separate folio.
This patch modifies fetch algorithm to support reading from many folios.

The previous implementation incorrectly assumed the original type of
'priv' was void**, leading to an unnecessary and misleading
cast. Correct the cast of the 'priv' pointer in test_dev_action() to
its actual type, long*, removing an unnecessary cast.
As an additional benefit, this fixes an out-of-bounds CHERI fault on
hardware with architectural capabilities. The original implementation
tried to store a capability-sized pointer using the priv
pointer. However, the priv pointer's capability only granted access to
the memory region of its original long type, leading to a bounds
violation since the size of a long is smaller than the size of a
capability. This change ensures that the pointer usage respects the
capabilities' bounds.

KHO test stores physical addresses of the preserved folios directly in
fdt. Use kho_preserve_vmalloc() instead of it and kho_restore_vmalloc()
to retrieve the addresses after kexec.
This makes the test more scalable from one side and adds tests coverage
for kho_preserve_vmalloc() from the other.

an anon vma.
- The 2 patch series "mm: do not assume file == vma->vm_file in
compat_vma_mmap_prepare()" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves us further towards
removal of file_operations.mmap(). This patchset concentrates upon
clearing up the treatment of stacked filesystems.

Merge tag 'slab-for-6.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab
Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
- A new layer for caching objects for allocation and free via percpu
arrays called sheaves.
The aim is to combine the good parts of SLAB (lower-overhead and
simpler percpu caching, compared to SLUB) without the past issues
with arrays for freeing remote NUMA node objects and their flushing.
It also allows more efficient kfree_rcu(), and cheaper object
preallocations for cases where the exact number of objects is
unknown, but an upper bound is.
Currently VMAs and maple nodes are using this new caching, with a
plan to enable it for all caches and remove the complex SLUB fastpath
based on cpu (partial) slabs and this_cpu_cmpxchg_double().
(Vlastimil Babka, with Liam Howlett and Pedro Falcato for the maple
tree changes)
- Re-entrant kmalloc_nolock(), which allows opportunistic allocations
from NMI and tracing/kprobe contexts.
Building on prior page allocator and memcg changes, it will result in
removing BPF-specific caches on top of slab (Alexei Starovoitov)
- Various fixes and cleanups. (Kuan-Wei Chiu, Matthew Wilcox, Suren
Baghdasaryan, Ye Liu)

- Target lockdep assertions (Max)
- Keep-alive updates for discovery (Alastair)
- Suspend quirk (Georg)
- MD pull request via Yu:
- Add support for a lockless bitmap.
A key feature for the new bitmap are that the IO fastpath is
lockless. If a user issues lots of write IO to the same bitmap
bit in a short time, only the first write has additional overhead
to update bitmap bit, no additional overhead for the following
writes.
By supporting only resync or recover written data, means in the
case creating new array or replacing with a new disk, there is no
need to do a full disk resync/recovery.
- Switch ->getgeo() and ->bios_param() to using struct gendisk rather
than struct block_device.
- Rust block changes via Andreas. This series adds configuration via
configfs and remote completion to the rnull driver. The series also
includes a set of changes to the rust block device driver API: a few
cleanup patches, and a few features supporting the rnull changes.
The series removes the raw buffer formatting logic from
`kernel::block` and improves the logic available in `kernel::string`
to support the same use as the removed logic.
- floppy arch cleanups
- Reduce the number of dereferencing needed for ublk commands
- Restrict supported sockets for nbd. Mostly done to eliminate a class
of issues perpetually reported by syzbot, by using nonsensical socket
setups.

- Fix a few issues around atomic writes
- Improve DMA interation for integrity requests
- Improve how iovecs are treated with regards to O_DIRECT aligment
constraints.
We used to require each segment to adhere to the constraints, now
only the request as a whole needs to.
- Clean up and improve p2p support, enabling use of p2p for metadata
payloads
- Improve locking of request lookup, using SRCU where appropriate

- A seven patch series adds a new parameterized test features
KUnit parameterized tests currently support two primary methods for
getting parameters:
1. Defining custom logic within a generate_params() function.
2. Using the KUNIT_ARRAY_PARAM() and KUNIT_ARRAY_PARAM_DESC()
macros with a pre-defined static array and passing
the created *_gen_params() to KUNIT_CASE_PARAM().
These methods present limitations when dealing with dynamically
generated parameter arrays, or in scenarios where populating parameters
sequentially via generate_params() is inefficient or overly complex.
These limitations are fixed with a parameterized test method.
- Fixes issues in kunit build artifacts cleanup,
- Fixes parsing skipped test problem in kselftest framework,
- Enables PCI on UML without triggering WARN()
- a few other fixes and adds support for new configs such as MIPS

First set of RISC-V updates for the v6.18 merge window, including:
- Replacement of __ASSEMBLY__ with __ASSEMBLER__ in header files (other
architectures have already merged this type of cleanup)
- The introduction of ioremap_wc() for RISC-V
- Cleanup of the RISC-V kprobes code to use mostly-extant macros rather than
open code
- A RISC-V kprobes unit test
- An architecture-specific endianness swap macro set implementation,
leveraging some dedicated RISC-V instructions for this purpose if they
are available
- The ability to identity and communicate to userspace the presence of a
MIPS P8700-specific ISA extension, and to leverage its MIPS-specific PAUSE
implementation in cpu_relax()
- Several other miscellaneous cleanups
