parisc: Migrate exception table users off module.h and onto extable.h
This file was only including module.h for exception table related functions. We've now separated that content out into its own file "extable.h" so now move over to that and avoid all the extra header content in module.h that we don't really need to compile this file.

x86/pkeys: Make protection keys an "eager" feature
Our XSAVE features are divided into two categories: those that
generate FPU exceptions, and those that do not. MPX and pkeys do
not generate FPU exceptions and thus can not be used lazily. We
disable them when lazy mode is forced on.
We have a pair of masks to collect these two sets of features, but
XFEATURE_MASK_PKRU was added to the wrong mask: XFEATURE_MASK_LAZY.
Fix it by moving the feature to XFEATURE_MASK_EAGER.
Note: this only causes problem if you boot with lazy FPU mode
(eagerfpu=off) which is *not* the default. It also only affects
hardware which is not currently publicly available. It looks like
eager mode is going away, but we still need this patch applied
to any kernel that has protection keys and lazy mode, which is 4.6
through 4.8 at this point, and 4.9 if the lazy removal isn't sent
to Linus for 4.9.

x86/apic: Prevent pointless warning messages
Markus reported that he sees new warnings:
APIC: NR_CPUS/possible_cpus limit of 4 reached. Processor 4/0x84 ignored.
APIC: NR_CPUS/possible_cpus limit of 4 reached. Processor 5/0x85 ignored.
This comes from the recent persistant cpuid - nodeid changes. The code
which emits the warning has been called prior to these changes only for
enabled processors. Now it's called for disabled processors as well to get
the possible cpu accounting correct. So if the kernel is compiled for the
number of actual available/enabled CPUs and the BIOS reports disabled CPUs
as well then the above warnings are printed.
That's a pointless exercise as it only makes sense if there are more CPUs
enabled than the kernel supports.
Nake the warning conditional on enabled processors so we are back to the
state before these changes.
Fixes:

x86/acpi: Prevent LAPIC id 0xff from being accounted
Yinghai reported that the recent changes to make the cpuid - nodeid
relationship permanent causes a cpuid ordering regression on a system which
has 2apic enabled..
The reason is that the ACPI local APIC parser has no sanity check for
apicid 0xff, which is an invalid id. So a CPU id for this invalid local
APIC id is allocated and therefor breaks the cpuid ordering.
Add a sanity check to acpi_parse_lapic() which ignores the invalid id.

ARM: SoC: late DT updates for v4.9
These updates have been kept in a separate branch mostly because
they rely on updates to the respective clk drivers to keep the
shared header files in sync.
- The Renesas r8a7796 (R-Car M3-W) platform gets added, this is an
automotive SoC similar to the ⅹ8a7795 chip we already support, but
the dts changes rely on a clock driver change that has been
merged for v4.9 through the clk tree.
- The Amlogic meson-gxbb (S905) platform gains support for a few
drivers merged through our tree, in particular the network and
usb driver changes are required and included here, and also
the clk tree changes.
- The Allwinner platforms have seen a large-scale change to their
clk drivers and the dts file updates must come after that.
This includes the newly added Nextthing GR8 platform, which is
derived from sun5i/A13.
- Some integrator (arm32) changes rely on clk driver changes.
- A single patch for lpc32xx has no such dependency but wasn't
added until just before the merge window

ARM: 64-bit DT updates for v4.8
The 64-bit DT changes are surprisingly small this time, we only add two
SoC platforms: the ZTE ZX296718 Set-top-box SoC and the SocioNext
UniPhier LD11 TV SoC, each with their reference boards.
There are three new machines added for existing SoC platforms:
- The Marvell Armada 8040 development board is an impressive quad-core
Cortex-A72 machine with three 10gbit ethernet interfaces
- Qualcomms DragonBoard 820c single-board computer is their current
high-end phone platform in the 96boards form factor
- Rockchip: Tronsmart Orion r86 set-top-box is a popular mid-range
Android box based on the 8-core rk3368 SoC.

ARM: DT updates for v4.9
These are as usual a very large number of mostly boring updates to
enable devices in existing machines, or to fix minor bugs. Notably,
an ongoing treewide effort to fix warnings caused by an update to the
device tree compiler. These are enabled with "make W=1" at the moment
but can hopefully become the default once all issues have been addressed.
No new SoC platform is added this time around (Armada 395 and Orion
mv88f5181 are slight variations of existing ones), but a significant
number of new dts files are added, which I list by platform:

ARM: SoC driver updates for v4.9
Driver updates for ARM SoCs, including a couple of newly added drivers:
- The Qualcomm external bus interface 2 (EBI2), used in some of their
mobile phone chips for connecting flash memory, LCD displays or
other peripherals
- Secure monitor firmware for Amlogic SoCs, and an NVMEM driver for the
EFUSE based on that firmware interface.
- Perf support for the AppliedMicro X-Gene performance monitor unit
- Reset driver for STMicroelectronics STM32
- Reset driver for SocioNext UniPhier SoCs
Aside from these, there are minor updates to SoC-specific bus,
clocksource, firmware, pinctrl, reset, rtc and pmic drivers.

ARM: SoC 64-bit changes for v4.9
Changes to platform code for 64-bit ARM platforms.
Nearly all of these are defconfig updates to enable new drivers or old
drivers still used on these 64-bit platforms.
Aside from that, we gain initial support for two set-top-box platforms,
both of which already have 32-bit support in arch/arm:
- Broadcom adds abstract support for the bcm7xxx/brcmstb platform,
presumably the respective dts files and more information will
follow at a later point.
- The ZTE ZX296718 SoC for set-top-boxes, a relative of the 32-bit
ZX296702 SoC that we already support.

ARM: SoC platform updates for v4.9
These are updates for platform specific code on 32-bit ARM machines,
essentially anything that can not (yet) be expressed using DT files.
Noteworthy changes include:
- We get support for running in big-endian mode on two platforms:
sunxi (Allwinner) and s3c24xx (old Samsung).
- The recently added Uniphier platform now uses standard PSCI
methods for SMP booting and we remove support for old bootloader
versions that did not support it yet.
- In sunxi, we gain support for the "Nextthing GR8" SoC, which
is a close relative of the Allwinner A13 and R8 chips.
- PXA completes its move over to the generic dmaengine framework
and removes its old private API
- mach-bcm gains support for BCM47189/BCM53573, their first ARM
SoC with integrated 802.11ac wireless networking.

ARM: SoC cleanups for v4.9
The cleanups for v4.9 are a little larger that usual, but thankfully
that is almost exclusively due to removing a significant number of
files that have become obsolete after the still ongoing conversion
of old board files to devicetree.
- for mach-omap2, which is still the largest platform in arch/arm/,
the conversion to DT is finally complete after the Nokia N900 is
now fully supported there, along with the omap3 LDP, and we can
remove those two board files.
If no regressions are found, another large cleanup for the platform
will happen as a follow-up, removing dead code and restructuring
the platform based on being DT-only.
- In mach-imx, similar work is ongoing, but has not come that far.
This time, we remove the obsolete board file for the i.MX1
generation, which like i.MX25, i.MX5, i.MX6, and i.MX7 is now DT-only.
The remaining board files are for i.MX2 and i.MX3 machines
based on old ARM926 or ARM1136 cores that should work with DT
in principle.
- realview has just been converted from board files to DT, and a lot
of code gets removed in the process. This is the last
ARM/Keil/Versatile derived platform that was still using board
files, the other ones being integrator, versatile and vexpress.
We can probably merge the remaining code into a single directory
in the near future.
- clps711x had completed the conversion in v4.8, but we accidentally
left the files in place that should have been deleted then.
Conflicts: two files deleted here have been modified upstream,
the changes can be discarded.

xen-netback: make sure that hashes are not send to unaware frontends
In the case when a frontend only negotiates a single queue with xen- netback it is possible for a skbuff with a s/w hash to result in a hash extra_info segment being sent to the frontend even when no hash algorithm has been configured. (The ndo_select_queue() entry point makes sure the hash is not set if no algorithm is configured, but this entry point is not called when there is only a single queue). This can result in a frontend that is unable to handle extra_info segments being given such a segment, causing it to crash. This patch fixes the problem by clearing the hash in ndo_start_xmit() instead, which is clearly guaranteed to be called irrespective of the number of queues.

Fixing a bug in team driver due to incorrect 'unsigned int' to 'int' conversion
Roundrobin runner of team driver uses 'unsigned int' variable to count the number of sent_packets. Later it is passed to a subroutine team_num_to_port_index(struct team *team, int num) as 'num' and when we reach MAXINT (2**31-1), 'num' becomes negative. This leads to using incorrect hash-bucket for port lookup and as a result, packets are dropped. The fix consists of changing 'int num' to 'unsigned int num'. Testing of a fixed kernel shows that there is no packet drop anymore. Signed-off-by: Alex Sidorenko <alexandre.sidorenko@hpe.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> |

console: don't prefer first registered if DT specifies stdout-path
If a device tree specifies a preferred device for kernel console output
via the stdout-path or linux,stdout-path chosen node properties or the
stdout alias then the kernel ought to honor it & output the kernel
console to that device. As it stands, this isn't the case. Whilst we
parse the stdout-path properties & set an of_stdout variable from
of_alias_scan(), and use that from of_console_check() to determine
whether to add a console device as a preferred console whilst
registering it, we also prefer the first registered console if no other
has been selected at the time of its registration.
This means that if a console other than the one the device tree selects
via stdout-path is registered first, we will switch to using it & when
the stdout-path console is later registered the call to
add_preferred_console() via of_console_check() is too late to do
anything useful. In practice this seems to mean that we switch to the
dummy console device fairly early & see no further console output:
Console: colour dummy device 80x25
console [tty0] enabled
bootconsole [ns16550a0] disabled
Fix this by not automatically preferring the first registered console if
one is specified by the device tree. This allows consoles to be
registered but not enabled, and once the driver for the console selected
by stdout-path calls of_console_check() the driver will be added to the
list of preferred consoles before any other console has been enabled.
When that console is then registered via register_console() it will be
enabled as expected.

cred: simpler, 1D supplementary groups
Current supplementary groups code can massively overallocate memory and is implemented in a way so that access to individual gid is done via 2D array. If number of gids is <= 32, memory allocation is more or less tolerable (140/148 bytes). But if it is not, code allocates full page (!) regardless and, what's even more fun, doesn't reuse small 32-entry array. 2D array means dependent shifts, loads and LEAs without possibility to optimize them (gid is never known at compile time). All of the above is unnecessary. Switch to the usual trailing-zero-len-array scheme. Memory is allocated with kmalloc/vmalloc() and only as much as needed. Accesses become simpler (LEA 8(gi,idx,4) or even without displacement). Maximum number of gids is 65536 which translates to 256KB+8 bytes. I think kernel can handle such allocation. On my usual desktop system with whole 9 (nine) aux groups, struct group_info shrinks from 148 bytes to 44 bytes, yay! Nice side effects: - "gi->gid[i]" is shorter than "GROUP_AT(gi, i)", less typing, - fix little mess in net/ipv4/ping.c should have been using GROUP_AT macro but this point becomes moot, - aux group allocation is persistent and should be accounted as such.

nmi_backtrace: generate one-line reports for idle cpus
When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle, the output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative. Suppress messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN". We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new .cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the interrupted PC to see if it lies within that section. This commit suitably tags x86 and tile idle routines, and only adds in the minimal framework for other architectures.

arch/tile: adopt the new nmi_backtrace framework
Previously tile was rolling its own method of capturing backtrace data in the NMI handlers, but it was relying on running printk() from the NMI handler, which is not always safe. So adopt the nmi_backtrace model (with the new cpumask extension) instead. So we can call the nmi_backtrace code directly from the nmi handler, move the nmi_enter()/exit() into the top-level tile NMI handler. The semantics of the routine change slightly since it is now synchronous with the remote cores completing the backtraces. Previously it was asynchronous, but with protection to avoid starting a new remote backtrace if the old one was still in progress.

nmi_backtrace: do a local dump_stack() instead of a self-NMI
Currently on arm there is code that checks whether it should call dump_stack() explicitly, to avoid trying to raise an NMI when the current context is not preemptible by the backtrace IPI. Similarly, the forthcoming arch/tile support uses an IPI mechanism that does not support generating an NMI to self. Accordingly, move the code that guards this case into the generic mechanism, and invoke it unconditionally whenever we want a backtrace of the current cpu. It seems plausible that in all cases, dump_stack() will generate better information than generating a stack from the NMI handler. The register state will be missing, but that state is likely not particularly helpful in any case. Or, if we think it is helpful, we should be capturing and emitting the current register state in all cases when regs == NULL is passed to nmi_cpu_backtrace().

nmi_backtrace: add more trigger_*_cpu_backtrace() methods
Patch series "improvements to the nmi_backtrace code" v9. This patch series modifies the trigger_xxx_backtrace() NMI-based remote backtracing code to make it more flexible, and makes a few small improvements along the way. The motivation comes from the task isolation code, where there are scenarios where we want to be able to diagnose a case where some cpu is about to interrupt a task-isolated cpu. It can be helpful to see both where the interrupting cpu is, and also an approximation of where the cpu that is being interrupted is. The nmi_backtrace framework allows us to discover the stack of the interrupted cpu. I've tested that the change works as desired on tile, and build-tested x86, arm, mips, and sparc64. For x86 I confirmed that the generic cpuidle stuff as well as the architecture-specific routines are in the new cpuidle section. For arm, mips, and sparc I just build-tested it and made sure the generic cpuidle routines were in the new cpuidle section, but I didn't attempt to figure out which the platform-specific idle routines might be. That might be more usefully done by someone with platform experience in follow-up patches. This patch (of 4): Currently you can only request a backtrace of either all cpus, or all cpus but yourself. It can also be helpful to request a remote backtrace of a single cpu, and since we want that, the logical extension is to support a cpumask as the underlying primitive. This change modifies the existing lib/nmi_backtrace.c code to take a cpumask as its basic primitive, and modifies the linux/nmi.h code to use the new "cpumask" method instead. The existing clients of nmi_backtrace (arm and x86) are converted to using the new cpumask approach in this change. The other users of the backtracing API (sparc64 and mips) are converted to use the cpumask approach rather than the all/allbutself approach. The mips code ignored the "include_self" boolean but with this change it will now also dump a local backtrace if requested.

min/max: remove sparse warnings when they're nested
Currently, when min/max are nested within themselves, sparse will warn:
warning: symbol '_min1' shadows an earlier one
originally declared here
warning: symbol '_min1' shadows an earlier one
originally declared here
warning: symbol '_min2' shadows an earlier one
originally declared here
This also immediately happens when min3() or max3() are used.
Since sparse implements __COUNTER__, we can use __UNIQUE_ID() to
generate unique variable names, avoiding this.

mm, proc: fix region lost in /proc/self/smaps
Recently, Redhat reported that nvml test suite failed on QEMU/KVM, more detailed info please refer to: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1365721 Actually, this bug is not only for NVDIMM/DAX but also for any other file systems. This simple test case abstracted from nvml can easily reproduce this bug in common environment: -------------------------- testcase.c ----------------------------- int is_pmem_proc(const void *addr, size_t len) { const char *caddr = addr; FILE *fp; if ((fp = fopen("/proc/self/smaps", "r")) == NULL) { printf("!/proc/self/smaps"); return 0; } int retval = 0; /* assume false until proven otherwise */ char line[PROCMAXLEN]; /* for fgets() */ char *lo = NULL; /* beginning of current range in smaps file */ char *hi = NULL; /* end of current range in smaps file */ int needmm = 0; /* looking for mm flag for current range */ while (fgets(line, PROCMAXLEN, fp) != NULL) { static const char vmflags[] = "VmFlags:"; static const char mm[] = " wr"; /* check for range line */ if (sscanf(line, "%p-%p", &lo, &hi) == 2) { if (needmm) { /* last range matched, but no mm flag found */ printf("never found mm flag.\n"); break; } else if (caddr < lo) { /* never found the range for caddr */ printf("#######no match for addr %p.\n", caddr); break; } else if (caddr < hi) { /* start address is in this range */ size_t rangelen = (size_t)(hi - caddr); /* remember that matching has started */ needmm = 1; /* calculate remaining range to search for */ if (len > rangelen) { len -= rangelen; caddr += rangelen; printf("matched %zu bytes in range " "%p-%p, %zu left over.\n", rangelen, lo, hi, len); } else { len = 0; printf("matched all bytes in range " "%p-%p.\n", lo, hi); } } } else if (needmm && strncmp(line, vmflags, sizeof(vmflags) - 1) == 0) { if (strstr(&line[sizeof(vmflags) - 1], mm) != NULL) { printf("mm flag found.\n"); if (len == 0) { /* entire range matched */ retval = 1; break; } needmm = 0; /* saw what was needed */ } else { /* mm flag not set for some or all of range */ printf("range has no mm flag.\n"); break; } } } fclose(fp); printf("returning %d.\n", retval); return retval; } void *Addr; size_t Size; /* * worker -- the work each thread performs */ static void * worker(void *arg) { int *ret = (int *)arg; *ret = is_pmem_proc(Addr, Size); return NULL; } int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { if (argc < 2 || argc > 3) { printf("usage: %s file [env].\n", argv[0]); return -1; } int fd = open(argv[1], O_RDWR); struct stat stbuf; fstat(fd, &stbuf); Size = stbuf.st_size; Addr = mmap(0, stbuf.st_size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE, fd, 0); close(fd); pthread_t threads[NTHREAD]; int ret[NTHREAD]; /* kick off NTHREAD threads */ for (int i = 0; i < NTHREAD; i++) pthread_create(&threads[i], NULL, worker, &ret[i]); /* wait for all the threads to complete */ for (int i = 0; i < NTHREAD; i++) pthread_join(threads[i], NULL); /* verify that all the threads return the same value */ for (int i = 1; i < NTHREAD; i++) { if (ret[0] != ret[i]) { printf("Error i %d ret[0] = %d ret[i] = %d.\n", i, ret[0], ret[i]); } } printf("%d", ret[0]); return 0; } It failed as some threads can not find the memory region in "/proc/self/smaps" which is allocated in the main process It is caused by proc fs which uses 'file->version' to indicate the VMA that is the last one has already been handled by read() system call. When the next read() issues, it uses the 'version' to find the VMA, then the next VMA is what we want to handle, the related code is as follows: if (last_addr) { vma = find_vma(mm, last_addr); if (vma && (vma = m_next_vma(priv, vma))) return vma; } However, VMA will be lost if the last VMA is gone, e.g: The process VMA list is A->B->C->D CPU 0 CPU 1 read() system call handle VMA B version = B return to userspace unmap VMA B issue read() again to continue to get the region info find_vma(version) will get VMA C m_next_vma(C) will get VMA D handle D !!! VMA C is lost !!! In order to fix this bug, we make 'file->version' indicate the end address of the current VMA. m_start will then look up a vma which with vma_start < last_vm_end and moves on to the next vma if we found the same or an overlapping vma. This will guarantee that we will not miss an exclusive vma but we can still miss one if the previous vma was shrunk. This is acceptable because guaranteeing "never miss a vma" is simply not feasible. User has to cope with some inconsistencies if the file is not read in one go.

proc: fix timerslack_ns CAP_SYS_NICE check when adjusting self
In changing from checking ptrace_may_access(p, PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH_FSCREDS) to capable(CAP_SYS_NICE), I missed that ptrace_my_access succeeds when p == current, but the CAP_SYS_NICE doesn't. Thus while the previous commit was intended to loosen the needed privileges to modify a processes timerslack, it needlessly restricted a task modifying its own timerslack via the proc/<tid>/timerslack_ns (which is permitted also via the PR_SET_TIMERSLACK method). This patch corrects this by checking if p == current before checking the CAP_SYS_NICE value. This patch applies on top of my two previous patches currently in -mm Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1471906870-28624-1-git-send-email-john.stultz@linaro.org Signed-off-by: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org> Acked-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: "Serge E.

proc: add LSM hook checks to /proc/<tid>/timerslack_ns
As requested, this patch checks the existing LSM hooks task_getscheduler/task_setscheduler when reading or modifying the task's timerslack value. Previous versions added new get/settimerslack LSM hooks, but since they checked the same PROCESS__SET/GETSCHED values as existing hooks, it was suggested we just use the existing ones.

proc: relax /proc/<tid>/timerslack_ns capability requirements
When an interface to allow a task to change another tasks timerslack was first proposed, it was suggested that something greater then CAP_SYS_NICE would be needed, as a task could be delayed further then what normally could be done with nice adjustments. So CAP_SYS_PTRACE was adopted instead for what became the /proc/<tid>/timerslack_ns interface. However, for Android (where this feature originates), giving the system_server CAP_SYS_PTRACE would allow it to observe and modify all tasks memory. This is considered too high a privilege level for only needing to change the timerslack. After some discussion, it was realized that a CAP_SYS_NICE process can set a task as SCHED_FIFO, so they could fork some spinning processes and set them all SCHED_FIFO 99, in effect delaying all other tasks for an infinite amount of time. So as a CAP_SYS_NICE task can already cause trouble for other tasks, using it as a required capability for accessing and modifying /proc/<tid>/timerslack_ns seems sufficient. Thus, this patch loosens the capability requirements to CAP_SYS_NICE and removes CAP_SYS_PTRACE, simplifying some of the code flow as well. This is technically an ABI change, but as the feature just landed in 4.6, I suspect no one is yet using it.

vsnprintf() is slow because:
1. format_decode() is busy looking for format specifier: 2 branches
per character (not in this case, but in others)
2. approximately million branches while parsing format mini language
and everywhere
3. just look at what string() does /proc/vmstat is good case because
most of its content are strings
