The GSBASE upper limit exists to prevent user code from confusing
the paranoid idtentry path. The FSBASE upper limit is just for
consistency. There's no need to enforce a smaller limit for 32-bit
tasks.
Just use TASK_SIZE_MAX. This simplifies the logic and will save a
few bytes of code.

This erratum essentially causes the CPU to forget which privilege
level it is operating on (kernel vs. user) for the purposes of MPX.
This erratum can only be triggered when a system is not using
Supervisor Mode Execution Prevention (SMEP). Our workaround for
the erratum is to ensure that MPX can only be used in cases where
SMEP is present in the processor and is enabled.
This erratum only affects Core processors. Atom is unaffected.
But, there is no architectural way to determine Atom vs. Core.
So, we just apply this workaround to all processors. It's
possible that it will mistakenly disable MPX on some Atom
processsors or future unaffected Core processors. There are
currently no processors that have MPX and not SMEP. It would
take something akin to a hypervisor masking SMEP out on an Atom
processor for this to present itself on current hardware.
More details can be found at:

"
SKD046 Branch Instructions May Initialize MPX Bound Registers Incorrectly
Problem:
Depending on the current Intel MPX (Memory Protection
Extensions) configuration, execution of certain branch
instructions (near CALL, near RET, near JMP, and Jcc
instructions) without a BND prefix (F2H) initialize the MPX bound
registers. Due to this erratum, such a branch instruction that is
executed both with CPL = 3 and with CPL < 3 may not use the
correct MPX configuration register (BNDCFGU or BNDCFGS,
respectively) for determining whether to initialize the bound
registers; it may thus initialize the bound registers when it
should not, or fail to initialize them when it should.
Implication:
A branch instruction that has executed both in user mode and in
supervisor mode (from the same linear address) may cause a #BR
(bound range fault) when it should not have or may not cause a
#BR when it should have. Workaround An operating system can
avoid this erratum by setting CR4.SMEP[bit 20] to enable
supervisor-mode execution prevention (SMEP). When SMEP is
enabled, no code can be executed both with CPL = 3 and with CPL < 3.

With CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER enabled, a thunk can pass a bad return address
value to the called function. '9*8(%rsp)' actually gets the frame
pointer, not the return address.
The only users of the 'put_ret_addr_in_rdi' option are two functions
which trace the enabling and disabling of interrupts, so this bug can
result in bad debug or tracing information with CONFIG_IRQSOFF_TRACER or
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING.
Fix this by implementing the suggestion of Linus: explicitly push
the frame pointer all the time and constify the stack offsets that
way. This is both correct and easier to read.

Alex Thorlton reported that the SGI/UV code crashes in the efi_call()
code when invoked with 7 parameters, due to:
mov (%rsp), %rax
mov 8(%rax), %rax
...
mov %rax, 40(%rsp)
Offset 8 is only true if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTERS is disabled,
with frame pointers enabled it should be 16.
Furthermore, the SAVE_XMM code saves the old stack pointer, but
that's just crazy. It saves the stack pointer *AFTER* we've done
the:
FRAME_BEGIN
... which will have *changed* the stack pointer, depending on whether
stack frames are enabled or not.
So when the code then does:
mov (%rsp), %rax
... we now move that old stack pointer into %rax, but the offset off that
stack pointer will depend on whether that FRAME_BEGIN saved off %rbp
or not.
So that whole 8-vs-16 offset confusion depends on the frame pointer!
If frame pointers were enabled, it will be 16. If they weren't, it
will be 8.
The right fix is to just get rid of that silly conditional frame
pointer thing, and always use frame pointers in this stub function.
And then we don't need that (odd) load to get the old stack
pointer into %rax - we can just use the frame pointer.

When I added support for the Memory Protection Keys processor
feature, I had to reindent the REQUIRED/DISABLED_MASK macros, and
also consult the later cpufeature words.
I'm not quite sure how I bungled it, but I consulted the wrong
word at the end. This only affected required or disabled cpu
features in cpufeature words 14, 15 and 16. So, only Protection
Keys itself was screwed over here.
The result was that if you disabled pkeys in your .config, you
might still see some code show up that should have been compiled
out. There should be no functional problems, though.
In verifying this patch I also realized that the DISABLE_PKU/OSPKE
macros were defined backwards and that the cpu_has() check in
setup_pku() was not doing the compile-time disabled checks.
So also fix the macro for DISABLE_PKU/OSPKE and add a compile-time
check for pkeys being enabled in setup_pku().

Upon inspection it was found that there are two things wrong with it;
- it forgets to remove WAITING_BIAS if it leaves the list empty, or
- it forgets to wake further waiters that were blocked on the now
removed waiter.
Especially the first issue causes new lock attempts to block and stall
indefinitely, as the code assumes that pending waiters mean there is
an owner that will wake when it releases the lock.

Original implementation commit e54bcde3d6 ("arm64: eBPF JIT compiler")

As a result, we had been falling back to BPF interpreter whenever a BPF

With this fix, we confirm that the corresponding tests in lib/test_bpf

Currently, when creating or updating a route, no check is performed
in both ipv4 and ipv6 code to the hoplimit value.
The caller can i.e. set hoplimit to 256, and when such route will
be used, packets will be sent with hoplimit/ttl equal to 0.
This commit adds checks for the RTAX_HOPLIMIT value, in both ipv4
ipv6 route code, substituting any value greater than 255 with 255.
This is consistent with what is currently done for ADVMSS and MTU
in the ipv4 code.

The slab name ends up being visible in the directory structure under
/sys, and even if you don't have access rights to the file you can see
the filenames.
Just use a 64-bit counter instead of the pointer to the 'net' structure
to generate a unique name.
This code will go away in 4.7 when the conntrack code moves to a single
kmemcache, but this is the backportable simple solution to avoiding
leaking kernel pointers to user space.

The introduction of switch_mm_irqs_off() brought back an old bug
regarding the use of preempt_enable_no_resched:
As part of:
62b94a08da ("sched/preempt: Take away preempt_enable_no_resched() from modules")
the definition of preempt_enable_no_resched() is only available in
built-in code, not in loadable modules, so we can't generally use
it from header files.
However, the ARM version of finish_arch_post_lock_switch()
calls preempt_enable_no_resched() and is defined as a static
inline function in asm/mmu_context.h. This in turn means we cannot
include asm/mmu_context.h from modules.
With today's tip tree, asm/mmu_context.h gets included from
linux/mmu_context.h, which is normally the exact pattern one would
expect, but unfortunately, linux/mmu_context.h can be included from
the vhost driver that is a loadable module, now causing this compile
time error with modular configs:
In file included from ../include/linux/mmu_context.h:4:0,
from ../drivers/vhost/vhost.c:18:
../arch/arm/include/asm/mmu_context.h: In function 'finish_arch_post_lock_switch':
../arch/arm/include/asm/mmu_context.h:88:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'preempt_enable_no_resched' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
preempt_enable_no_resched();
Andy already tried to fix the bug by including linux/preempt.h
from asm/mmu_context.h, but that didn't help. Arnd suggested reordering
the header files, which wasn't popular, so let's use this
workaround instead:
The finish_arch_post_lock_switch() definition is now also hidden
inside of #ifdef MODULE, so we don't see anything referencing
preempt_enable_no_resched() from a header file. I've built a
few hundred randconfig kernels with this, and did not see any
new problems.
