commit 4d752e5af63753ab5140fc282929b98eaa4bd12e upstream.
commit b344d6a83d01 ("parisc: add support for cmpxchg on u8 pointers")
can generate a sparse warning ("cast truncates bits from constant
value"), which has been reported several times [1] [2] [3].
The original code worked as expected, but anyway, let silence such
sparse warning as what others did [4].

[ Upstream commit b344d6a83d01c52fddbefa6b3b4764da5b1022a0 ]
The kernel test bot reported[1] that using set_mask_bits on a u8 causes
the following issue on parisc:
hppa-linux-ld: drivers/phy/ti/phy-tusb1210.o: in function `tusb1210_probe':
>> (.text+0x2f4): undefined reference to `__cmpxchg_called_with_bad_pointer'

commit be6577af0cef934ccb036445314072e8cb9217b9 upstream.
Stalls are quite frequent with recent kernels. I enabled
CONFIG_SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR and I caught the following stall:
watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 22s! [cc1:22803]

The code was stuck in this loop in d_alloc_parallel:
4037d414: 0e 00 10 dc ldd 0(r16),ret0
4037d418: c7 fc 5f ed bb,< ret0,1f,4037d414 <d_alloc_parallel+0x384>
4037d41c: 08 00 02 40 nop
This is the inner loop of bit_spin_lock which is called by hlist_bl_unlock in
d_alloc_parallel:
static inline void bit_spin_lock(int bitnum, unsigned long *addr)
{
/*
* Assuming the lock is uncontended, this never enters
* the body of the outer loop. If it is contended, then
* within the inner loop a non-atomic test is used to
* busywait with less bus contention for a good time to
* attempt to acquire the lock bit.
*/
preempt_disable();
#if defined(CONFIG_SMP) || defined(CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK)
while (unlikely(test_and_set_bit_lock(bitnum, addr))) {
preempt_enable();
do {
cpu_relax();
} while (test_bit(bitnum, addr));
preempt_disable();
}
#endif
__acquire(bitlock);
}
After consideration, I realized that we must be losing bit unlocks.
Then, I noticed that we missed defining atomic64_set_release().
Adding this define fixes the stalls in bit operations.

commit 1829dda0e87f4462782ca81be474c7890efe31ce upstream.
LEVEL is a very common word, and now after many years it suddenly
clashed with another LEVEL define in the DRBD code.
Rename it to PA_ASM_LEVEL instead.

commit 5ffa8518851f1401817c15d2a7eecc0373c26ff9 upstream.
When running on qemu we know that the (emulated) cr16 cpu-internal
clocks are syncronized. So let's use them unconditionally on qemu.

commit 3b885ac1dc35b87a39ee176a6c7e2af9c789d8b8 upstream.
Now that mb() is an instruction barrier, it will slow performance if we issue
unnecessary barriers.
The spinlock defines have a number of unnecessary barriers. The __ldcw()
define is both a hardware and compiler barrier. The mb() barriers in the
routines using __ldcw() serve no purpose.
The only barrier needed is the one in arch_spin_unlock(). We need to ensure
all accesses are complete prior to releasing the lock.

commit fedb8da96355f5f64353625bf96dc69423ad1826 upstream.
For years I thought all parisc machines executed loads and stores in
order. However, Jeff Law recently indicated on gcc-patches that this is
not correct. There are various degrees of out-of-order execution all the
way back to the PA7xxx processor series (hit-under-miss). The PA8xxx
series has full out-of-order execution for both integer operations, and
loads and stores.
This is described in the following article:
http://web.archive.org/web/20040214092531/http://www.cpus.hp.com/technical_references/advperf.shtml
For this reason, we need to define mb() and to insert a memory barrier
before the store unlocking spinlocks. This ensures that all memory
accesses are complete prior to unlocking. The ldcw instruction performs
the same function on entry.

commit 30d6e0a4190d37740e9447e4e4815f06992dd8c3 upstream.
There is code duplicated over all architecture's headers for
futex_atomic_op_inuser. Namely op decoding, access_ok check for uaddr,
and comparison of the result.
Remove this duplication and leave up to the arches only the needed
assembly which is now in arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser.
This effectively distributes the Will Deacon's arm64 fix for undefined
behaviour reported by UBSAN to all architectures. The fix was done in
commit 5f16a046f8e1 (arm64: futex: Fix undefined behaviour with
FUTEX_OP_OPARG_SHIFT usage). Look there for an example dump.
And as suggested by Thomas, check for negative oparg too, because it was
also reported to cause undefined behaviour report.
Note that s390 removed access_ok check in d12a29703 ("s390/uaccess:
remove pointless access_ok() checks") as access_ok there returns true.
We introduce it back to the helper for the sake of simplicity (it gets
optimized away anyway).

commit 0adb24e03a124b79130c9499731936b11ce2677d upstream.
The change to flush_kernel_vmap_range() wasn't sufficient to avoid the
SMP stalls. The problem is some drivers call these routines with
interrupts disabled. Interrupts need to be enabled for flush_tlb_all()
and flush_cache_all() to work. This version adds checks to ensure
interrupts are not disabled before calling routines that need IPI
interrupts. When interrupts are disabled, we now drop into slower code.
The attached change fixes the ordering of cache and TLB flushes in
several cases. When we flush the cache using the existing PTE/TLB
entries, we need to flush the TLB after doing the cache flush. We don't
need to do this when we flush the entire instruction and data caches as
these flushes don't use the existing TLB entries. The same is true for
tmpalias region flushes.
The flush_kernel_vmap_range() and invalidate_kernel_vmap_range()
routines have been updated.
Secondly, we added a new purge_kernel_dcache_range_asm() routine to
pacache.S and use it in invalidate_kernel_vmap_range(). Nominally,
purges are faster than flushes as the cache lines don't have to be
written back to memory.
Hopefully, this is sufficient to resolve the remaining problems due to
cache speculation. So far, testing indicates that this is the case. I
did work up a patch using tmpalias flushes, but there is a performance
hit because we need the physical address for each page, and we also need
to sequence access to the tmpalias flush code. This increases the
probability of stalls.

commit 88776c0e70be0290f8357019d844aae15edaa967 upstream.
Qemu for PARISC reported on a 32bit SMP parisc kernel strange failures
about "Not-handled unaligned insn 0x0e8011d6 and 0x0c2011c9."
Those opcodes evaluate to the ldcw() assembly instruction which requires
(on 32bit) an alignment of 16 bytes to ensure atomicity.
As it turns out, qemu is correct and in our assembly code in entry.S and
pacache.S we don't pay attention to the required alignment.
This patch fixes the problem by aligning the lock offset in assembly
code in the same manner as we do in our C-code.

commit 649aa24254e85bf6bd7807dd372d083707852b1f upstream.
This is because of commit f98db6013c55 ("sched/core: Add switch_mm_irqs_off()
and use it in the scheduler") in which switch_mm_irqs_off() is called by the
scheduler, vs switch_mm() which is used by use_mm().
This patch lets the parisc code mirror the x86 and powerpc code, ie. it
disables interrupts in switch_mm(), and optimises the scheduler case by
defining switch_mm_irqs_off().

commit d19f5e41b344a057bb2450024a807476f30978d2 upstream.
Al Viro noticed that userspace accesses via get_user()/put_user() can be
simplified a lot with regard to usage of the exception handling.
This patch implements a fixup routine for get_user() and put_user() in such
that the exception handler will automatically load -EFAULT into the register
%r8 (the error value) in case on a fault on userspace. Additionally the fixup
routine will zero the target register on fault in case of a get_user() call.
The target register is extracted out of the faulting assembly instruction.
This patch brings a few benefits over the old implementation:
1. Exception handling gets much cleaner, easier and smaller in size.
2. Helper functions like fixup_get_user_skip_1 (all of fixup.S) can be dropped.
3. No need to hardcode %r9 as target register for get_user() any longer. This
helps the compiler register allocator and thus creates less assembler
statements.
4. No dependency on the exception_data contents any longer.
5. Nested faults will be handled cleanly.

commit 316ec0624f951166daedbe446988ef92ae72b59f upstream.
The previously submitted patch did not resolve the random segmentation
faults observed on the phantom buildd system. There are still
unresolved problems with the Debian 4.8 and 4.9 kernels on C8000.
The attached patch removes the flush of the offset map pages and does a
whole data cache flush for large ranges. No other arch flushes the
offset map in these routines as far as I can tell.
I have not observed any random segmentation faults on rp3440 in two
weeks of testing with 4.10.0 and 4.10.1.

commit 2ad5d52d42810bed95100a3d912679d8864421ec upstream.
In swab.h the "#if BITS_PER_LONG > 32" breaks compiling userspace programs if
BITS_PER_LONG is #defined by userspace with the sizeof() compiler builtin.
Solve this problem by using __BITS_PER_LONG instead. Since we now
#include asm/bitsperlong.h avoid further potential userspace pollution
by moving the #define of SHIFT_PER_LONG to bitops.h which is not
exported to userspace.
This patch unbreaks compiling qemu on hppa/parisc.

The attached change interchanges the order of purging the TLB and
setting the corresponding page table entry. TLB purges are strongly
ordered. It occurred to me one night that setting the PTE first might
have subtle ordering issues on SMP machines and cause random memory
corruption.
A TLB lock guards the insertion of user TLB entries. So after the TLB
is purged, a new entry can't be inserted until the lock is released.
This ensures that the new PTE value is used when the lock is released.
Since making this change, no random segmentation faults have been
observed on the Debian hppa buildd servers.

Increase the initial kernel default page mapping size for 64-bit kernels to
64 MB and for 32-bit kernels to 32 MB.
Due to the additional support of ftrace, tracepoint and huge pages the kernel

This patch adds two new system calls:
int pkey_alloc(unsigned long flags, unsigned long init_access_rights)
int pkey_free(int pkey);
These implement an "allocator" for the protection keys
themselves, which can be thought of as analogous to the allocator
that the kernel has for file descriptors. The kernel tracks
which numbers are in use, and only allows operations on keys that
are valid. A key which was not obtained by pkey_alloc() may not,
for instance, be passed to pkey_mprotect().
These system calls are also very important given the kernel's use
of pkeys to implement execute-only support. These help ensure
that userspace can never assume that it has control of a key
unless it first asks the kernel. The kernel does not promise to
preserve PKRU (right register) contents except for allocated
pkeys.
The 'init_access_rights' argument to pkey_alloc() specifies the
rights that will be established for the returned pkey. For
instance:
pkey = pkey_alloc(flags, PKEY_DENY_WRITE);
will allocate 'pkey', but also sets the bits in PKRU[1] such that
writing to 'pkey' is already denied.
The kernel does not prevent pkey_free() from successfully freeing
in-use pkeys (those still assigned to a memory range by
pkey_mprotect()). It would be expensive to implement the checks
for this, so we instead say, "Just don't do it" since sane
software will never do it anyway.
Any piece of userspace calling pkey_alloc() needs to be prepared
for it to fail. Why? pkey_alloc() returns the same error code
(ENOSPC) when there are no pkeys and when pkeys are unsupported.
They can be unsupported for a whole host of reasons, so apps must
be prepared for this. Also, libraries or LD_PRELOADs might steal
keys before an application gets access to them.
This allocation mechanism could be implemented in userspace.
Even if we did it in userspace, we would still need additional
user/kernel interfaces to tell userspace which keys are being
used by the kernel internally (such as for execute-only
mappings). Having the kernel provide this facility completely
removes the need for these additional interfaces, or having an
implementation of this in userspace at all.
Note that we have to make changes to all of the architectures
that do not use mman-common.h because we use the new
PKEY_DENY_ACCESS/WRITE macros in arch-independent code.
1. PKRU is the Protection Key Rights User register. It is a
usermode-accessible register that controls whether writes
and/or access to each individual pkey is allowed or denied.

Increase the initial kernel default page mapping size for SMP kernels to 32MB
and add a runtime check which panics early if the kernel is bigger than the
initial mapping size.
This fixes boot crashes of 32bit SMP kernels. Due to the introduction of huge
page support in kernel 4.4 and it's required initial kernel layout in memory, a
32bit SMP kernel usually got bigger (in layout, not size) than 16MB.

There are three usercopy warnings which are currently being silenced for
gcc 4.6 and newer:
1) "copy_from_user() buffer size is too small" compile warning/error
This is a static warning which happens when object size and copy size
are both const, and copy size > object size. I didn't see any false
positives for this one. So the function warning attribute seems to
be working fine here.
Note this scenario is always a bug and so I think it should be
changed to *always* be an error, regardless of
CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS.
2) "copy_from_user() buffer size is not provably correct" compile warning
This is another static warning which happens when I enable
__compiletime_object_size() for new compilers (and
CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS). It happens when object size
is const, but copy size is *not*. In this case there's no way to
compare the two at build time, so it gives the warning. (Note the
warning is a byproduct of the fact that gcc has no way of knowing
whether the overflow function will be called, so the call isn't dead
code and the warning attribute is activated.)
So this warning seems to only indicate "this is an unusual pattern,
maybe you should check it out" rather than "this is a bug".
I get 102(!) of these warnings with allyesconfig and the
__compiletime_object_size() gcc check removed. I don't know if there
are any real bugs hiding in there, but from looking at a small
sample, I didn't see any. According to Kees, it does sometimes find
real bugs. But the false positive rate seems high.
3) "Buffer overflow detected" runtime warning
This is a runtime warning where object size is const, and copy size >
object size.
All three warnings (both static and runtime) were completely disabled
for gcc 4.6 with the following commit:
2fb0815c9ee6 ("gcc4: disable __compiletime_object_size for GCC 4.6+")
That commit mistakenly assumed that the false positives were caused by a
gcc bug in __compiletime_object_size(). But in fact,
__compiletime_object_size() seems to be working fine. The false
positives were instead triggered by #2 above. (Though I don't have an
explanation for why the warnings supposedly only started showing up in
gcc 4.6.)
So remove warning #2 to get rid of all the false positives, and re-enable
warnings #1 and #3 by reverting the above commit.
Furthermore, since #1 is a real bug which is detected at compile time,
upgrade it to always be an error.
Having done all that, CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS is no longer
needed.

When building gccgo in userspace, errno.h gets parsed and the go include file
sysinfo.go is generated.
Since EREFUSED is defined to the same value as ECONNREFUSED, and ECONNREFUSED
is defined later on in errno.h, this leads to go complaining that EREFUSED
isn't defined yet.
Fix this trivial problem by moving the define of EREFUSED down after
ECONNREFUSED in errno.h (and clean up the indenting while touching this line).

PA-RISC is interesting; integer multiplies are implemented in the
FPU, so are painful in the kernel. But it tries to be friendly to
shift-and-add sequences for constant multiplies.
__hash_32 is implemented using the same shift-and-add sequence as
Microblaze, just scheduled for the PA7100. (It's 2-way superscalar
but in-order, like the Pentium.)
hash_64 was tricky, but a suggestion from Jason Thong allowed a
good solution by breaking up the multiplier. After a lot of manual
optimization, I found a 19-instruction sequence for the multiply that
can be executed in 10 cycles using only 4 temporaries.
(The PA8xxx can issue 4 instructions per cycle, but 2 must be ALU ops
and 2 must be loads/stores. And the final add can't be paired.)
An alternative considered, but ultimately not used, was Thomas Wang's
64-to-32-bit integer hash. At 12 instructions, it's smaller, but they're
all sequentially dependent, so it has longer latency.

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The locking tree was busier in this cycle than the usual pattern - a
couple of major projects happened to coincide.
The main changes are:
- implement the atomic_fetch_{add,sub,and,or,xor}() API natively
across all SMP architectures (Peter Zijlstra)
- add atomic_fetch_{inc/dec}() as well, using the generic primitives
(Davidlohr Bueso)
- optimize various aspects of rwsems (Jason Low, Davidlohr Bueso,
Waiman Long)
- optimize smp_cond_load_acquire() on arm64 and implement LSE based
atomic{,64}_fetch_{add,sub,and,andnot,or,xor}{,_relaxed,_acquire,_release}()
on arm64 (Will Deacon)
- introduce smp_acquire__after_ctrl_dep() and fix various barrier
mis-uses and bugs (Peter Zijlstra)
- after discovering ancient spin_unlock_wait() barrier bugs in its
implementation and usage, strengthen its semantics and update/fix
usage sites (Peter Zijlstra)
- optimize mutex_trylock() fastpath (Peter Zijlstra)
- ... misc fixes and cleanups"

Since all architectures have this implemented now natively, remove this
dead code.

Implement FETCH-OP atomic primitives, these are very similar to the
existing OP-RETURN primitives we already have, except they return the
value of the atomic variable _before_ modification.
This is especially useful for irreversible operations -- such as
bitops (because it becomes impossible to reconstruct the state prior
to modification).

This patch updates/fixes all spin_unlock_wait() implementations.
The update is in semantics; where it previously was only a control
dependency, we now upgrade to a full load-acquire to match the
store-release from the spin_unlock() we waited on. This ensures that
when spin_unlock_wait() returns, we're guaranteed to observe the full
critical section we waited on.
This fixes a number of spin_unlock_wait() users that (not
unreasonably) rely on this.
I also fixed a number of ticket lock versions to only wait on the
current lock holder, instead of for a full unlock, as this is
sufficient.
Furthermore; again for ticket locks; I added an smp_rmb() in between
the initial ticket load and the spin loop testing the current value
because I could not convince myself the address dependency is
sufficient, esp. if the loads are of different sizes.
I'm more than happy to remove this smp_rmb() again if people are
certain the address dependency does indeed work as expected.
Note: PPC32 will be fixed independently

__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations.
pmd_alloc_one allocate PMD_ORDER which is 1. This means that this flag
has never been actually useful here because it has always been used only
for PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY requests.

This is the third version of the patchset previously sent [1]. I have
basically only rebased it on top of 4.7-rc1 tree and dropped "dm: get
rid of superfluous gfp flags" which went through dm tree. I am sending
it now because it is tree wide and chances for conflicts are reduced
considerably when we want to target rc2. I plan to send the next step
and rename the flag and move to a better semantic later during this
release cycle so we will have a new semantic ready for 4.8 merge window
hopefully.
Motivation:
While working on something unrelated I've checked the current usage of
__GFP_REPEAT in the tree. It seems that a majority of the usage is and
always has been bogus because __GFP_REPEAT has always been about costly
high order allocations while we are using it for order-0 or very small
orders very often. It seems that a big pile of them is just a
copy&paste when a code has been adopted from one arch to another.
I think it makes some sense to get rid of them because they are just
making the semantic more unclear. Please note that GFP_REPEAT is
documented as
* __GFP_REPEAT: Try hard to allocate the memory, but the allocation attempt
* _might_ fail. This depends upon the particular VM implementation.
while !costly requests have basically nofail semantic. So one could
reasonably expect that order-0 request with __GFP_REPEAT will not loop
for ever. This is not implemented right now though.
I would like to move on with __GFP_REPEAT and define a better semantic
for it.
$ git grep __GFP_REPEAT origin/master | wc -l
111
$ git grep __GFP_REPEAT | wc -l
36
So we are down to the third after this patch series. The remaining
places really seem to be relying on __GFP_REPEAT due to large allocation
requests. This still needs some double checking which I will do later
after all the simple ones are sorted out.
I am touching a lot of arch specific code here and I hope I got it right
but as a matter of fact I even didn't compile test for some archs as I
do not have cross compiler for them. Patches should be quite trivial to
review for stupid compile mistakes though. The tricky parts are usually
hidden by macro definitions and thats where I would appreciate help from
arch maintainers.

This patch (of 19):
__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations. Yet we
have the full kernel tree with its usage for apparently order-0
allocations. This is really confusing because __GFP_REPEAT is
explicitly documented to allow allocation failures which is a weaker
semantic than the current order-0 has (basically nofail).
Let's simply drop __GFP_REPEAT from those places. This would allow to
identify place which really need allocator to retry harder and formulate
a more specific semantic for what the flag is supposed to do actually.

Add a native implementation for the sched_clock() function which utilizes the
processor-internal cycle counter (Control Register 16) as high-resolution time
source.
With this patch we now get much more fine-grained resolutions in various
in-kernel time measurements (e.g. when viewing the function tracing logs), and
probably a more accurate scheduling on SMP systems.
There are a few specific implementation details in this patch:
1. On a 32bit kernel we emulate the higher 32bits of the required 64-bit
resolution of sched_clock() by increasing a per-cpu counter at every
wrap-around of the 32bit cycle counter.
2. In a SMP system, the cycle counters of the various CPUs are not syncronized
(similiar to the TSC in a x86_64 system). To cope with this we define
HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK and let the upper layers do the adjustment work.
3. Since we need HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK, we need to provide a cmpxchg64()
function even on a 32-bit kernel.
4. A 64-bit SMP kernel which is started on a UP system will mark the
sched_clock() implementation as "stable", which means that we don't expect any
jumps in the returned counter. This is true because we then run only on one
CPU.

By adding TRACEHOOK support we now get a clean user interface to access
registers via PTRACE_GETREGS, PTRACE_SETREGS, PTRACE_GETFPREGS and
PTRACE_SETFPREGS.
The user-visible regset struct user_regs_struct and user_fp_struct are
modelled similiar to x86 and can be accessed via PTRACE_GETREGSET.
