Pull xfs updates from Darrick Wong: "This merge cycle, we're again some substantive changes to XFS. Metadata verifiers have been restructured to provide more detail about which part of a metadata structure failed checks, and we've enhanced the new online fsck feature to cross-reference extent allocation information with the other metadata structures. With this pull, the metadata verification part of online fsck is more or less finished, though the feature is still experimental and still disabled by default. We're also preparing to remove the EXPERIMENTAL tag from a couple of features this cycle. This week we're committing a bunch of space accounting fixes for reflink and removing the EXPERIMENTAL tag from reflink; I anticipate that we'll be ready to do the same for the reverse mapping feature next week. (I don't have any pending fixes for rmap; however I wish to remove the tags one at a time.) This giant pile of patches has been run through a full xfstests run over the weekend and through a quick xfstests run against this morning's master, with no major failures reported. Let me know if there's any merge problems -- git merge reported that one of our patches touched the same function as the i_version series, but it resolved things cleanly. Summary: - Log faulting code locations when verifiers fail, for improved diagnosis of corrupt filesystems. - Implement metadata verifiers for local format inode fork data. - Online scrub now cross-references metadata records with other metadata. - Refactor the fs geometry ioctl generation functions. - Harden various metadata verifiers. - Fix various accounting problems. - Fix uncancelled transactions leaking when xattr functions fail. - Prevent the copy-on-write speculative preallocation garbage collector from racing with writeback. - Emit log reservation type information as trace data so that we can compare against xfsprogs. - Fix some erroneous asserts in the online scrub code. - Clean up the transaction reservation calculations. - Fix various minor bugs in online scrub. - Log complaints about mixed dio/buffered writes once per day and less noisily than before. - Refactor buffer log item lists to use list_head. - Break PNFS leases before reflinking blocks. - Reduce lock contention on reflink source files. - Fix some quota accounting problems with reflink. - Fix a serious corruption problem in the direct cow write code where we fed bad iomaps to the vfs iomap consumers. - Various other refactorings. - Remove EXPERIMENTAL tag from reflink!" * tag 'xfs-4.16-merge-4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux: (94 commits) xfs: remove experimental tag for reflinks xfs: don't screw up direct writes when freesp is fragmented xfs: check reflink allocation mappings iomap: warn on zero-length mappings xfs: treat CoW fork operations as delalloc for quota accounting xfs: only grab shared inode locks for source file during reflink xfs: allow xfs_lock_two_inodes to take different EXCL/SHARED modes xfs: reflink should break pnfs leases before sharing blocks xfs: don't clobber inobt/finobt cursors when xref with rmap xfs: skip CoW writes past EOF when writeback races with truncate xfs: preserve i_rdev when recycling a reclaimable inode xfs: refactor accounting updates out of xfs_bmap_btalloc xfs: refactor inode verifier corruption error printing xfs: make tracepoint inode number format consistent xfs: always zero di_flags2 when we free the inode xfs: call xfs_qm_dqattach before performing reflink operations xfs: bmap code cleanup Use list_head infra-structure for buffer's log items list Split buffer's b_fspriv field Get rid of xfs_buf_log_item_t typedef ...

Pull GFS2 updates from Bob Peterson: "We've got 30 patches for this merge window. These generally fall into five categories: - code cleanups - patches related to adding PUNCH_HOLE support to GFS2 - support for new fields in resource group headers - a few bug fixes - support for new fields in journal log headers. These new fields, which were previously unused, are designed to make it easier to track down file system corruption, and allow fsck.gfs2 to make more intelligent decisions when finding and fixing file system corruption. Details: - Two patches from Abhi Das, to trim the ordered writes list, which used to grow uncontrollably until unmount. - Several patches from Andreas Gruenbacher: remove an unused parameter from function gfs2_write_jdata_pagevec, remove a pointless BUG_ON, clean up an error patch in trunc_start, remove some unused parameters from truncate, make gfs2_journaled_truncate more efficient, clean up the support functions for truncate, fix metadata read-ahead for truncate to make it faster, fix up the non-recursive truncate code, rework and rename gfs2_block_truncate_page, generalize the non-recursive truncate code so it can take a range of values for punch_hole support, introduce new PUNCH_HOLE support that take advantage of the previous patches, add fallocate support with PUNCH_HOLE, fix some typos in the comments, add the function gfs2_max_stuffed_size to replace a piece of code that was needlessly repeated throughout GFS2, a minor cleanup to function gfs2_page_add_databufs, get rid of function gfs2_log_header_in in preparation for the new log header fields, and also fix up some missing newlines in kernel messages. - Andy Price added a new field to resource groups to indicate where the next one should be, to allow fsck.gfs2 to make better repairs. He also added new rindex fields for consistency checking, and added a crc field to resource group headers for consistency checking. - I reduced redundancy in functions common to freeing dinodes, and when writing log headers between the journalling code and journal recovery code. Also added new fields to journal log headers based on a prototype from Steve Whitehouse, and log the source of journal log headers so we can better track down journal corruption. Minor comment typo fix and a fix for a BUG in an unlink error path. - Steve Whitehouse contributed a patch to fix an incorrect use of the gfs2_blk2rgrpd function. - Tetsuo Handa contributed a patch that fixes incorrect error handling in function init_gfs2_fs" * tag 'gfs2-4.16.fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gfs2/linux-gfs2: (30 commits) gfs2: Add a few missing newlines in messages gfs2: Remove inode from ordered write list in gfs2_write_inode() GFS2: Don't try to end a non-existent transaction in unlink GFS2: Fix minor comment typo GFS2: Log the reason for log flushes in every log header GFS2: Introduce new gfs2_log_header_v2 gfs2: Get rid of gfs2_log_header_in gfs2: Minor gfs2_page_add_databufs cleanup gfs2: Add gfs2_max_stuffed_size gfs2: Typo fixes gfs2: Implement fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE) gfs2: Turn trunc_dealloc into punch_hole gfs2: Generalize truncate code Turn gfs2_block_truncate_page into gfs2_block_zero_range gfs2: Improve non-recursive delete algorithm gfs2: Fix metadata read-ahead during truncate gfs2: Clean up {lookup,fillup}_metapath gfs2: Remove minor gfs2_journaled_truncate inefficiencies gfs2: truncate: Remove unnecessary oldsize parameters gfs2: Clean up trunc_start error path ...

As Linus points out: The inode_cmp_iversion{+raw}() functions are pure and utter crap. Why? You say that they return 0/negative/positive, but they do so in a completely broken manner. They return that ternary value as the sequence number difference in a 's64', which means that if you actually care about that ternary value, and do the *sane* thing that the kernel-doc of the function implies is the right thing, you would do int cmp = inode_cmp_iversion(inode, old); if (cmp < 0 ... and as a result you get code that looks sane, but that doesn't actually *WORK* right. Since none of the callers actually care about the ternary value here, convert the inode_cmp_iversion{+raw} functions to just return a boolean value (false for matching, true for non-matching). This matches the existing use of these functions just fine, and makes it simple to convert them to return a ternary value in the future if we grow callers that need it. With this change we can also reimplement inode_cmp_iversion in a simpler way using inode_peek_iversion.

Pull kern_recvmsg reduction from Al Viro: "kernel_recvmsg() is a set_fs()-using wrapper for sock_recvmsg(). In all but one case that is not needed - use of ITER_KVEC for ->msg_iter takes care of the data and does not care about set_fs(). The only exception is svc_udp_recvfrom() where we want cmsg to be store into kernel object; everything else can just use sock_recvmsg() and be done with that.

Pull poll annotations from Al Viro: "This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as 'make ->poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local variables used to hold the future return value'. Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. ->poll() instance deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those in this series - it's large enough as it is. Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are arch-independent, but POLL### are not. The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll() work on all architectures. As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered at all on sparc. With this patch they should work consistently on all architectures" * 'misc.poll' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (37 commits) make kernel-side POLL... arch-independent eventpoll: no need to mask the result of epi_item_poll() again eventpoll: constify struct epoll_event pointers debugging printk in sg_poll() uses %x to print POLL... bitmap annotate poll(2) guts 9p: untangle ->poll() mess ->si_band gets POLL... bitmap stored into a user-visible long field ring_buffer_poll_wait() return value used as return value of ->poll() the rest of drivers/*: annotate ->poll() instances media: annotate ->poll() instances fs: annotate ->poll() instances ipc, kernel, mm: annotate ->poll() instances net: annotate ->poll() instances apparmor: annotate ->poll() instances tomoyo: annotate ->poll() instances sound: annotate ->poll() instances acpi: annotate ->poll() instances crypto: annotate ->poll() instances block: annotate ->poll() instances x86: annotate ->poll() instances ...

Pull workqueue updates from Tejun Heo: "Workqueue has an early init trick where workqueues can be created and work items queued on them before the workqueue subsystem is online. This helps simplifying early init and operation of low level subsystems which use workqueues for managerial things which aren't depended upon early during boot. Out of laziness, the early init didn't cover workqueues with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM, which is inconsistent and confusing because adding the flag simply makes the system fail to boot. Cover WQ_MEM_RECLAIM too. This was originally brought up for RCU but RCU didn't actually need this.

Merge branch 'siginfo-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace Pull siginfo cleanups from Eric Biederman: "Long ago when 2.4 was just a testing release copy_siginfo_to_user was made to copy individual fields to userspace, possibly for efficiency and to ensure initialized values were not copied to userspace. Unfortunately the design was complex, it's assumptions unstated, and humans are fallible and so while it worked much of the time that design failed to ensure unitialized memory is not copied to userspace. This set of changes is part of a new design to clean up siginfo and simplify things, and hopefully make the siginfo handling robust enough that a simple inspection of the code can be made to ensure we don't copy any unitializied fields to userspace. The design is to unify struct siginfo and struct compat_siginfo into a single definition that is shared between all architectures so that anyone adding to the set of information shared with struct siginfo can see the whole picture. Hopefully ensuring all future si_code assignments are arch independent. The design is to unify copy_siginfo_to_user32 and copy_siginfo_from_user32 so that those function are complete and cope with all of the different cases documented in signinfo_layout. I don't think there was a single implementation of either of those functions that was complete and correct before my changes unified them. The design is to introduce a series of helpers including force_siginfo_fault that take the values that are needed in struct siginfo and build the siginfo structure for their callers. Ensuring struct siginfo is built correctly. The remaining work for 4.17 (unless someone thinks it is post -rc1 material) is to push usage of those helpers down into the architectures so that architecture specific code will not need to deal with the fiddly work of intializing struct siginfo, and then when struct siginfo is guaranteed to be fully initialized change copy siginfo_to_user into a simple wrapper around copy_to_user. Further there is work in progress on the issues that have been documented requires arch specific knowledge to sort out. The changes below fix or at least document all of the issues that have been found with siginfo generation. Then proceed to unify struct siginfo the 32 bit helpers that copy siginfo to and from userspace, and generally clean up anything that is not arch specific with regards to siginfo generation. It is a lot but with the unification you can of siginfo you can already see the code reduction in the kernel" * 'siginfo-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: (45 commits) signal/memory-failure: Use force_sig_mceerr and send_sig_mceerr mm/memory_failure: Remove unused trapno from memory_failure signal/ptrace: Add force_sig_ptrace_errno_trap and use it where needed signal/powerpc: Remove unnecessary signal_code parameter of do_send_trap signal: Helpers for faults with specialized siginfo layouts signal: Add send_sig_fault and force_sig_fault signal: Replace memset(info,...) with clear_siginfo for clarity signal: Don't use structure initializers for struct siginfo signal/arm64: Better isolate the COMPAT_TASK portion of ptrace_hbptriggered ptrace: Use copy_siginfo in setsiginfo and getsiginfo signal: Unify and correct copy_siginfo_to_user32 signal: Remove the code to clear siginfo before calling copy_siginfo_from_user32 signal: Unify and correct copy_siginfo_from_user32 signal/blackfin: Remove pointless UID16_SIGINFO_COMPAT_NEEDED signal/blackfin: Move the blackfin specific si_codes to asm-generic/siginfo.h signal/tile: Move the tile specific si_codes to asm-generic/siginfo.h signal/frv: Move the frv specific si_codes to asm-generic/siginfo.h signal/ia64: Move the ia64 specific si_codes to asm-generic/siginfo.h signal/powerpc: Remove redefinition of NSIGTRAP on powerpc signal: Move addr_lsb into the _sigfault union for clarity ...

Summary: - Security mitigations: - variant 2: invalidate the branch predictor with a call to secure firmware - variant 3: implement KPTI for arm64 - 52-bit physical address support for arm64 (ARMv8.2) - arm64 support for RAS (firmware first only) and SDEI (software delegated exception interface; allows firmware to inject a RAS error into the OS) - perf support for the ARM DynamIQ Shared Unit PMU - CPUID and HWCAP bits updated for new floating point multiplication instructions in ARMv8.4 - remove some virtual memory layout printks during boot - fix initial page table creation to cope with larger than 32M kernel images when 16K pages are enabled" * tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: (104 commits) arm64: Fix TTBR + PAN + 52-bit PA logic in cpu_do_switch_mm arm64: Turn on KPTI only on CPUs that need it arm64: Branch predictor hardening for Cavium ThunderX2 arm64: Run enable method for errata work arounds on late CPUs arm64: Move BP hardening to check_and_switch_context arm64: mm: ignore memory above supported physical address size arm64: kpti: Fix the interaction between ASID switching and software PAN KVM: arm64: Emulate RAS error registers and set HCR_EL2's TERR & TEA KVM: arm64: Handle RAS SErrors from EL2 on guest exit KVM: arm64: Handle RAS SErrors from EL1 on guest exit KVM: arm64: Save ESR_EL2 on guest SError KVM: arm64: Save/Restore guest DISR_EL1 KVM: arm64: Set an impdef ESR for Virtual-SError using VSESR_EL2.
