commit 119a0798 upstream.

Remove the unused but set variable pinst in padata_parallel_worker to
fix the following warning when building with 'W=1':

  kernel/padata.c: In function ‘padata_parallel_worker’:
  kernel/padata.c:68:26: warning: variable ‘pinst’ set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]

Also remove the now unused variable pd which is only used to set pinst.

      igb: use igb_adapter->io_addr instead of e1000_hw->hw_addr · a06d2fa4

commit 629823b8 upstream.

When running as guest, under certain condition, it will oops as following.
writel() in igb_configure_tx_ring() results in oops, because hw->hw_addr
is NULL. While other register access won't oops kernel because they use
wr32/rd32 which have a defense against NULL pointer.

      x86, sched: Allow topologies where NUMA nodes share an LLC · 86a0090a
      Alison Schofield authored 
      BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1882478

Intel's Skylake Server CPUs have a different LLC topology than previous
generations. When in Sub-NUMA-Clustering (SNC) mode, the package is divided
into two "slices", each containing half the cores, half the LLC, and one
memory controller and each slice is enumerated to Linux as a NUMA
node. This is similar to how the cores and LLC were arranged for the
Cluster-On-Die (CoD) feature.

CoD allowed the same cache line to be present in each half of the LLC.
But, with SNC, each line is only ever present in *one* slice. This means
that the portion of the LLC *available* to a CPU depends on the data being
accessed:

    Remote socket: entire package LLC is shared
    Local socket->local slice: data goes into local slice LLC
    Local socket->remote slice: data goes into remote-slice LLC. Slightly
                    		higher latency than local slice LLC.

The biggest implication from this is that a process accessing all
NUMA-local memory only sees half the LLC capacity.

The CPU describes its cache hierarchy with the CPUID instruction. One of
the CPUID leaves enumerates the "logical processors sharing this
cache". This information is used for scheduling decisions so that tasks
move more freely between CPUs sharing the cache.

But, the CPUID for the SNC configuration discussed above enumerates the LLC
as being shared by the entire package. This is not 100% precise because the
entire cache is not usable by all accesses. But, it *is* the way the
hardware enumerates itself, and this is not likely to change.

The userspace visible impact of all the above is that the sysfs info
reports the entire LLC as being available to the entire package. As noted
above, this is not true for local socket accesses. This patch does not
correct the sysfs info. It is the same, pre and post patch.

The current code emits the following warning:

 sched: CPU #3's llc-sibling CPU #0 is not on the same node! [node: 1 != 0]. Ignoring dependency.

The warning is coming from the topology_sane() check in smpboot.c because
the topology is not matching the expectations of the model for obvious
reasons.

To fix this, add a vendor and model specific check to never call
topology_sane() for these systems. Also, just like "Cluster-on-Die" disable
the "coregroup" sched_domain_topology_level and use NUMA information from
the SRAT alone.

This is OK at least on the hardware we are immediately concerned about
because the LLC sharing happens at both the slice and at the package level,
which are also NUMA boundaries.

      UBUNTU: SAUCE: aufs: bugfix, IMA i_readcount · 332c268d
      J. R. Okajima authored 
      By the recent commit
	21913077f9918 2020-06-17 aufs: do not call i_readcount_inc()
a very old bug was fixed, which is inblance counter.
But still aufs needs to call i_readcount_inc() when the branch
permission is chaned from RW to RO.  Otherwise the counter reaches 0
and BUG() in i_readcount_dec() will be activated.

      UBUNTU: SAUCE: aufs: do not call i_readcount_inc() · f500cf60
      Mauricio Faria de Oliveira authored 
      The 'struct inode.i_readcount' field is maintained at the VFS, and
should not be modified by filesystems.  But aufs does in one place,
which causes it to be unbalanced.

This started with Linux v2.6.39 commit 890275b5 ("IMA: maintain
i_readcount in the VFS layer"), which moved the i_readcount updates
from IMA into the VFS (at the same places IMA was called previously)
and introduced 'mutex_lock(i_mutex)' in the ima_file_check() path.

The former change is functionally equivalent, thus no changes are
needed in response to it.

The latter change, on the other hand, is _not_; and is reported to
cause a deadlock in aufs (see below), thus it dropped the call to
ima_file_check().

However, when dropping the ima_file_check() call, aufs introduced
the i_readcount_inc() call as well, which according to the commit
changes is not necessary.

This can be observed in aufs2-standalone.git commit 1dbd1c864e455
("aufs2.1 standalone version for linux-2.6."), announced to the
aufs-users mailing list on 2011-04-04 [1].

    -       err = ima_file_check(file, au_conv_oflags(flags));
    ...

Apparently, this might have been a misunderstanding of one hunk in
the 2.6.39 commit, that deletes the lines to increment i_readcount,
and adds the lines to acquire i_mutex.

It reuses code from the removed function ima_counts_get() to create
ima_rdwr_violation_check(), and another hunk calls the new function
from ima_file_check().  But note that the i_readcount increment was
_not_ called from ima_file_check() previously, via ima_counts_get():

    -void ima_counts_get(struct file *file)
    +static void ima_rdwr_violation_check(struct file *file)
     {
    ...
    +       mutex_lock(&inode->i_mutex);    /* file metadata: permissions, xattr */
    ...
    -               atomic_inc(&inode->i_readcount);

    #@@ -318,6 +308,7 @@ int ima_file_check(struct file *file, int mask)
    ...
    +       ima_rdwr_violation_check(file);

So, in order to avoid the unbalance caused to i_readcount, drop the
i_readcount_inc() call.

Note the issue is not the lack of a corresponding i_readcount_dec()
call; it's the mere usage of these functions outside of VFS layer,
where i_readcount is maintained.
