The hrtimer_get_remaining() markup is documenting, instead, __hrtimer_get_remaining(), as it is placed at the C file. In order to properly document it, a kernel-doc markup is needed together with the function prototype. So, add a new one, while preserving the existing one, just fixing the function name. The hrtimer_is_queued prototype has a typo: it is using '=' instead of '-' to split: identifier - description as required by kernel-doc markup.

Alex reported the following warning: kernel/time/timekeeping.c:464: warning: Function parameter or member 'tkf' not described in '__ktime_get_fast_ns' which is not entirely correct because the documented function is ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() which does not have a parameter, but the kernel-doc parser looks at the function declaration which follows the comment and complains about the missing parameter documentation.

Sebastian Andrzej Siewior authored
PREEMPT_RT does not spin and wait until a running timer completes its callback but instead it blocks on a sleeping lock to prevent a livelock in the case that the task waiting for the callback completion preempted the callback. This cannot be done for timers flagged with TIMER_IRQSAFE. These timers can be canceled from an interrupt disabled context even on RT kernels. The expiry callback of such timers is invoked with interrupts disabled so there is no need to use the expiry lock mechanism because obviously the callback cannot be preempted even on RT kernels. Do not use the timer_base::expiry_lock mechanism when waiting for a running callback to complete if the timer is flagged with TIMER_IRQSAFE. Also add a lockdep assertion for RT kernels to validate that the expiry lock mechanism is always invoked in preemptible context.

Pull random32 updates from Willy Tarreau: "Make prandom_u32() less predictable. This is the cleanup of the latest series of prandom_u32 experimentations consisting in using SipHash instead of Tausworthe to produce the randoms used by the network stack. The changes to the files were kept minimal, and the controversial commit that used to take noise from the fast_pool (f227e3ec) was reverted. Instead, a dedicated "net_rand_noise" per_cpu variable is fed from various sources of activities (networking, scheduling) to perturb the SipHash state using fast, non-trivially predictable data, instead of keeping it fully deterministic. The goal is essentially to make any occasional memory leakage or brute-force attempt useless. The resulting code was verified to be very slightly faster on x86_64 than what is was with the controversial commit above, though this remains barely above measurement noise. It was also tested on i386 and arm, and build- tested only on arm64" Link: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20200808152628.GA27941@SDF.ORG/ * tag '20201024-v4-5.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wtarreau/prandom: random32: add a selftest for the prandom32 code random32: add noise from network and scheduling activity random32: make prandom_u32() output unpredictable

Commit 21653a41 ("i2c: core: Call i2c_acpi_install_space_handler() before i2c_acpi_register_devices()")'s intention was to only move the acpi_install_address_space_handler() call to the point before where the ACPI declared i2c-children of the adapter where instantiated by i2c_acpi_register_devices(). But i2c_acpi_install_space_handler() had a call to acpi_walk_dep_device_list() hidden (that is I missed it) at the end of it, so as an unwanted side-effect now acpi_walk_dep_device_list() was also being called before i2c_acpi_register_devices(). Move the acpi_walk_dep_device_list() call to the end of i2c_acpi_register_devices(), so that it is once again called *after* the i2c_client-s hanging of the adapter have been created. This fixes the Microsoft Surface Go 2 hanging at boot.

With the removal of the interrupt perturbations in previous random32 change (random32: make prandom_u32() output unpredictable), the PRNG has become 100% deterministic again. While SipHash is expected to be way more robust against brute force than the previous Tausworthe LFSR, there's still the risk that whoever has even one temporary access to the PRNG's internal state is able to predict all subsequent draws till the next reseed (roughly every minute). This may happen through a side channel attack or any data leak. This patch restores the spirit of commit f227e3ec ("random32: update the net random state on interrupt and activity") in that it will perturb the internal PRNG's statee using externally collected noise, except that it will not pick that noise from the random pool's bits nor upon interrupt, but will rather combine a few elements along the Tx path that are collectively hard to predict, such as dev, skb and txq pointers, packet length and jiffies values. These ones are combined using a single round of SipHash into a single long variable that is mixed with the net_rand_state upon each invocation. The operation was inlined because it produces very small and efficient code, typically 3 xor, 2 add and 2 rol. The performance was measured to be the same (even very slightly better) than before the switch to SipHash; on a 6-core 12-thread Core i7-8700k equipped with a 40G NIC (i40e), the connection rate dropped from 556k/s to 555k/s while the SYN cookie rate grew from 5.38 Mpps to 5.45 Mpps.

Non-cryptographic PRNGs may have great statistical properties, but are usually trivially predictable to someone who knows the algorithm, given a small sample of their output. An LFSR like prandom_u32() is particularly simple, even if the sample is widely scattered bits. It turns out the network stack uses prandom_u32() for some things like random port numbers which it would prefer are *not* trivially predictable. Predictability led to a practical DNS spoofing attack. Oops. This patch replaces the LFSR with a homebrew cryptographic PRNG based on the SipHash round function, which is in turn seeded with 128 bits of strong random key. (The authors of SipHash have *not* been consulted about this abuse of their algorithm.) Speed is prioritized over security; attacks are rare, while performance is always wanted. Replacing all callers of prandom_u32() is the quick fix. Whether to reinstate a weaker PRNG for uses which can tolerate it is an open question. Commit f227e3ec ("random32: update the net random state on interrupt and activity") was an earlier attempt at a solution. This patch replaces it.

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman: - A fix for undetected data corruption on Power9 Nimbus <= DD2.1 in the emulation of VSX loads. The affected CPUs were not widely available. - Two fixes for machine check handling in guests under PowerVM. - A fix for our recent changes to SMP setup, when CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y. - Three fixes for races in the handling of some of our powernv sysfs attributes. - One change to remove TM from the set of Power10 CPU features. - A couple of other minor fixes. Thanks to: Aneesh Kumar K.V, Christophe Leroy, Ganesh Goudar, Jordan Niethe, Mahesh Salgaonkar, Michael Neuling, Oliver O'Halloran, Qian Cai, Srikar Dronamraju, Vasant Hegde. * tag 'powerpc-5.10-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux: powerpc/pseries: Avoid using addr_to_pfn in real mode powerpc/uaccess: Don't use "m<>" constraint with GCC 4.9 powerpc/eeh: Fix eeh_dev_check_failure() for PE#0 powerpc/64s: Remove TM from Power10 features selftests/powerpc: Make alignment handler test P9N DD2.1 vector CI load workaround powerpc: Fix undetected data corruption with P9N DD2.1 VSX CI load emulation powerpc/powernv/dump: Handle multiple writes to ack attribute powerpc/powernv/dump: Fix race while processing OPAL dump powerpc/smp: Use GFP_ATOMIC while allocating tmp mask powerpc/smp: Remove unnecessary variable powerpc/mce: Avoid nmi_enter/exit in real mode on pseries hash powerpc/opal_elog: Handle multiple writes to ack attribute
