Commit 338d4f49 ("arm64: kernel: Add support for Privileged Access Never") enabled PAN by enabling the 'SPAN' feature-bit in SCTLR_EL1. This means the PSTATE.PAN bit won't be set until the next return to the kernel from userspace. On a preemptible kernel we may schedule work that accesses userspace on a CPU before it has done this. Now that cpufeature enable() calls are scheduled via stop_machine(), we can set PSTATE.PAN from the cpu_enable_pan() call. Add WARN_ON_ONCE(in_interrupt()) to check the PSTATE value we updated is not immediately discarded. Reported-by:

The enable() call for a cpufeature/errata is called using on_each_cpu(). This issues a cross-call IPI to get the work done. Implicitly, this stashes the running PSTATE in SPSR when the CPU receives the IPI, and restores it when we return. This means an enable() call can never modify PSTATE. To allow PAN to do this, change the on_each_cpu() call to use stop_machine(). This schedules the work on each CPU which allows us to modify PSTATE. This involves changing the protype of all the enable() functions. enable_cpu_capabilities() is called during boot and enables the feature on all online CPUs. This path now uses stop_machine(). CPU features for hotplug'd CPUs are enabled by verify_local_cpu_features() which only acts on the local CPU, and can already modify the running PSTATE as it is called from secondary_start_kernel().

Commit 7dd01aef ("arm64: trap userspace "dc cvau" cache operation on errata-affected core") adds code to execute cache maintenance instructions in the kernel on behalf of userland on CPUs with certain ARM CPU errata. It turns out that the address hasn't been checked to be a valid user space address, allowing userland to clean cache lines in kernel space. Fix this by introducing an address check before executing the instructions on behalf of userland. Since the address doesn't come via a syscall parameter, we can't just reject tagged pointers and instead have to remove the tag when checking against the user address limit.

Writing the outer loop of an LL/SC sequence using do {...} while constructs potentially allows the compiler to hoist memory accesses between the STXR and the branch back to the LDXR. On CPUs that do not guarantee forward progress of LL/SC loops when faced with memory accesses to the same ERG (up to 2k) between the failed STXR and the branch back, we may end up livelocking. This patch avoids this issue in our percpu atomics by rewriting the outer loop as part of the LL/SC inline assembly block.

If a CPU does not implement a global monitor for certain memory types, then userspace can attempt a kernel DoS by issuing SWP instructions targetting the problematic memory (for example, a framebuffer mapped with non-cacheable attributes). The SWP emulation code protects against these sorts of attacks by checking for pending signals and potentially rescheduling when the STXR instruction fails during the emulation. Whilst this is good for avoiding livelock, it harms emulation of legitimate SWP instructions on CPUs where forward progress is not guaranteed if there are memory accesses to the same reservation granule (up to 2k) between the failing STXR and the retry of the LDXR. This patch solves the problem by retrying the STXR a bounded number of times (4) before breaking out of the LL/SC loop and looking for something else to do.

Commit 8a71f0c6 ("arm64: sysreg: replace open-coded mrs_s/msr_s with {read,write}_sysreg_s") introduced a write_sysreg_s macro for writing to system registers that are not supported by binutils. Unfortunately, this was implemented with the wrong template (%0 vs %x0), so in the case that we are writing a constant 0, we will generate invalid instruction syntax and bail with a cryptic assembler error: | Error: constant expression required This patch fixes the template.

The RANDOMIZE_MODULE_REGION_FULL Kconfig option allows KASLR to be configured in such a way that kernel modules and the core kernel are allocated completely independently, which implies that modules are likely to require branches via PLT entries to reach the core kernel. The dynamic ftrace code does not expect that, and assumes that it can patch module code to perform a relative branch to anywhere in the core kernel. This may result in errors such as branch_imm_common: offset out of range ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 196 at kernel/trace/ftrace.c:1995 ftrace_bug+0x220/0x2e8 Modules linked in: CPU: 3 PID: 196 Comm: systemd-udevd Not tainted 4.8.0-22-generic #24 Hardware name: AMD Seattle/Seattle, BIOS 10:34:40 Oct 6 2016 task: ffff8d1bef7dde80 task.stack: ffff8d1bef6b0000 PC is at ftrace_bug+0x220/0x2e8 LR is at ftrace_process_locs+0x330/0x430 So make RANDOMIZE_MODULE_REGION_FULL mutually exclusive with DYNAMIC_FTRACE at the Kconfig level.

In acpi_get_pmu_hw_inf we pass the address of a local variable to IS_ERR(), which doesn't make sense, as the pointer must be a real, valid pointer. This doesn't cause a functional problem, as IS_ERR() will evaluate as false, but the check is bogus and causes static checkers to complain. Remove the bogus check.

Commit 7ba5f605 ("arm64/numa: remove the limitation that cpu0 must bind to node0") removed the numa cpu<->node mapping restriction whereby logical cpu 0 always corresponds to numa node 0; removing the restriction was correct, in that it does not really exist in practice but the commit only updated the early mapping of logical cpu 0 to its real numa node for the DT boot path, missing the ACPI one, leading to boot failures on ACPI systems owing to missing node<->cpu map for logical cpu 0. Fix the issue by updating the ACPI boot path with code that carries out the early cpu<->node mapping also for the boot cpu (ie cpu 0), mirroring what is currently done in the DT boot path.

Change thaw_super() to check frozen != SB_FREEZE_COMPLETE rather than frozen == SB_UNFROZEN, otherwise it can race with freeze_super() which drops sb->s_umount after SB_FREEZE_WRITE to preserve the lock ordering. In this case thaw_super() will wrongly call s_op->unfreeze_fs() before it was actually frozen, and call sb_freeze_unlock() which leads to the unbalanced percpu_up_write(). Unfortunately lockdep can't detect this, so this triggers misc BUG_ON()'s in kernel/rcu/sync.c. Reported-and-tested-by:

Both import_iovec() and rw_copy_check_uvector() take an array (typically small and on-stack) which is used to hold an iovec array copy from userspace. This is to avoid an expensive memory allocation in the fast path (i.e. few iovec elements). The caller may have to check whether these functions actually used the provided buffer or allocated a new one -- but this differs between the too. Let's just add a kernel doc to clarify what the semantics are for each function. Signed-off-by:

Pull rdma qedr RoCE driver from Doug Ledford: "Early on in the merge window I mentioned I had a backlog of new drivers waiting to be reviewed and that, in addition to the hns-roce driver, I wanted to get possible a couple more reviewed. I ended up only having the time to complete one of the additional drivers. During Dave Miller's pull request this go around, there were a series of 9 patches to the QLogic qed net driver that add basic support for a paired RoCE driver. That support is currently not functional because it is missing the matching RoCE driver in the RDMA subsystem. I managed to finish that review. However, because it goes against part of Dave's net pull, and a part that was accepted a day or two after the merge window opened, to apply cleanly it has to be applied to either the tip of Dave's net branch, or as I did in this case, I just applied it to your master after you had taken Dave's pull request." * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dledford/rdma: qedr: Add events support and register IB device qedr: Add GSI support qedr: Add LL2 RoCE interface qedr: Add support for data path qedr: Add support for memory registeration verbs qedr: Add support for QP verbs qedr: Add support for PD,PKEY and CQ verbs qedr: Add support for user context verbs qedr: Add support for RoCE HW init qedr: Add RoCE driver framework

Pull more rdma updates from Doug Ledford: "This merge window was the first where Huawei had to try and coordinate their patches between their net driver and their new roce driver (similar to mlx4 and mlx5). They didn't do horribly, but there were some issues (and we knew that because they simply didn't know what to do in the beginning). As a result, I had a set of patches that depended on some patches that normally would have come to you via Dave's tree. Those patches have been on netdev@ for a while, so I got Dave to give me his approval to send them to you. As such, the other 29 patches I had behind them are also now ready to go. This catches the hns and hns-roce drivers up to current, and for future patches we are working with them to get them up to speed on how to do joint driver development so that they don't have these sorts of cross tree dependency issues again. BTW, Dave gave me permission to add his Acked-by: to the patches against the net tree, but I've had this branch through 0day (but not linux-next since it was off by itself) and I didn't want to rebase the series just to add Dave's ack for the 8 patches in the net area.

New mount option "idsfromsid" indicates to cifs.ko that it should try to retrieve the uid and gid owner fields from special sids. This patch adds the code to parse the owner sids in the ACL to see if they match, and if so populate the uid and/or gid from them. This is faster than upcalling for them and asking winbind, and is a fairly common case, and is also helpful when cifs.upcall and idmapping is not configured. Signed-off-by:
