      uapi/linux/a.out.h: don't use deprecated system-specific predefines. · fbd57629
      Zack Weinberg authored 
      uapi/linux/a.out.h uses a number of predefined macros that are
deprecated because they're in the application namespace
(e.g. '#ifdef linux' instead of '#ifdef __linux__').
This patch either corrects or just removes them if they are not
applicable to Linux.

The primary reason this is worth bothering to fix, considering how
obsolete a.out binary support is, is that the GCC build process
considers this such a severe error that it will copy the header into a
private directory and change the macro names, which causes future
updates to the header to be masked.  This header probably doesn't get
updated very often anymore, but it is the _only_ uapi header that gets
this treatment, so IMHO it is worth patching just to drive that number
all the way to zero.

 "Hopefully the last two powerpc fixes for 4.12.

  The CXL one is larger than I'd usually send at rc7, but it fixes new
  code this cycle, so better to have it working for the release. It was
  actually sent a few weeks back but got blocked in testing behind
  another fix that was causing issues.

  We are still tracking one crash in v4.12-rc7, but only one person has
  reproduced it and the commit identified by bisect doesn't touch any of
  the relevant code, so I think it's 50/50 whether that commit is
  actually the problem or it's some code layout / toolchain issue.

  Two fixes for code we merged this cycle:

   - cxl: Fixes for Coherent Accelerator Interface Architecture 2.0

   - Avoid miscompilation w/GCC 4.6.3 on 32-bit - don't inline
     copy_to/from_user()

      x86/boot/KASLR: Fix kexec crash due to 'virt_addr' calculation bug · 8eabf42a
      Baoquan He authored 
      Kernel text KASLR is separated into physical address and virtual
address randomization. And for virtual address randomization, we
only randomiza to get an offset between 16M and KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE.
So the initial value of 'virt_addr' should be LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR,
but not the original kernel loading address 'output'.

The bug will cause kernel boot failure if kernel is loaded at a different
position than the address, 16M, which is decided at compiled time.
Kexec/kdump is such practical case.

To fix it, just assign LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR to virt_addr as initial
value.

      x86/boot/KASLR: Add checking for the offset of kernel virtual address randomization · b892cb87
      Baoquan He authored 
      For kernel text KASLR, the virtual address is confined to area of 1G,
[0xffffffff80000000, 0xffffffffc0000000). For the implemenataion of
virtual address randomization, we only randomize to get an offset
between 16M and 1G, then add this offset to the starting address,
0xffffffff80000000. Here 16M is the offset which is decided at linking
stage. So the amount of the local variable 'virt_addr' which respresents
the offset plus the kernel output size can not exceed KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE.

Add a debug check for the offset. If out of bounds, print error
message and hang there.

      tracing/kprobes: Allow to create probe with a module name starting with a digit · 9e52b325
      Sabrina Dubroca authored 
      Always try to parse an address, since kstrtoul() will safely fail when
given a symbol as input. If that fails (which will be the case for a
symbol), try to parse a symbol instead.

This allows creating a probe such as:

    p:probe/vlan_gro_receive 8021q:vlan_gro_receive+0

Which is necessary for this command to work:

    perf probe -m 8021q -a vlan_gro_receive

      MIPS: Avoid accidental raw backtrace · 85423636
      James Hogan authored 
      Since commit 81a76d71 ("MIPS: Avoid using unwind_stack() with
usermode") show_backtrace() invokes the raw backtracer when
cp0_status & ST0_KSU indicates user mode to fix issues on EVA kernels
where user and kernel address spaces overlap.

However this is used by show_stack() which creates its own pt_regs on
the stack and leaves cp0_status uninitialised in most of the code paths.
This results in the non deterministic use of the raw back tracer
depending on the previous stack content.

show_stack() deals exclusively with kernel mode stacks anyway, so
explicitly initialise regs.cp0_status to KSU_KERNEL (i.e. 0) to ensure
we get a useful backtrace.

      MIPS: Perform post-DMA cache flushes on systems with MAARs · cad482c1
      Paul Burton authored 
      Recent CPUs from Imagination Technologies such as the I6400 or P6600 are
able to speculatively fetch data from memory into caches. This means
that if used in a system with non-coherent DMA they require that caches
be invalidated after a device performs DMA, and before the CPU reads the
DMA'd data, in order to ensure that stale values weren't speculatively
prefetched.

Such CPUs also introduced Memory Accessibility Attribute Registers
(MAARs) in order to control the regions in which they are allowed to
speculate. Thus we can use the presence of MAARs as a good indication
that the CPU requires the above cache maintenance. Use the presence of
MAARs to determine the result of cpu_needs_post_dma_flush() in the
default case, in order to handle these recent CPUs correctly.

Note that the return type of cpu_needs_post_dma_flush() is changed to
bool, such that it's clearer what's happening when cpu_has_maar is cast
to bool for the return value. If this patch were backported to a
pre-v4.7 kernel then MIPS_CPU_MAAR was 1ull<<34, so when cast to an int
we would incorrectly return 0. It so happens that MIPS_CPU_MAAR is
currently 1ull<<30, so when truncated to an int gives a non-zero value
anyway, but even so the implicit conversion from long long int to bool
makes it clearer to understand what will happen than the implicit
conversion from long long int to int would. The bool return type also
fits this usage better semantically, so seems like an all-round win.

Thanks to Ed for spotting the issue for pre-v4.7 kernels & suggesting
the return type change.

      MIPS: Fix IRQ tracing & lockdep when rescheduling · d8550860
      Paul Burton authored 
      When the scheduler sets TIF_NEED_RESCHED & we call into the scheduler
from arch/mips/kernel/entry.S we disable interrupts. This is true
regardless of whether we reach work_resched from syscall_exit_work,
resume_userspace or by looping after calling schedule(). Although we
disable interrupts in these paths we don't call trace_hardirqs_off()
before calling into C code which may acquire locks, and we therefore
leave lockdep with an inconsistent view of whether interrupts are
disabled or not when CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING & CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP are
both enabled.

Without tracing this interrupt state lockdep will print warnings such
as the following once a task returns from a syscall via
syscall_exit_partial with TIF_NEED_RESCHED set:

Fix this by using the TRACE_IRQS_OFF macro to call trace_hardirqs_off()
when CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS is enabled. This is done before invoking
schedule() following the work_resched label because:

 1) Interrupts are disabled regardless of the path we take to reach
    work_resched() & schedule().

 2) Performing the tracing here avoids the need to do it in paths which
    disable interrupts but don't call out to C code before hitting a
    path which uses the RESTORE_SOME macro that will call
    trace_hardirqs_on() or trace_hardirqs_off() as appropriate.

We call trace_hardirqs_on() using the TRACE_IRQS_ON macro before calling
syscall_trace_leave() for similar reasons, ensuring that lockdep has a
consistent view of state after we re-enable interrupts.
