At the request of the reporter, the Linux kernel security team offers to postpone the publishing of a fix for up to 5 business days from the date of a report. While it is generally undesirable to keep a fix private after it has been developed, this short window is intended to allow distributions to package the fix into their kernel builds and permits early inclusion of the security team in the case of a co-ordinated disclosure with other parties. Unfortunately, discussions with major Linux distributions and cloud providers has revealed that 5 business days is not sufficient to achieve either of these two goals. As an example, cloud providers need to roll out KVM security fixes to a global fleet of hosts with sufficient early ramp-up and monitoring. An end-to-end timeline of less than two weeks dramatically cuts into the amount of early validation and increases the chance of guest-visible regressions. The consequence of this timeline mismatch is that security issues are commonly fixed without the involvement of the Linux kernel security team and are instead analysed and addressed by an ad-hoc group of developers across companies contributing to Linux. In some cases, mainline (and therefore the official stable kernels) can be left to languish for extended periods of time. This undermines the Linux kernel security process and puts upstream developers in a difficult position should they find themselves involved with an undisclosed security problem that they are unable to report due to restrictions from their employer. To accommodate the needs of these users of the Linux kernel and encourage them to engage with the Linux security team when security issues are first uncovered, extend the maximum period for which fixes may be delayed to 7 calendar days, or 14 calendar days in exceptional cases, where the logistics of QA and large scale rollouts specifically need to be accommodated. This brings parity with the linux-distros@ maximum embargo period of 14 calendar days.

There are uniform, non-uniform and flexible erase flash configurations. The non-uniform erase types, are the erase types that can _not_ erase the entire flash by their own. As the code was, in case flashes had flexible erase capabilities (support both uniform and non-uniform erase types in the same flash configuration) and supported multiple uniform erase type sizes, the code did not sort the uniform erase types, and could select a wrong erase type size. Sort the uniform erase mask in case of flexible erase flash configurations, in order to select the best uniform erase type size. Uniform, non-uniform, and flexible configurations with just a valid uniform erase type, are not affected by this change. Uniform erase tested on mx25l3273fm2i-08g and sst26vf064B-104i/sn. Non uniform erase tested on sst26vf064B-104i/sn.

Marcin Juszkiewicz reported issues while generating syscall table for riscv using 4.20-rc1. The patch refactors our unistd.h files to match some other architectures. - Add asm/unistd.h UAPI header, which has __ARCH_WANT_NEW_STAT only for 64-bit - Remove asm/syscalls.h UAPI header and merge to asm/unistd.h - Adjust kernel asm/unistd.h So now asm/unistd.h UAPI header should show all syscalls for riscv. Before this, Makefile simply put `#include <asm-generic/unistd.h>` into generated asm/unistd.h UAPI header thus user didn't see: - __NR_riscv_flush_icache - __NR_newfstatat - __NR_fstat which are supported by riscv kernel.

This patch extends Linux RISC-V build system to build and install: Image - Flat uncompressed kernel image Image.gz - Flat and GZip compressed kernel image Quiet a few bootloaders (such as Uboot, UEFI, etc) are capable of booting flat and compressed kernel images. In case of Uboot, booting Image or Image.gz is achieved using bootm command. The flat and uncompressed kernel image (i.e. Image) is very useful in pre-silicon developent and testing because we can create back-door HEX files for RAM on FPGAs from Image.

When writing packets to a descriptor associated with a combined queue, the packets should end up on that queue. Before this change all packets written to any descriptor associated with a tap interface end up on rx-0, even when the descriptor is associated with a different queue. The rx traffic can be generated by either of the following. 1. a simple tap program which spins up multiple queues and writes packets to each of the file descriptors 2. tx from a qemu vm with a tap multiqueue netdev The queue for rx traffic can be observed by either of the following (done on the hypervisor in the qemu case). 1. a simple netmap program which opens and reads from per-queue descriptors 2. configuring RPS and doing per-cpu captures with rxtxcpu Alternatively, if you printk() the return value of skb_get_rx_queue() just before each instance of netif_receive_skb() in tun.c, you will get 65535 for every skb. Calling skb_record_rx_queue() to set the rx queue to the queue_index fixes the association between descriptor and rx queue.

Pull ARM spectre updates from Russell King: "These are the currently known final bits that resolve the Spectre issues. big.Little systems used to be sufficiently identical in that there were no differences between individual CPUs in the system that mattered to the kernel. With the advent of the Spectre problem, the CPUs now have differences in how the workaround is applied. As a result of previous Spectre patches, these systems ended up reporting quite a lot of: "CPUx: Spectre v2: incorrect context switching function, system vulnerable" messages due to the action of the big.Little switcher causing the CPUs to be re-initialised regularly. This series resolves that issue by making the CPU vtable unique to each CPU. However, since this is used very early, before per-cpu is setup, per-cpu can't be used. We also have a problem that two of the methods are not called from preempt-safe paths, but thankfully these remain identical between all CPUs in the system. To make sure, we validate that these are identical during boot" * 'spectre' of git://git.armlinux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm: ARM: spectre-v2: per-CPU vtables to work around big.Little systems ARM: add PROC_VTABLE and PROC_TABLE macros ARM: clean up per-processor check_bugs method call ARM: split out processor lookup ARM: make lookup_processor_type() non-__init

Other filesystems such as ext4, f2fs and ubifs all return ENXIO when lseek (SEEK_DATA or SEEK_HOLE) requests a negative offset. man 2 lseek says : EINVAL whence is not valid. Or: the resulting file offset would be : negative, or beyond the end of a seekable device. : : ENXIO whence is SEEK_DATA or SEEK_HOLE, and the file offset is beyond : the end of the file. Make tmpfs return ENXIO under these circumstances as well. After this, tmpfs also passes xfstests's generic/448.

Scan through the whole array to see if an update is needed. While we're at it, use sizeof() to be safe against any possible type changes in the future. The bug here is that we wouldn't sync per-cpu counters into global ones if there was an update of numa_stats for higher cpus. Highly theoretical one though because it is much more probable that zone_stats are updated so we would refresh anyway. So I wouldn't bother to mark this for stable, yet something nice to fix.

Spock reported that commit 172b06c3 ("mm: slowly shrink slabs with a relatively small number of objects") leads to a regression on his setup: periodically the majority of the pagecache is evicted without an obvious reason, while before the change the amount of free memory was balancing around the watermark. The reason behind is that the mentioned above change created some minimal background pressure on the inode cache. The problem is that if an inode is considered to be reclaimed, all belonging pagecache page are stripped, no matter how many of them are there. So, if a huge multi-gigabyte file is cached in the memory, and the goal is to reclaim only few slab objects (unused inodes), we still can eventually evict all gigabytes of the pagecache at once. The workload described by Spock has few large non-mapped files in the pagecache, so it's especially noticeable. To solve the problem let's postpone the reclaim of inodes, which have more than 1 attached page. Let's wait until the pagecache pages will be evicted naturally by scanning the corresponding LRU lists, and only then reclaim the inode structure.

Page state checks are racy. Under a heavy memory workload (e.g. stress -m 200 -t 2h) it is quite easy to hit a race window when the page is allocated but its state is not fully populated yet. A debugging patch to dump the struct page state shows has_unmovable_pages: pfn:0x10dfec00, found:0x1, count:0x0 page:ffffea0437fb0000 count:1 mapcount:1 mapping:ffff880e05239841 index:0x7f26e5000 compound_mapcount: 1 flags: 0x5fffffc0090034(uptodate|lru|active|head|swapbacked) Note that the state has been checked for both PageLRU and PageSwapBacked already. Closing this race completely would require some sort of retry logic. This can be tricky and error prone (think of potential endless or long taking loops). Workaround this problem for movable zones at least. Such a zone should only contain movable pages. Commit 15c30bc0 ("mm, memory_hotplug: make has_unmovable_pages more robust") has told us that this is not strictly true though. Bootmem pages should be marked reserved though so we can move the original check after the PageReserved check. Pages from other zones are still prone to races but we even do not pretend that memory hotremove works for those so pre-mature failure doesn't hurt that much.

Commit a2468cc9 ("swap: choose swap device according to numa node") changed 'avail_lists' field of 'struct swap_info_struct' to an array. In popular linux distros it increased size of swap_info_struct up to 40 Kbytes and now swap_info_struct allocation requires order-4 page. Switch to kvzmalloc allows to avoid unexpected allocation failures.
