Pull s390 updates from Heiko Carstens: "Since Martin is on vacation you get the s390 pull request from me: - Host large page support for KVM guests. As the patches have large impact on arch/s390/mm/ this series goes out via both the KVM and the s390 tree. - Add an option for no compression to the "Kernel compression mode" menu, this will come in handy with the rework of the early boot code. - A large rework of the early boot code that will make life easier for KASAN and KASLR. With the rework the bootable uncompressed image is not generated anymore, only the bzImage is available. For debuggung purposes the new "no compression" option is used. - Re-enable the gcc plugins as the issue with the latent entropy plugin is solved with the early boot code rework. - More spectre relates changes: + Detect the etoken facility and remove expolines automatically. + Add expolines to a few more indirect branches. - A rewrite of the common I/O layer trace points to make them consumable by 'perf stat'. - Add support for format-3 PCI function measurement blocks. - Changes for the zcrypt driver: + Add attributes to indicate the load of cards and queues. + Restructure some code for the upcoming AP device support in KVM. - Build flags improvements in various Makefiles. - A few fixes for the kdump support. - A couple of patches for gcc 8 compile warning cleanup. - Cleanup s390 specific proc handlers. - Add s390 support to the restartable sequence self tests. - Some PTR_RET vs PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO cleanup. - Lots of bug fixes" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux: (107 commits) s390/dasd: fix hanging offline processing due to canceled worker s390/dasd: fix panic for failed online processing s390/mm: fix addressing exception after suspend/resume rseq/selftests: add s390 support s390: fix br_r1_trampoline for machines without exrl s390/lib: use expoline for all bcr instructions s390/numa: move initial setup of node_to_cpumask_map s390/kdump: Fix elfcorehdr size calculation s390/cpum_sf: save TOD clock base in SDBs for time conversion KVM: s390: Add huge page enablement control s390/mm: Add huge page gmap linking support s390/mm: hugetlb pages within a gmap can not be freed KVM: s390: Add skey emulation fault handling s390/mm: Add huge pmd storage key handling s390/mm: Clear skeys for newly mapped huge guest pmds s390/mm: Clear huge page storage keys on enable_skey s390/mm: Add huge page dirty sync support s390/mm: Add gmap pmd invalidation and clearing s390/mm: Add gmap pmd notification bit setting s390/mm: Add gmap pmd linking ...

Pull x86 PTI updates from Thomas Gleixner: "The Speck brigade sadly provides yet another large set of patches destroying the perfomance which we carefully built and preserved - PTI support for 32bit PAE. The missing counter part to the 64bit PTI code implemented by Joerg. - A set of fixes for the Global Bit mechanics for non PCID CPUs which were setting the Global Bit too widely and therefore possibly exposing interesting memory needlessly. - Protection against userspace-userspace SpectreRSB - Support for the upcoming Enhanced IBRS mode, which is preferred over IBRS.

Pull x86 cache QoS (RDT/CAR) updates from Thomas Gleixner: "Add support for pseudo-locked cache regions. Cache Allocation Technology (CAT) allows on certain CPUs to isolate a region of cache and 'lock' it. Cache pseudo-locking builds on the fact that a CPU can still read and write data pre-allocated outside its current allocated area on cache hit. With cache pseudo-locking data can be preloaded into a reserved portion of cache that no application can fill, and from that point on will only serve cache hits. The cache pseudo-locked memory is made accessible to user space where an application can map it into its virtual address space and thus have a region of memory with reduced average read latency. The locking is not perfect and gets totally screwed by WBINDV and similar mechanisms, but it provides a reasonable enhancement for certain types of latency sensitive applications. The implementation extends the current CAT mechanism and provides a generally useful exclusive CAT mode on which it builds the extra pseude-locked regions" * 'x86-cache-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (45 commits) x86/intel_rdt: Disable PMU access x86/intel_rdt: Fix possible circular lock dependency x86/intel_rdt: Make CPU information accessible for pseudo-locked regions x86/intel_rdt: Support restoration of subset of permissions x86/intel_rdt: Fix cleanup of plr structure on error x86/intel_rdt: Move pseudo_lock_region_clear() x86/intel_rdt: Limit C-states dynamically when pseudo-locking active x86/intel_rdt: Support L3 cache performance event of Broadwell x86/intel_rdt: More precise L2 hit/miss measurements x86/intel_rdt: Create character device exposing pseudo-locked region x86/intel_rdt: Create debugfs files for pseudo-locking testing x86/intel_rdt: Create resctrl debug area x86/intel_rdt: Ensure RDT cleanup on exit x86/intel_rdt: Resctrl files reflect pseudo-locked information x86/intel_rdt: Support creation/removal of pseudo-locked region x86/intel_rdt: Pseudo-lock region creation/removal core x86/intel_rdt: Discover supported platforms via prefetch disable bits x86/intel_rdt: Add utilities to test pseudo-locked region possibility x86/intel_rdt: Split resource group removal in two x86/intel_rdt: Enable entering of pseudo-locksetup mode ...

Pull RCU updates from Thomas Gleixner: "A large update to RCU: Preparatory work for consolidating the RCU flavors: - Introduce grace-period sequence numbers to the RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched flavors, replacing the old ->gpnum and ->completed pair of fields. This change allows lockless code to obtain the complete grace-period state with a single READ_ONCE(), which is needed to maintain tolerable lock contention during the upcoming consolidation of the three RCU flavors. Note that grace-period sequence numbers are already used by rcu_barrier(), expedited RCU grace periods, and SRCU, and are thus already heavily used and well-tested. Joel Fernandes contributed a number of excellent fixes and improvements. - Clean up some grace-period-reporting loose ends, including improving the handling of quiescent states from offline CPUs and fixing some false-positive WARN_ON_ONCE() invocations. (Strictly speaking, the WARN_ON_ONCE() invocations were quite correct, but their invariants were (harmlessly) violated by the earlier sloppy handling of quiescent states from offline CPUs.) In addition, improve grace-period forward-progress guarantees so as to allow removal of fail-safe checks that required otherwise needless lock acquisitions. Finally, add more diagnostics to help debug the upcoming consolidation of the RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched flavors. The rest: - SRCU updates - Updates to rcutorture and associated scripting. - The usual pile of miscellaneous fixes" * 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (118 commits) rcutorture: Fix rcu_barrier successes counter rcutorture: Add support to detect if boost kthread prio is too low rcutorture: Use monotonic timestamp for stall detection rcutorture: Make boost test more robust rcutorture: Disable RT throttling for boost tests rcutorture: Emphasize testing of single reader protection type rcutorture: Handle extended read-side critical sections rcutorture: Make rcu_torture_timer() use rcu_torture_one_read() rcutorture: Use per-CPU random state for rcu_torture_timer() rcutorture: Use atomic increment for n_rcu_torture_timers rcutorture: Extract common code from rcu_torture_reader() rcuperf: Remove unused torturing_tasks() function rcu: Remove rcutorture test version and sequence number rcutorture: Change units of onoff_interval to jiffies rcu: Assign higher prio to RCU threads if rcutorture is built-in rculist: Improve documentation for list_for_each_entry_from_rcu() srcu: Add grace-period number to rcutorture statistics printout rcu: Print stall-warning NMI dyntick state in hexadecimal MAINTAINERS: Update RCU, SRCU, and TORTURE-TEST entries rcu: Make rcu_seq_diff() more exact ...

This is purely a preparatory patch for upcoming changes during the 4.19 merge window. We have a function called "boot_cpu_state_init()" that isn't really about the bootup cpu state: that is done much earlier by the similarly named "boot_cpu_init()" (note lack of "state" in name). This function initializes some hotplug CPU state, and needs to run after the percpu data has been properly initialized. It even has a comment to that effect. Except it _doesn't_ actually run after the percpu data has been properly initialized. On x86 it happens to do that, but on at least arm and arm64, the percpu base pointers are initialized by the arch-specific 'smp_prepare_boot_cpu()' hook, which ran _after_ boot_cpu_state_init(). This had some unexpected results, and in particular we have a patch pending for the merge window that did the obvious cleanup of using 'this_cpu_write()' in the cpu hotplug init code: - per_cpu_ptr(&cpuhp_state, smp_processor_id())->state = CPUHP_ONLINE; + this_cpu_write(cpuhp_state.state, CPUHP_ONLINE); which is obviously the right thing to do. Except because of the ordering issue, it actually failed miserably and unexpectedly on arm64. So this just fixes the ordering, and changes the name of the function to be 'boot_cpu_hotplug_init()' to make it obvious that it's about cpu hotplug state, because the core CPU state was supposed to have already been done earlier. Marked for stable, since the (not yet merged) patch that will show this problem is marked for stable.

In cases if some of the entries were not found in forwarding table while killing vlan, the rest not needed entries still left in the table. No need to stop, as entry was deleted anyway. So fix this by returning error only after all was cleaned. To implement this, return -ENOENT in cpsw_ale_del_mcast() as it's supposed to be.

If zram supports writeback feature, it's no longer a BD_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO device beause zram does asynchronous IO operations for incompressible pages. Do not pretend to be synchronous IO device. It makes the system very sluggish due to waiting for IO completion from upper layers. Furthermore, it causes a user-after-free problem because swap thinks the opearion is done when the IO functions returns so it can free the page (e.g., lock_page_or_retry and goto out_release in do_swap_page) but in fact, IO is asynchronous so the driver could access a just freed page afterward. This patch fixes the problem.

With gcc-8 fsanitize=null become very noisy. GCC started to complain about things like &a->b, where 'a' is NULL pointer. There is no NULL dereference, we just calculate address to struct member. It's technically undefined behavior so UBSAN is correct to report it. But as long as there is no real NULL-dereference, I think, we should be fine. -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks compiler flag should protect us from any consequences. So let's just no use -fsanitize=null as it's not useful for us. If there is a real NULL-deref we will see crash. Even if userspace mapped something at NULL (root can do this), with things like SMAP should catch the issue.
