      ARM: 8978/1: mm: make act_mm() respect THREAD_SIZE · e1de9438
      Linus Walleij authored
      Recent work with KASan exposed the folling hard-coded bitmask
      in arch/arm/mm/proc-macros.S:
      
        bic     rd, sp, #8128
        bic     rd, rd, #63
      
      This forms the bitmask 0x1FFF that is coinciding with
      (PAGE_SIZE << THREAD_SIZE_ORDER) - 1, this code was assuming
      that THREAD_SIZE is always 8K (8192).
      
      As KASan was increasing THREAD_SIZE_ORDER to 2, I ran into
      this bug.
      
      Fix it by this little oneline suggested by Ard:
      
        bic     rd, sp, #(THREAD_SIZE - 1) & ~63
      
      Where THREAD_SIZE is defined using THREAD_SIZE_ORDER.
      
      We have to also include <linux/const.h> since the THREAD_SIZE
      expands to use the _AC() macro.

      Simplify EFI handover to decompressor
      
      The EFI stub in the ARM kernel runs in the context of the firmware, which
      means it usually runs with the caches and MMU on. Currently, we relocate
      the zImage so it appears in the first 128 MiB, disable the MMU and caches
      and invoke the decompressor via its ordinary entry point. However, since we
      can pass the base of DRAM directly, there is no need to relocate the zImage,
      which also means there is no need to disable and re-enable the caches and
      create new page tables etc.
      
      This also allows systems whose DRAM start address is not a round multiple
      of 128 MB to decompress the kernel proper to the base of memory, ensuring
      that all memory is usable at runtime.

      ARM: 8971/1: replace the sole use of a symbol with its definition · a780e485
      Jian Cai authored
      ALT_UP_B macro sets symbol up_b_offset via .equ to an expression
      involving another symbol. The macro gets expanded twice when
      arch/arm/kernel/sleep.S is assembled, creating a scenario where
      up_b_offset is set to another expression involving symbols while its
      current value is based on symbols. LLVM integrated assembler does not
      allow such cases, and based on the documentation of binutils, "Values
      that are based on expressions involving other symbols are allowed, but
      some targets may restrict this to only being done once per assembly", so
      it may be better to avoid such cases as it is not clearly stated which
      targets should support or disallow them. The fix in this case is simple,
      as up_b_offset has only one use, so we can replace the use with the
      definition and get rid of up_b_offset.

      ARM: 8969/1: decompressor: simplify libfdt builds · 7ae4a78d
      Masahiro Yamada authored
      Copying source files during the build time may not end up with
      as clean code as expected.
      
      lib/fdt*.c simply wrap scripts/dtc/libfdt/fdt*.c, and it works
      nicely. Let's follow this approach for the arm decompressor, too.
      
      Add four wrappers, arch/arm/boot/compressed/fdt*.c and remove
      the Makefile messes. Another nice thing is we no longer need to
      maintain the own libfdt_env.h because the decompressor can include
      <linux/libfdt_env.h>.
      
      There is a subtle problem when generated files are turned into
      check-in files.
      
      When you are doing a rebuild of an existing object tree with O=
      option, there exists stale "shipped" copies that the old Makefile
      implementation created. The build system ends up with compiling the
      stale generated files because Make searches for prerequisites in the
      current directory, i.e. $(objtree) first, and then the directory
      listed in VPATH, i.e. $(srctree).
      
      To mend this issue, I added the following code:
      
        ifdef building_out_of_srctree
        $(shell rm -f $(addprefix $(obj)/, fdt_rw.c fdt_ro.c fdt_wip.c fdt.c))
        endif
      
      This will need to stay for a while because "git bisect" crossing this
      commit, otherwise, would result in a build error.

      MAINTAINERS: sort field names for all entries · 3b50142d
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This sorts the actual field names too, potentially causing even more
      chaos and confusion at merge time if you have edited the MAINTAINERS
      file.  But the end result is a more consistent layout, and hopefully
      it's a one-time pain minimized by doing this just before the -rc1
      release.
      
      This was entirely scripted:
      
        ./scripts/parse-maintainers.pl --input=MAINTAINERS --output=MAINTAINERS --order

      MAINTAINERS: sort entries by entry name · 4400b7d6
      Linus Torvalds authored
      They are all supposed to be sorted, but people who add new entries don't
      always know the alphabet.  Plus sometimes the entry names get edited,
      and people don't then re-order the entry.
      
      Let's see how painful this will be for merging purposes (the MAINTAINERS
      file is often edited in various different trees), but Joe claims there's
      relatively few patches in -next that touch this, and doing it just
      before -rc1 is likely the best time.  Fingers crossed.
      
      This was scripted with
      
        /scripts/parse-maintainers.pl --input=MAINTAINERS --output=MAINTAINERS
      
      but then I also ended up manually upper-casing a few entry names that
      stood out when looking at the end result.

        Add proper sanity checks which prevent the unconditional injection
        into the guest and handles the #AC on the host side in the same way as
        user space detections are handled. Depending on the detection mode it
        either warns and disables detection for the task or kills the task if
        the mode is set to fatal"

       - Fix the time_for_children symlink in /proc/$PID/ so it properly

       - Add the missing userns limit for the allowed number of time
         namespaces, which was half defined but the actual array member was
         not added. This went unnoticed as the array has an exessive empty
         member at the end but introduced a user visible regression as the
         output was corrupted.
      
       - Prevent further silent ucount corruption by adding a BUILD_BUG_ON()
         to catch half updated data.
