<id>urn:sha1:5baf8b037debf4ec60108ccfeccb8636d1dbad81</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently MTE is permitted in two circumstances (desiring to use MTE
having been specified by the VM_MTE flag) - where MAP_ANONYMOUS is
specified, as checked by arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() and actualised by
setting the VM_MTE_ALLOWED flag, or if the file backing the mapping is
shmem, in which case we set VM_MTE_ALLOWED in shmem_mmap() when the mmap
hook is activated in mmap_region().

The function that checks that, if VM_MTE is set, VM_MTE_ALLOWED is also
set is the arm64 implementation of arch_validate_flags().

Unfortunately, we intend to refactor mmap_region() to perform this check
earlier, meaning that in the case of a shmem backing we will not have
invoked shmem_mmap() yet, causing the mapping to fail spuriously.

It is inappropriate to set this architecture-specific flag in general mm
code anyway, so a sensible resolution of this issue is to instead move the
check somewhere else.

We resolve this by setting VM_MTE_ALLOWED much earlier in do_mmap(), via
the arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() call.

This is an appropriate place to do this as we already check for the
MAP_ANONYMOUS case here, and the shmem file case is simply a variant of
the same idea - we permit RAM-backed memory.

This requires a modification to the arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() signature to
pass in a pointer to the struct file associated with the mapping, however
this is not too egregious as this is only used by two architectures anyway
- arm64 and parisc.

So this patch performs this adjustment and removes the unnecessary
assignment of VM_MTE_ALLOWED in shmem_mmap().

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix whitespace, per Catalin]

Declarations local to arch/*/kernel/*.c are better off *not* in a public
header - arch/parisc/kernel/unaligned.h is just fine for those
bits.

With that done parisc asm/unaligned.h is reduced to include
of asm-generic/unaligned.h and can be removed - unaligned.h is in
mandatory-y in include/asm-generic/Kbuild.

Pull parisc architecture updates from Helge Deller:

 - On parisc we now use the generic clockevent framework for timekeeping

 - Although there is no 64-bit glibc/userspace for parisc yet, for
   testing purposes one can run statically linked 64-bit binaries. This
   patchset contains two patches which fix 64-bit userspace which has
   been broken since kernel 4.19

 - Fix the userspace stack position and size when the ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE
   personality is enabled

 - On other architectures mmap(MAP_GROWSDOWN | MAP_STACK) creates a
   downward-growing stack. On parisc mmap(MAP_STACK) is now sufficient
   to create an upward-growing stack

* tag 'parisc-for-6.12-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux:
  parisc: Allow mmap(MAP_STACK) memory to automatically expand upwards

  parisc: Fix itlb miss handler for 64-bit programs

<content type='text'>
When userspace allocates memory with mmap() in order to be used for stack,
allow this memory region to automatically expand upwards up until the
current maximum process stack size.
The fault handler checks if the VM_GROWSUP bit is set in the vm_flags field
of a memory area before it allows it to expand.
This patch modifies the parisc specific code only.
A RFC for a generic patch to modify mmap() for all architectures was sent
to the mailing list but did not get enough Acks.

In tcp_recvmsg_locked(), detect if the skb being received by the user
is a devmem skb. In this case - if the user provided the MSG_SOCK_DEVMEM
flag - pass it to tcp_recvmsg_devmem() for custom handling.

tcp_recvmsg_devmem() copies any data in the skb header to the linear
buffer, and returns a cmsg to the user indicating the number of bytes
returned in the linear buffer.

tcp_recvmsg_devmem() then loops over the unaccessible devmem skb frags,
and returns to the user a cmsg_devmem indicating the location of the
data in the dmabuf device memory. cmsg_devmem contains this information:

1. the offset into the dmabuf where the payload starts. 'frag_offset'.
2. the size of the frag. 'frag_size'.
3. an opaque token 'frag_token' to return to the kernel when the buffer
is to be released.

The pages awaiting freeing are stored in the newly added
sk-&gt;sk_user_frags, and each page passed to userspace is get_page()'d.
This reference is dropped once the userspace indicates that it is
done reading this page.  All pages are released when the socket is
destroyed.

ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN was defined as 16 - this is too small - it may be
possible that two unrelated 16-byte allocations share a cache line. If
one of these allocations is written using DMA and the other is written
using cached write, the value that was written with DMA may be
corrupted.

This commit changes ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN to be 128 on PA20 and 32 on PA1.1 -
that's the largest possible cache line size.

As different parisc microarchitectures have different cache line size, we
define arch_slab_minalign(), cache_line_size() and
dma_get_cache_alignment() so that the kernel may tune slab cache
parameters dynamically, based on the detected cache line size.

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big set of driver core changes for 6.11-rc1.

  Lots of stuff in here, with not a huge diffstat, but apis are evolving
  which required lots of files to be touched. Highlights of the changes
  in here are:

   - platform remove callback api final fixups (Uwe took many releases
     to get here, finally!)

   - Rust bindings for basic firmware apis and initial driver-core
     interactions.

     It's not all that useful for a "write a whole driver in rust" type
     of thing, but the firmware bindings do help out the phy rust
     drivers, and the driver core bindings give a solid base on which
     others can start their work.

     There is still a long way to go here before we have a multitude of
     rust drivers being added, but it's a great first step.

   - driver core const api changes.

     This reached across all bus types, and there are some fix-ups for
     some not-common bus types that linux-next and 0-day testing shook
     out.

     This work is being done to help make the rust bindings more safe,
     as well as the C code, moving toward the end-goal of allowing us to
     put driver structures into read-only memory. We aren't there yet,
     but are getting closer.

   - minor devres cleanups and fixes found by code inspection

   - arch_topology minor changes

   - other minor driver core cleanups

  All of these have been in linux-next for a very long time with no
  reported problems"
