As Joseph Myers points out, alpha has never had a standard statfs64
interface and instead returns only 32-bit numbers here.
While there is an old osf_statfs64 system call that returns additional
data, this has some other quirks and does not get used in glibc.
I considered making the stat64 structure layout compatible with
with the one used by the kernel on most other 64 bit architecture that
implement it (ia64, parisc, powerpc, and sparc), but in the end
decided to stay with the one that was traditionally defined in
the alpha headers but not used, since this is also what glibc
exposes to user space.

Most architectures define system call numbers for the rseq and pkey system
calls, even when they don't support the features, and perhaps never will.
Only a few architectures are missing these, so just define them anyway
for consistency. If we decide to add them later to one of these, the
system call numbers won't get out of sync then.

The behavior of these system calls is slightly different between
architectures, as determined by the CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_IPC_PARSE_VERSION
symbol. Most architectures that implement the split IPC syscalls don't set
that symbol and only get the modern version, but alpha, arm, microblaze,
mips-n32, mips-n64 and xtensa expect the caller to pass the IPC_64 flag.
For the architectures that so far only implement sys_ipc(), i.e. m68k,
mips-o32, powerpc, s390, sh, sparc, and x86-32, we want the new behavior
when adding the split syscalls, so we need to distinguish between the
two groups of architectures.
The method I picked for this distinction is to have a separate system call
entry point: sys_old_*ctl() now uses ipc_parse_version, while sys_*ctl()
does not. The system call tables of the five architectures are changed
accordingly.
As an additional benefit, we no longer need the configuration specific
definition for ipc_parse_version(), it always does the same thing now,
but simply won't get called on architectures with the modern interface.
A small downside is that on architectures that do set
ARCH_WANT_IPC_PARSE_VERSION, we now have an extra set of entry points
that are never called. They only add a few bytes of bloat, so it seems
better to keep them compared to adding yet another Kconfig symbol.
I considered adding new syscall numbers for the IPC_64 variants for
consistency, but decided against that for now.

Other architectures commonly use __NR_umount2 for sys_umount,
only ia64 and alpha use __NR_umount here. In order to synchronize
the generated tables, use umount2 like everyone else, and add back
the old name from asm/unistd.h for compatibility.
For shmat, alpha uses the osf_shmat name, we can do the same thing
here, which means we don't have to add an entry in the __IGNORE
list now that shmat is mandatory everywhere
alarm, creat, pause, time, and utime are optional everywhere
these days, no need to list them here any more.
I considered also adding the regular versions of the get*id system
calls that have different names and calling conventions on alpha,
which would further help unify the syscall ABI, but for now
I decided against that.

As the Alpha PMU doesn't support context exclusion let's advertise
the PERF_PMU_CAP_NO_EXCLUDE capability. This ensures that perf will
prevent us from handling events where any exclusion flags are set.
Let's also remove the now unnecessary check for exclusion flags.
This change means that __hw_perf_event_init will now also
indicate that it doesn't support exclude_host and exclude_guest and
will now implicitly return -EINVAL instead of -EPERM. This is likely
more desirable as -EPERM will result in a kernel.perf_event_paranoid
related warning from the perf userspace utility.

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.
It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.
A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.
This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.
There were a couple of notable cases:
- csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.
- the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
really used it)
- microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout
but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.
I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

Pull DMA mapping updates from Christoph Hellwig:
"A huge update this time, but a lot of that is just consolidating or
removing code:
- provide a common DMA_MAPPING_ERROR definition and avoid indirect
calls for dma_map_* error checking
- use direct calls for the DMA direct mapping case, avoiding huge
retpoline overhead for high performance workloads
- merge the swiotlb dma_map_ops into dma-direct
- provide a generic remapping DMA consistent allocator for
architectures that have devices that perform DMA that is not cache
coherent. Based on the existing arm64 implementation and also used
for csky now.
- improve the dma-debug infrastructure, including dynamic allocation
of entries (Robin Murphy)
- default to providing chaining scatterlist everywhere, with opt-outs
for the few architectures (alpha, parisc, most arm32 variants) that
can't cope with it
- misc sparc32 dma-related cleanups
- remove the dma_mark_clean arch hook used by swiotlb on ia64 and
replace it with the generic noncoherent infrastructure
- fix the return type of dma_set_max_seg_size (Niklas Söderlund)
- move the dummy dma ops for not DMA capable devices from arm64 to
common code (Robin Murphy)
- ensure dma_alloc_coherent returns zeroed memory to avoid kernel
data leaks through userspace. We already did this for most common
architectures, but this ensures we do it everywhere.
dma_zalloc_coherent has been deprecated and can hopefully be
removed after -rc1 with a coccinelle script"

The system call tables are in different format in all
architecture and it will be difficult to manually add,
modify or delete the syscall table entries in the res-
pective files. To make it easy by keeping a script and
which will generate the uapi header and syscall table
file. This change will also help to unify the implemen-
tation across all architectures.
The system call table generation script is added in
kernel/syscalls directory which contain the scripts to
generate both uapi header file and system call table
files. The syscall.tbl will be input for the scripts.
syscall.tbl contains the list of available system calls
along with system call number and corresponding entry
point. Add a new system call in this architecture will
be possible by adding new entry in the syscall.tbl file.
Adding a new table entry consisting of:
- System call number.
- ABI.
- System call name.
- Entry point name.
syscallhdr.sh and syscalltbl.sh will generate uapi header
unistd_32.h and syscall_table.h files respectively. Both
.sh files will parse the content syscall.tbl to generate
the header and table files. unistd_32.h will be included
by uapi/asm/unistd.h and syscall_table.h is included by
kernel/syscall.S - the real system call table.
ARM, s390 and x86 architecuture does have similar support.
I leverage their implementation to come up with a generic
solution.

If we want to map memory from the DMA allocator to userspace it must be
zeroed at allocation time to prevent stale data leaks. We already do
this on most common architectures, but some architectures don't do this
yet, fix them up, either by passing GFP_ZERO when we use the normal page
allocator or doing a manual memset otherwise.

The conversion of alpha to memblock as the early memory manager caused
boot to hang as described at [1].
The issue is caused because for CONFIG_DISCTONTIGMEM=y case,
memblock_add() is called using memory start PFN that had been rounded
down to the nearest 8Mb and it caused memblock to see more memory that
is actually present in the system.
Besides, memblock allocates memory from high addresses while bootmem was
using low memory, which broke the assumption that early allocations are
always accessible by the hardware.
This patch ensures that memblock_add() is using the correct PFN for the
memory start and forces memblock to use bottom-up allocations.

When a memblock allocation APIs are called with align = 0, the alignment
is implicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES.
Implicit alignment is done deep in the memblock allocator and it can
come as a surprise. Not that such an alignment would be wrong even
when used incorrectly but it is better to be explicit for the sake of
clarity and the prinicple of the least surprise.
Replace all such uses of memblock APIs with the 'align' parameter
explicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES and stop implicit alignment assignment
in the memblock internal allocation functions.
For the case when memblock APIs are used via helper functions, e.g. like
iommu_arena_new_node() in Alpha, the helper functions were detected with
Coccinelle's help and then manually examined and updated where
appropriate.
The direct memblock APIs users were updated using the semantic patch below:

Both functions attempt to allocate memory with specified alignment from a
particular node. If the allocation from that node fails, they both fall
back to allocating from any node in the system.
Usage of native memblock API eliminates the nobootmem translation layer.

Replace bootmem allocator with memblock and enable use of NO_BOOTMEM like
on most other architectures.
Alpha gets the description of the physical memory from the firmware as an
array of memory clusters. Each cluster that is not reserved by the
firmware is added to memblock.memory.
Once the memblock.memory is set up, we reserve the kernel and initrd pages
with memblock reserve.
Since we don't need the bootmem bitmap anymore, the code that finds an
appropriate place is removed.
The conversion does not take care of NUMA support which is marked broken
for more than 10 years now.

Once upon a time it used to have a C part that printed a warning
about unimplemented OSF syscalls. That's what it's been doing
all over the OSF syscall range, while the native Linux syscall
range uses sys_ni_syscall().
With those warnings about unimplemented OSF syscalls gone (circa 2.4),
alpha_ni_syscall() has shrunk to that little bit of asm and the
only reason it hasn't been replaced with sys_ni_syscall() everywhere
is that extra twist needed in case of syscall #0.
Let's keep it only for syscall #0 and replace the rest with sys_ni_syscall.
And use sys_ni_syscall for "number out range" in ptraced-call case, as
we'd been doing for normal codepath since 2.1.86...

Holding uts_sem as a writer while accessing userspace memory allows a

Instead, move data through stack buffers and don't access userspace memory

Pull siginfo updates from Eric Biederman:
"This set of changes close the known issues with setting si_code to an
invalid value, and with not fully initializing struct siginfo. There
remains work to do on nds32, arc, unicore32, powerpc, arm, arm64, ia64
and x86 to get the code that generates siginfo into a simpler and more
maintainable state. Most of that work involves refactoring the signal
handling code and thus careful code review.
Also not included is the work to shrink the in kernel version of
struct siginfo. That depends on getting the number of places that
directly manipulate struct siginfo under control, as it requires the
introduction of struct kernel_siginfo for the in kernel things.
Overall this set of changes looks like it is making good progress, and

memory-barriers.txt has been updated with the following requirement.
"When using writel(), a prior wmb() is not needed to guarantee that the
cache coherent memory writes have completed before writing to the MMIO
region."
Current writeX() and iowriteX() implementations on alpha are not
satisfying this requirement as the barrier is after the register write.
Move mb() in writeX() and iowriteX() functions to guarantee that HW
observes memory changes before performing register operations.

Filling in struct siginfo before calling force_sig_info a tedious and
error prone process, where once in a great while the wrong fields
are filled out, and siginfo has been inconsistently cleared.
Simplify this process by using the helper force_sig_fault. Which
takes as a parameters all of the information it needs, ensures
all of the fiddly bits of filling in struct siginfo are done properly
and then calls force_sig_info.
In short about a 5 line reduction in code for every time force_sig_info
is called, which makes the calling function clearer.

Using an si_code of 0 that aliases with SI_USER is clearly the wrong
thing to do, and causes problems in interesting ways.
For it really is not clear to me if using TRAP_UNK bugcheck or
the default case of gentrap is really the best way to handle
things. There is certainly enough information that that a more
specific si_code could potentially be used. That said TRAP_UNK
is definitely an improvement over 0 as it removes the ambiguiuty
of what si_code of 0 with SIGTRAP means on alpha.
Recent history suggests no actually cares about crazy corner cases of
the kernel behavior like this so I don't expect any regressions from
changing this. However if something does happen this change is easy
to revert.

The newly defined FPE_FLTUNK semantically appears to fit the bill so

Call clear_siginfo to ensure every stack allocated siginfo is properly
initialized before being passed to the signal sending functions.
Note: It is not safe to depend on C initializers to initialize struct
siginfo on the stack because C is allowed to skip holes when
initializing a structure.
The initialization of struct siginfo in tracehook_report_syscall_exit
was moved from the helper user_single_step_siginfo into
tracehook_report_syscall_exit itself, to make it clear that the local
variable siginfo gets fully initialized.
In a few cases the scope of struct siginfo has been reduced to make it
clear that siginfo siginfo is not used on other paths in the function
in which it is declared.
Instances of using memset to initialize siginfo have been replaced
with calls clear_siginfo for clarity.

Setting si_code to 0 is the same as setting si_code to SI_USER. This
is the same si_code as SI_USER. Posix and common sense requires that
SI_USER not be a signal specific si_code. As such this use of 0 for
the si_code is a pretty horribly broken ABI.

Implement the CPU vulnerabilty show functions for meltdown, spectre_v1
and spectre_v2 on Alpha.
Tests on XP1000 (EV67/667MHz) and ES45 (EV68CB/1.25GHz) show them
to be vulnerable to Meltdown and Spectre V1. In the case of
Meltdown I saw a 1 to 2% success rate in reading bytes on the
XP1000 and 50 to 60% success rate on the ES45. (This compares to
99.97% success reported for Intel CPUs.) Report EV6 and later
CPUs as vulnerable.
Tests on PWS600au (EV56/600MHz) for Spectre V1 attack were
unsuccessful (though I did not try particularly hard) so mark EV4
through to EV56 as not vulnerable.

Pull removal of in-kernel calls to syscalls from Dominik Brodowski:
"System calls are interaction points between userspace and the kernel.
Therefore, system call functions such as sys_xyzzy() or
compat_sys_xyzzy() should only be called from userspace via the
syscall table, but not from elsewhere in the kernel.
At least on 64-bit x86, it will likely be a hard requirement from
v4.17 onwards to not call system call functions in the kernel: It is
better to use use a different calling convention for system calls
there, where struct pt_regs is decoded on-the-fly in a syscall wrapper
which then hands processing over to the actual syscall function. This
means that only those parameters which are actually needed for a
specific syscall are passed on during syscall entry, instead of
filling in six CPU registers with random user space content all the
time (which may cause serious trouble down the call chain). Those
x86-specific patches will be pushed through the x86 tree in the near
future.
Moreover, rules on how data may be accessed may differ between kernel
data and user data. This is another reason why calling sys_xyzzy() is
generally a bad idea, and -- at most -- acceptable in arch-specific
code.
This patchset removes all in-kernel calls to syscall functions in the
kernel with the exception of arch/. On top of this, it cleans up the
three places where many syscalls are referenced or prototyped, namely
kernel/sys_ni.c, include/linux/syscalls.h and include/linux/compat.h"

Using this helper allows us to avoid the in-kernel calls to the
sys_mmap_pgoff() syscall. The ksys_ prefix denotes that this function is
meant as a drop-in replacement for the syscall. In particular, it uses the
same calling convention as sys_mmap_pgoff().
This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls.
On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined. For details, see

It used to clear a3, so that signal handling on
return to userland would've passed zero r0 to do_work_pending(),
preventing the syscall restart logics from triggering.
It had been pointless all along, since we only go there
after successful do_execve(). Which does clear regs->r0 on alpha,
preventing the syscall restart logics just fine, no extra help
needed. Good thing, that, since back in 2012 do_work_pending()
has lost the second argument, shifting the registers used to pass
that thing from a3 to a2. Commit that had done that adjusted the
entry.S code accordingly, but missed that one.
As the result, we were left with useless insn in
ret_from_kernel_thread and confusing comment to go with it.
Get rid of both...

Mark noticed that the change to sibling_list changed some iteration
semantics; because previously we used group_list as list entry,
sibling events would always have an empty sibling_list.
But because we now use sibling_list for both list head and list entry,
siblings will report as having siblings.
Fix this with a custom for_each_sibling_event() iterator.
