This patch extends save_fp_registers() and restore_fp_registers() to use
PTRACE_GETREGSET and PTRACE_SETREGSET with the XSTATE note type, adding
support for new processor state extensions between context switches.
When the new ptrace requests are unavailable, it falls back to the old
PTRACE_GETFPREGS and PTRACE_SETFPREGS methods, which have been renamed to
save_i387_registers() and restore_i387_registers().
Now these functions expect *fp_regs to have the space of an _xstate struct.
Thus, this also makes ptrace in UML responde to PTRACE_GETFPREGS/_SETFPREG
requests with a user_i387_struct (thus independent from HOST_FP_SIZE), and
by calling save_i387_registers() and restore_i387_registers() instead of
the extended save_fp_registers() and restore_fp_registers() functions.

Commit 16da306849d0 ("um: kill pfn_t") introduced a compile warning for
defconfig (SUBARCH=i386):
arch/um/kernel/skas/mmu.c:38:206:
warning: right shift count >= width of type [-Wshift-count-overflow]
Aforementioned patch changes the definition of the phys_to_pfn() macro
from
((pfn_t) ((p) >> PAGE_SHIFT))
to
((p) >> PAGE_SHIFT)
This effectively changes the phys_to_pfn() expansion's type from
unsigned long long to unsigned long.
Through the callchain init_stub_pte() => mk_pte(), the expansion of
phys_to_pfn() is (indirectly) fed into the 'phys' argument of the
pte_set_val(pte, phys, prot) macro, eventually leading to
(pte).pte_high = (phys) >> 32;
This results in the warning from above.
Since UML only deals with 32 bit addresses, the upper 32 bits from
'phys' used to be always zero anyway. Also, all page protection flags
defined by UML don't use any bits beyond bit 9. Since the contents of a
PTE are defined within architecture scope only, the ->pte_high member
can be safely removed.
Remove the ->pte_high member from struct pte_t.
Rename ->pte_low to ->pte.
Adapt the pte helper macros in arch/um/include/asm/page.h.
Noteworthy is the pte_copy() macro where a smp_wmb() gets dropped. This
write barrier doesn't seem to be paired with any read barrier though and
thus, was useless anyway.

This brings SECCOMP_MODE_STRICT and SECCOMP_MODE_FILTER support through
prctl(2) and seccomp(2) to User-mode Linux for i386 and x86_64
subarchitectures.
secure_computing() is called first in handle_syscall() so that the
syscall emulation will be aborted quickly if matching a seccomp rule.

Add subarchitecture-independent implementation of asm-generic/syscall.h
allowing access to user system call parameters and results:
* syscall_get_nr()
* syscall_rollback()
* syscall_get_error()
* syscall_get_return_value()
* syscall_set_return_value()
* syscall_get_arguments()
* syscall_set_arguments()
* syscall_get_arch() provided by arch/x86/um/asm/syscall.h
This provides the necessary syscall helpers needed by
HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER plus syscall_get_error().

* PTRACE_SETREGS can't set the orig_ax value (erased by initial value)
Get rid of the now useless and error-prone get_syscall().

Software IRQ processing in generic architectures assumes that the
exit out of hard IRQ may have re-enabled interrupts (some
architectures may have an implicit EOI). It presumes them enabled
and toggles the flags once more just in case unless this is turned
off in the architecture specific hardirq.h by setting
__ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED
This patch adds this to UML where due to the way IRQs are handled
it is an optimization (it works fine without it too).

UML is using an obsolete itimer call for
all timers and "polls" for kernel space timer firing
in its userspace portion resulting in a long list
of bugs and incorrect behaviour(s). It also uses
ITIMER_VIRTUAL for its timer which results in the
timer being dependent on it running and the cpu
load.
This patch fixes this by moving to posix high resolution
timers firing off CLOCK_MONOTONIC and relaying the timer
correctly to the UML userspace.
Fixes:
- crashes when hosts suspends/resumes
- broken userspace timers - effecive ~40Hz instead
of what they should be. Note - this modifies skas behavior
by no longer setting an itimer per clone(). Timer events
are relayed instead.
- kernel network packet scheduling disciplines
- tcp behaviour especially under load
- various timer related corner cases
Finally, overall responsiveness of userspace is better.

Pull strscpy string copy function implementation from Chris Metcalf.
Chris sent this during the merge window, but I waffled back and forth on
the pull request, which is why it's going in only now.
The new "strscpy()" function is definitely easier to use and more secure
than either strncpy() or strlcpy(), both of which are horrible nasty
interfaces that have serious and irredeemable problems.
strncpy() has a useless return value, and doesn't NUL-terminate an
overlong result. To make matters worse, it pads a short result with
zeroes, which is a performance disaster if you have big buffers.
strlcpy(), by contrast, is a mis-designed "fix" for strlcpy(), lacking
the insane NUL padding, but having a differently broken return value
which returns the original length of the source string. Which means
that it will read characters past the count from the source buffer, and
you have to trust the source to be properly terminated. It also makes
error handling fragile, since the test for overflow is unnecessarily
subtle.
strscpy() avoids both these problems, guaranteeing the NUL termination
(but not excessive padding) if the destination size wasn't zero, and
making the overflow condition very obvious by returning -E2BIG. It also
doesn't read past the size of the source, and can thus be used for
untrusted source data too.
So why did I waffle about this for so long?
Every time we introduce a new-and-improved interface, people start doing
these interminable series of trivial conversion patches.
And every time that happens, somebody does some silly mistake, and the
conversion patch to the improved interface actually makes things worse.
Because the patch is mindnumbing and trivial, nobody has the attention
span to look at it carefully, and it's usually done over large swatches
of source code which means that not every conversion gets tested.
So I'm pulling the strscpy() support because it *is* a better interface.
But I will refuse to pull mindless conversion patches. Use this in
places where it makes sense, but don't do trivial patches to fix things
that aren't actually known to be broken.

doesn't need to define mm hooks.

of a generic header file included via each per architecture

Once x86 exports its do_signal(), the prototypes will clash.
Fix the clash and also improve the code a bit: remove the
unnecessary kern_do_signal() indirection. This allows
interrupt_end() to share the 'regs' parameter calculation.
Also remove the unused return code to match x86.

CRIU is recreating the process memory layout by remapping the checkpointee
memory area on top of the current process (criu). This includes remapping
the vDSO to the place it has at checkpoint time.
However some architectures like powerpc are keeping a reference to the
vDSO base address to build the signal return stack frame by calling the
vDSO sigreturn service. So once the vDSO has been moved, this reference
is no more valid and the signal frame built later are not usable.
This patch serie is introducing a new mm hook framework, and a new
arch_remap hook which is called when mremap is done and the mm lock still
hold. The next patch is adding the vDSO remap and unmap tracking to the
powerpc architecture.
This patch (of 3):
This patch introduces a new set of header file to manage mm hooks:
- per architecture empty header file (arch/x/include/asm/mm-arch-hooks.h)
- a generic header (include/linux/mm-arch-hooks.h)
The architecture which need to overwrite a hook as to redefine it in its
header file, while architecture which doesn't need have nothing to do.
The default hooks are defined in the generic header and are used in the
case the architecture is not defining it.
In a next step, mm hooks defined in include/asm-generic/mm_hooks.h should
be moved here.

TT (tracing thread) and SKAS3/4 (separated kernel address space).
TT was known to be insecure and got removed a long time ago.
SKAS3/4 required a few (3 or 4) patches on the host side which never went

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.
Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.
Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.
It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

As there are now no remaining users of arch_fast_hash(), lets kill
it entirely.
This basically reverts commit 71ae8aac3e19 ("lib: introduce arch
optimized hash library") and follow-up work, that is f.e., commit
237217546d44 ("lib: hash: follow-up fixups for arch hash"),
commit e3fec2f74f7f ("lib: Add missing arch generic-y entries for
asm-generic/hash.h") and last but not least commit 6a02652df511
("perf tools: Fix include for non x86 architectures").

The x86 MPX patch set calls arch_unmap() and arch_bprm_mm_init()
from fs/exec.c, so we need at least a stub for them in all
architectures. They are only called under an #ifdef for
CONFIG_MMU=y, so we can at least restict this to architectures
with MMU support.
blackfin/c6x have no MMU support, so do not call arch_unmap().
They also do not include mm_hooks.h or mmu_context.h at all and
do not need to be touched.
s390, um and unicore32 do not use asm-generic/mm_hooks.h, so got
their own arch_unmap() versions. (I also moved um's
arch_dup_mmap() to be closer to the other mm_hooks.h functions).
xtensa only includes mm_hooks when MMU=y, which should be fine
since arch_unmap() is called only from MMU=y code.
For the rest, we use the stub copies of these functions in
asm-generic/mm_hook.h.
I cross compiled defconfigs for cris (to check NOMMU) and s390
to make sure that this works. I also checked a 64-bit build
of UML and all my normal x86 builds including PARAVIRT on and
off.

1) uml kernel bootmem managed through bootmem_data->node_bootmem_map,
not the struct page array, so the array is unnecessary.
2) the bootmem struct page array has been pointed by a *local* pointer,
struct page *map, in init_maps function. The array can be accessed only
in init_maps's scope. As a result, uml kernel wastes about 1% of total
memory.

The nohz full code needs irq work to trigger its own interrupt so that
the subsystem can work even when the tick is stopped.
Lets introduce arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() that archs can override to
tell about their support for this ability.

Pull arch signal handling cleanup from Richard Weinberger:
"This patch series moves all remaining archs to the get_signal(),
signal_setup_done() and sigsp() functions.
Currently these archs use open coded variants of the said functions.
Further, unused parameters get removed from get_signal_to_deliver(),
tracehook_signal_handler() and signal_delivered().
At the end of the day we save around 500 lines of code."

The core mm code will provide a default gate area based on
FIXADDR_USER_START and FIXADDR_USER_END if
!defined(__HAVE_ARCH_GATE_AREA) && defined(AT_SYSINFO_EHDR).
This default is only useful for ia64. arm64, ppc, s390, sh, tile, 64-bit
UML, and x86_32 have their own code just to disable it. arm, 32-bit UML,
and x86_64 have gate areas, but they have their own implementations.
This gets rid of the default and moves the code into ia64.
This should save some code on architectures without a gate area: it's now
possible to inline the gate_area functions in the default case.

use that instead. At same time, remove the header files are are now

The mmu-gather operation 'tlb_flush_mmu()' has done two things: the
actual tlb flush operation, and the batched freeing of the pages that
the TLB entries pointed at.
This splits the operation into separate phases, so that the forced
batched flushing done by zap_pte_range() can now do the actual TLB flush
while still holding the page table lock, but delay the batched freeing
of all the pages to after the lock has been dropped.
This in turn allows us to avoid a race condition between
set_page_dirty() (as called by zap_pte_range() when it finds a dirty
shared memory pte) and page_mkclean(): because we now flush all the
dirty page data from the TLB's while holding the pte lock,
page_mkclean() will be held up walking the (recently cleaned) page
tables until after the TLB entries have been flushed from all CPU's.

The reverse case of this race (you must msync before read) is
well known. This is the not so common one.
It can be triggered only on systems which do a lot of task
switching and only at UML startup. If you are starting 200+ UMLs
~ 0.5% will always die without this fix.
