Job submission currently relies on the fact that struct drm_tegra_reloc
and struct host1x_reloc are the same size and uses a simple call to the
copy_from_user() function to copy them to kernel space. This causes the
handle to be stored in the buffer object field, which then needs a cast
to a 32 bit integer to resolve it to a proper buffer object pointer and
store it back in the buffer object field.
On 64-bit architectures that will no longer work, since pointers are 64
bits wide whereas handles will remain 32 bits. This causes the sizes of
both structures to because different and copying will no longer work.
Fix this by adding a new function, host1x_reloc_get_user(), that copies
the structures field by field.
While at it, use substructures for the command and target buffers in
struct host1x_reloc for better readability. Also use unsized types to
make it more obvious that this isn't part of userspace ABI.

The access cache is used during RCU-walk path lookups, so it is best
to avoid locking if possible as taking a lock kills concurrency.
The rbtree is not rcu-safe and cannot easily be made so.
Instead we simply check the last (i.e. most recent) entry on the LRU
list. If this doesn't match, then we return -ECHILD and retry in
lock/refcount mode.
This requires freeing the nfs_access_entry struct with rcu, and
requires using rcu access primatives when adding entries to the lru, and
when examining the last entry.
Calling put_rpccred before kfree_rcu looks a bit odd, but as
put_rpccred already provides rcu protection, we know that the cred will
not actually be freed until the next grace period, so any concurrent
access will be safe.
This patch provides about 5% performance improvement on a stat-heavy
synthetic work load with 4 threads on a 2-core CPU.

This requires nfs_check_verifier to take an rcu_walk flag, and requires
an rcu version of nfs_revalidate_inode which returns -ECHILD rather
than making an RPC call.
With this, nfs_lookup_revalidate can call nfs_neg_need_reval in
RCU-walk mode.
We can also move the LOOKUP_RCU check past the nfs_check_verifier()
call in nfs_lookup_revalidate.
If RCU_WALK prevents nfs_check_verifier or nfs_neg_need_reval from
doing a full check, they return a status indicating that a revalidation
is required. As this revalidation will not be possible in RCU_WALK
mode, -ECHILD will ultimately be returned, which is the desired result.

The new flag RPCAUTH_LOOKUP_RCU to credential lookup avoids locking,
does not take a reference on the returned credential, and returns
-ECHILD if a simple lookup was not possible.
The returned value can only be used within an rcu_read_lock protected
region.
The main user of this is the new rpc_lookup_cred_nonblock() which
returns a pointer to the current credential which is only rcu-safe (no
ref-count held), and might return -ECHILD if allocation was required.

Generic implementation of a resizable, scalable, concurrent hash table
based on [0]. The implementation supports both, fixed size keys specified
via an offset and length, or arbitrary keys via own hash and compare
functions.
Lookups are lockless and protected as RCU read side critical sections.
Automatic growing/shrinking based on user configurable watermarks is
available while allowing concurrent lookups to take place.
Objects to be hashed must include a struct rhash_head. The reason for not
using the existing struct hlist_head is that the expansion and shrinking
will have two buckets point to a single entry which would lead in obscure
reverse chaining behaviour.
Code includes a boot selftest if CONFIG_TEST_RHASHTABLE is defined.

clean up names related to socket filtering and bpf in the following way:
- everything that deals with sockets keeps 'sk_*' prefix
- everything that is pure BPF is changed to 'bpf_*' prefix
split 'struct sk_filter' into
struct sk_filter {
atomic_t refcnt;
struct rcu_head rcu;
struct bpf_prog *prog;
};
and
struct bpf_prog {
u32 jited:1,
len:31;
struct sock_fprog_kern *orig_prog;
unsigned int (*bpf_func)(const struct sk_buff *skb,
const struct bpf_insn *filter);
union {
struct sock_filter insns[0];
struct bpf_insn insnsi[0];
struct work_struct work;
};
};
so that 'struct bpf_prog' can be used independent of sockets and cleans up
'unattached' bpf use cases
split SK_RUN_FILTER macro into:
SK_RUN_FILTER to be used with 'struct sk_filter *' and
BPF_PROG_RUN to be used with 'struct bpf_prog *'
__sk_filter_release(struct sk_filter *) gains
__bpf_prog_release(struct bpf_prog *) helper function
also perform related renames for the functions that work
with 'struct bpf_prog *', since they're on the same lines:
sk_filter_size -> bpf_prog_size
sk_filter_select_runtime -> bpf_prog_select_runtime
sk_filter_free -> bpf_prog_free
sk_unattached_filter_create -> bpf_prog_create
sk_unattached_filter_destroy -> bpf_prog_destroy
sk_store_orig_filter -> bpf_prog_store_orig_filter
sk_release_orig_filter -> bpf_release_orig_filter
__sk_migrate_filter -> bpf_migrate_filter
__sk_prepare_filter -> bpf_prepare_filter
API for attaching classic BPF to a socket stays the same:
sk_attach_filter(prog, struct sock *)/sk_detach_filter(struct sock *)
and SK_RUN_FILTER(struct sk_filter *, ctx) to execute a program
which is used by sockets, tun, af_packet
API for 'unattached' BPF programs becomes:
bpf_prog_create(struct bpf_prog **)/bpf_prog_destroy(struct bpf_prog *)

which is used by isdn, ppp, team, seccomp, ptp, xt_bpf, cls_bpf, test_bpf

This patch adds a usb quirk to support devices with interupt endpoints
and bInterval values expressed as microframes. The quirk causes the
parse endpoint function to modify the reported bInterval to a standards
conforming value.
There is currently code in the endpoint parser that checks for
bIntervals that are outside of the valid range (1-16 for USB 2+ high
speed and super speed interupt endpoints). In this case, the code assumes
the bInterval is being reported in 1ms frames. As well, the correction
is only applied if the original bInterval value is out of the 1-16 range.
With this quirk applied to the device, the bInterval will be
accurately adjusted from microframes to an exponent.

Add few helper functions to support a mechanism of getting an MPT,
modifying it and updating the HCA with the modified object.
The code takes 2 paths, one for directly changing the MPT (and
sometimes its related MTTs) and another one which queries the MPT and
updates the HCA via fw command SW2HW_MPT. The first path is used in
native mode; the second path is slower and is used only in SRIOV.

While invesgiating the issue where in "mount --bind -oremount,ro ..."
would result in later "mount --bind -oremount,rw" succeeding even if
the mount started off locked I realized that there are several
additional mount flags that should be locked and are not.
In particular MNT_NOSUID, MNT_NODEV, MNT_NOEXEC, and the atime
flags in addition to MNT_READONLY should all be locked. These
flags are all per superblock, can all be changed with MS_BIND,
and should not be changable if set by a more privileged user.
The following additions to the current logic are added in this patch.
- nosuid may not be clearable by a less privileged user.
- nodev may not be clearable by a less privielged user.
- noexec may not be clearable by a less privileged user.
- atime flags may not be changeable by a less privileged user.
The logic with atime is that always setting atime on access is a
global policy and backup software and auditing software could break if
atime bits are not updated (when they are configured to be updated),
and serious performance degradation could result (DOS attack) if atime
updates happen when they have been explicitly disabled. Therefore an
unprivileged user should not be able to mess with the atime bits set
by a more privileged user.
The additional restrictions are implemented with the addition of
MNT_LOCK_NOSUID, MNT_LOCK_NODEV, MNT_LOCK_NOEXEC, and MNT_LOCK_ATIME
mnt flags.
Taken together these changes and the fixes for MNT_LOCK_READONLY
should make it safe for an unprivileged user to create a user
namespace and to call "mount --bind -o remount,... ..." without
the danger of mount flags being changed maliciously.

Kenton Varda <[email protected]> discovered that by remounting a
read-only bind mount read-only in a user namespace the
MNT_LOCK_READONLY bit would be cleared, allowing an unprivileged user
to the remount a read-only mount read-write.
Correct this by replacing the mask of mount flags to preserve
with a mask of mount flags that may be changed, and preserve
all others. This ensures that any future bugs with this mask and
remount will fail in an easy to detect way where new mount flags
simply won't change.

This patch adds and modifies code to support multiple Multicast and Unicast
Synopsys MAC filter configurations. The default configuration is defined to
support legacy driver behavior, which is 64 Multicast bins. The Unicast
filter code previously assumed all controllers support 32 or 16 Unicast
addresses based on controller version number, but this has been corrected
to support a default of 1 Unicast address. The filter configuration may
be specified through the devicetree using a Synopsys specific device tree
entry. This information was verified with Synopsys through
Synopsys Support Case #8000684337 and shared with the maintainer.

We don't have any good way to figure out what kinds of flushes
are being attempted. Right now, we can try to use the vm
counters, but those only tell us what we actually did with the
hardware (one-by-one vs full) and don't tell us what was actually
_requested_.
This allows us to select out "interesting" TLB flushes that we
might want to optimize (like the ranged ones) and ignore the ones
that we have very little control over (the ones at context
switch).

libphy was originally written assuming all phy devices support clause 45
access extensions to the mmd registers through the indirection registers
located within the first 16 phy registers. This assumption is not true
in all cases, and one specific example is the Micrel ksz9021 10/100/1000
Mbps phy. Using the stmmac driver, accessing the mmd registers to query
and configure energy efficient Ethernet (EEE) features yielded unexpected
behavior.
This patch adds mmd access functions to the phy driver that can be
overriden by the phy specific driver if the phy does not support this
mechanism or uses it's own non-standard access mechanism. By default,
the IEEE Compatible clause 45 access mechanism described in clause 22
is used. With this patch, EEE query/configure functions as expected
using the stmmac and the Micrel ksz9021 phy.

PG_head_mask was added into VMCOREINFO to filter huge pages in b3acc56bfe1
("kexec: save PG_head_mask in VMCOREINFO"), but makedumpfile still need
another symbol to filter *hugetlbfs* pages.
If a user hope to filter user pages, makedumpfile tries to exclude them by
checking the condition whether the page is anonymous, but hugetlbfs pages
aren't anonymous while they also be user pages.
We know it's possible to detect them in the same way as PageHuge(),
so we need the start address of free_huge_page():
int PageHuge(struct page *page)
{
if (!PageCompound(page))
return 0;
page = compound_head(page);
return get_compound_page_dtor(page) == free_huge_page;
}

In preparation for a new mlx5 device which is VPI (i.e., ports can be
either IB or ETH), move the pci device functionality from mlx5_ib
to mlx5_core.
This involves the following changes:
1. Move mlx5_core_dev struct out of mlx5_ib_dev. mlx5_core_dev
is now an independent structure maintained by mlx5_core.
mlx5_ib_dev now has a pointer to that struct.
This requires changing a lot of places where the core_dev
struct was accessed via mlx5_ib_dev (now, this needs to
be a pointer dereference).
2. All PCI initializations are now done in mlx5_core. Thus,
it is now mlx5_core which does pci_register_device (and not
mlx5_ib, as was previously).
3. mlx5_ib now registers itself with mlx5_core as an "interface"
driver. This is very similar to the mechanism employed for
the mlx4 (ConnectX) driver. Once the HCA is initialized
(by mlx5_core), it invokes the interface drivers to do
their initializations.
4. There is a new event handler which the core registers:
mlx5_core_event(). This event handler invokes the
event handlers registered by the interfaces.

APEI is currently implemented so that it depends on x86 hardware.
The primary dependency is that GHES uses the x86 NMI for hardware
error notification and MCE for memory error handling. These patches
remove that dependency.
Other APEI features such as error reporting via external IRQ, error
serialization, or error injection, do not require changes to use them
on non-x86 architectures.
The following patch set eliminates the APEI Kconfig x86 dependency
by making these changes:
- treat NMI notification as GHES architecture - HAVE_ACPI_APEI_NMI
- group and wrap around #ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_ACPI_APEI_NMI code which
is used only for NMI path
- identify architectural boxes and abstract it accordingly (tlb flush and MCE)
- rework ioremap for both IRQ and NMI context
NMI code is kept in ghes.c file since NMI and IRQ context are tightly coupled.
Note, these patches introduce no functional changes for x86. The NMI notification
feature is hard selected for x86. Architectures that want to use this
feature should also provide NMI code infrastructure.

The synchronous syncrhonize_rcu in switch_task_namespaces makes setns
a sufficiently expensive system call that people have complained.
Upon inspect nsproxy no longer needs rcu protection for remote reads.
remote reads are rare. So optimize for same process reads and write
by switching using rask_lock instead.
This yields a simpler to understand lock, and a faster setns system call.
In particular this fixes a performance regression observed

This is effectively a revert of Pavel Emelyanov's commit
cf7b708c8d1d7a27736771bcf4c457b332b0f818 Make access to task's nsproxy lighter

do_notify_parent uses task_active_pid_ns(parent) instead of
parent->nsproxy.
