Commit 2a037f310bab ("MIPS: VDSO: Fix build error") tries to fix a build
error seen with binutils 2.24 and earlier. However, the fix does not work,
and again results in the already known build errors if the kernel is built
with an earlier version of binutils.

Commit 5b48bb8506c5 ("openvswitch: Fix helper reference leak") fixed a
reference leak on helper objects, but inadvertently introduced a leak on
the ct template.
Previously, ct_info.ct->general.use was initialized to 0 by
nf_ct_tmpl_alloc() and only incremented when ovs_ct_copy_action()
returned successful. If an error occurred while adding the helper or
adding the action to the actions buffer, the __ovs_ct_free_action()
cleanup would use nf_ct_put() to free the entry; However, this relies on
atomic_dec_and_test(ct_info.ct->general.use). This reference must be
incremented first, or nf_ct_put() will never free it.
Fix the issue by acquiring a reference to the template immediately after
allocation.

dev->nr_luns reports the total number of luns available in a device
while dev->luns_per_chnl is the number of luns per channel.
When multiple channels are available, the offset is calculated from a
channel and lun id into a linear array. As it multiplies with
the total number of luns, we go out of bound when channel id > 0 and
causes the kernel to panic when we read a protected kernel memory area.

Then users can remap the keycode from userspace. If without the remap,
the input device will pass KEY_MICMUTE to userspace, but in X11 layer,
it uses KEY_F20 rather than KEY_MICMUTE for XF86AudioMicMute. After
adding the keycode map, users can remap the keycode to any value users

The Lenovo ThinkCenter AIO uses Line2 (NID 0x1b) to implement the
micmute hotkey, here we register an input device and use Line2 unsol
event to collect the hotkey pressing or releasing.
In the meanwhile, the micmute led is controlled by GPIO2, so we
use an existing function alc_fixup_gpio_mic_mute_hook() to control
the led.
[Hui: And there are two places to register the input device, to make
the code simple and clean, move the two same code sections into a

"Three late 4.4-rc fixes.
The first two were very small in terms of number of lines, the third
is more lines of change than I like this late in the cycle, but there
are positive test results from Avagotech and from my own test setup
with the target hardware, and given the problem was a 100% failure
case, I sent it through.
- A previous patch updated the mlx4 driver to use vmalloc when there
was not enough memory to get a contiguous region large enough for
our needs, so we need kvfree() whenever we free that item. We
missed one place, so fix that now.
- A previous patch added code to match incoming packets against a
specific device, but failed to compensate for devices that have
both InfiniBand and Ethernet ports. Fix that.
- Under certain vlan conditions, the ocrdma driver would fail to
bring up any vlan interfaces and would print out a circular locking
failure. Fix that"

Recently Dough Ledford reported a deadlock happening
between ocrdma-load sequence and NetworkManager service
issueing "open" on be2net interface.
The deadlock happens when any be2net hook (e.g. open/close) is called
in parallel to insmod ocrdma.ko.
A. be2net is sending administrative open/close event to ocrdma holding
device_list_mutex. It does this from ndo_open/ndo_stop hooks of be2net.
So sequence of locks is rtnl_lock---> device_list lock
B. When new ocrdma roce device gets registered, infiniband stack now
takes rtnl_lock in ib_register_device() in GID initialization routines.
So sequence of locks in this path is device_list lock ---> rtnl_lock.
This improper locking sequence causes deadlock.
In order to resolve the above deadlock condition, ocrdma intorduced a
patch to stop listening to administrative open/close events generated from
be2net driver. It now depends on link-state-change async-event generated from
CNA. This change leaves behind dead code which used to generate administrative
open/close events. This patch cleans-up all that dead code from be2net.

With this patch we stop using administrative open and close events
injected by be2net driver. These events were used to dispatch PORT_ACTIVE
and PORT_ERROR events to the IB-stack. This patch implements a logic
to receive async-link-events generated from CNA whenever link-state-change
is detected. Now on, these async-events will be used to dispatch
PORT_ACTIVE and PORT_ERROR events to IB-stack.
Depending on async-events from CNA removes the need to hold device-list-mutex
and thus breaks the busy-wait scenario.

Doug reports that the equivalent page allocator on 32-bit ARM exhibits
particularly pathalogical behaviour under memory pressure when
fragmentation is high, where allocating a 4MB buffer takes tens of
seconds and the number of calls to alloc_pages() is over 9000![1]
We can drastically improve that situation without losing the other
benefits of high-order allocations when they would succeed, by assuming
memory pressure is relatively constant over the course of an allocation,
and not retrying allocations at orders we know to have failed before.
This way, the best-case behaviour remains unchanged, and in the worst
case we should see at most a dozen or so (MAX_ORDER - 1) failed attempts
before falling back to single pages for the remainder of the buffer.

Pull ftrace/recordmcount fix from Steven Rostedt:
"Russell King was reporting lots of warnings when he compiled his
kernel with ftrace enabled. With some investigation it was discovered
that it was his compile setup. He was using ccache with hard links,
which allowed recordmcount to process the same .o twice. When this
happens, recordmcount will detect that it was already done and give a
warning about it.
Russell fixed this by having recordmcount detect that the object file
has more than one hard link, and if it does, it unlinks the object
file after it maps it and processes then. This appears to fix the
issue.
As you did not like the fact that recordmcount modified the file in
place and thought that it should do the modifications in memory and
then write it out to disk and move it over the old file to prevent
other more subtle issues like the one above, a second patch is added
on top of Russell's to do just that. Luckily the original code had
write and lseek wrappers that I was able to modify to not do inplace
writes, but simply keep track of the changes made in memory. When a
write is made, a "update" flag is set, and at the end of processing,
if the update is set, then it writes the file with changes out to a
new file, and then renames it over the original one.
The file descriptor is still passed to the write and lseek wrappers
because removing that would cause the change to be more intrusive.
That can be removed in a follow up cleanup patch that can wait till
the next merge window"

Short story: Exception handlers used by some copy_to_user() and
copy_from_user() functions do not diligently clean up floating point
register usage, and this can result in a user process seeing invalid
values in floating point registers. This sometimes makes the process
fail.
Long story: Several cpu-specific (NG4, NG2, U1, U3) memcpy functions
use floating point registers and VIS alignaddr/faligndata to
accelerate data copying when source and dest addresses don't align
well. Linux uses a lazy scheme for saving floating point registers; It
is not done upon entering the kernel since it's a very expensive
operation. Rather, it is done only when needed. If the kernel ends up
not using FP regs during the course of some trap or system call, then
it can return to user space without saving or restoring them.
The various memcpy functions begin their FP code with VISEntry (or a
variation thereof), which saves the FP regs. They conclude their FP
code with VISExit (or a variation) which essentially marks the FP regs
"clean", ie, they contain no unsaved values. fprs.FPRS_FEF is turned
off so that a lazy restore will be triggered when/if the user process
accesses floating point regs again.
The bug is that the user copy variants of memcpy, copy_from_user() and
copy_to_user(), employ an exception handling mechanism to detect faults
when accessing user space addresses, and when this handler is invoked,
an immediate return from the function is forced, and VISExit is not
executed, thus leaving the fprs register in an indeterminate state,
but often with fprs.FPRS_FEF set and one or more dirty bits. This
results in a return to user space with invalid values in the FP regs,
and since fprs.FPRS_FEF is on, no lazy restore occurs.
This bug affects copy_to_user() and copy_from_user() for NG4, NG2,
U3, and U1. All are fixed by using a new exception handler for those
loads and stores that are done during the time between VISEnter and
VISExit.
n.b. In NG4memcpy, the problematic code can be triggered by a copy
size greater than 128 bytes and an unaligned source address. This bug
is known to be the cause of random user process memory corruptions
while perf is running with the callgraph option (ie, perf record -g).
This occurs because perf uses copy_from_user() to read user stacks,
and may fault when it follows a stack frame pointer off to an
invalid page. Validation checks on the stack address just obscure
the underlying problem.

There have been several reports of random processes being killed with
a bus error or segfault during userspace stack walking in perf. One
of the root causes of this problem is an asynchronous modification to
thread_info fault_address and fault_code, which stems from a perf
counter interrupt arriving during kernel processing of a "benign"
fault, such as a TSB miss. Since perf_callchain_user() invokes
copy_from_user() to read user stacks, a fault is not only possible,
but probable. Validity checks on the stack address merely cover up the
problem and reduce its frequency.
The solution here is to save and restore fault_address and fault_code
in perf_callchain_user() so that the benign fault handler is not
disturbed by a perf interrupt.

When an interrupt (such as a perf counter interrupt) is delivered
while executing in user space, the trap entry code puts ASI_AIUS in
%asi so that copy_from_user() and copy_to_user() will access the
correct memory. But if a perf counter interrupt is delivered while the
cpu is already executing in kernel space, then the trap entry code
will put ASI_P in %asi, and this will prevent copy_from_user() from
reading any useful stack data in either of the perf_callchain_user_X
functions, and thus no user callgraph data will be collected for this
sample period. An additional problem is that a fault is guaranteed
to occur, and though it will be silently covered up, it wastes time
and could perturb state.
In perf_callchain_user(), we ensure that %asi contains ASI_AIUS
because we know for a fact that the subsequent calls to
copy_from_user() are intended to read the user's stack.

Commit 28a1f53 delays setting %pil to avoid potential
hardirq stack overflow in the common rtrap_irq path.
Setting %pil also needs to be delayed in the rtrap_nmi
path for the same reason.

Add ADI (Application Data Integrity) capability to cpu capabilities list.
ADI capability allows virtual addresses to be encoded with a tag in
bits 63-60. This tag serves as an access control key for the regions
of virtual address with ADI enabled and a key set on them. Hypervisor
encodes this capability as "adp" in "hwcap-list" property in machine

NCM buffer sizes are negotiated with the device independently of
the network device MTU. The RX buffers are allocated by the
usbnet framework based on the rx_urb_size value set by cdc_ncm. A
single RX buffer can hold a number of MTU sized packets.
The default usbnet change_mtu ndo only modifies rx_urb_size if it
is equal to hard_mtu. And the cdc_ncm driver will set rx_urb_size
and hard_mtu independently of each other, based on dwNtbInMaxSize
and dwNtbOutMaxSize respectively. It was therefore assumed that
usbnet_change_mtu() would never touch rx_urb_size. This failed to
consider the case where dwNtbInMaxSize and dwNtbOutMaxSize happens
to be equal.
Fix by implementing an NCM specific change_mtu ndo, modifying the
netdev MTU without touching the buffer size settings.

Currently the needed_headroom field for the geneve device is left
to the default value.
This patch set it to space required for basic geneve encapsulation,
so that we can avoid the skb head re-allocation on xmit.
This give a 6% speedup for unsegment traffic on geneve tunnel.
v1 -> v2:
- add ETH_HLEN for the lower device to the needed headroom

Marc Haber reported we don't honor interface indexes when we receive link
local router addresses in router advertisements. Luckily the non-strict
version of ipv6_chk_addr already does the correct job here, so we can
simply use it to lighten the checks and use those addresses by default
without any configuration change.
