Do not load one entry beyond the end of the syscall table when the
syscall number of a traced process equals to __NR_Linux_syscalls.
Similar bug with regular processes was fixed by commit 3bb457af4fa8
("[PARISC] Fix bug when syscall nr is __NR_Linux_syscalls").
This bug was found by strace test suite.

The existing implementation of thread__resolve_callchain, under certain
circumstances, can assemble callchain entries in the incorrect order.
The callchain entries are resolved incorrectly for a sample when all of
the following conditions are met:
1. callchain_param.order is set to ORDER_CALLER
2. thread__resolve_callchain_sample is able to resolve callchain entries
for the sample.
3. unwind__get_entries is also able to resolve callchain entries for the
sample.
The fix is accomplished by reversing the order in which
thread__resolve_callchain_sample and unwind__get_entries are called when
callchain_param.order is set to ORDER_CALLER.
Unwind specific code from thread__resolve_callchain is also moved into a
new static function to improve readability of the fix.
How to Reproduce the Existing Bug:
Modifying perf script to print call trees in the opposite order or
applying the remaining patches from this series and comparing the
results output from export-to-postgtresql.py are the easiest ways to see
the bug, however it can still be seen in current builds using perf
report.
Here is how i can reproduce the bug using perf report:
# perf record --call-graph=dwarf stress -c 1 -t 5
when i run this command:
# perf report --call-graph=flat,0,0,callee
This callchain, containing kernel (handle_irq_event, etc) and userspace
samples (__libc_start_main, etc) is contained in the output, which looks
correct (callee order):
gen8_irq_handler
handle_irq_event_percpu
handle_irq_event
handle_edge_irq
handle_irq
do_IRQ
ret_from_intr
__random
rand
0x558f2a04dded
0x558f2a04c774
__libc_start_main
0x558f2a04dcd9
Now run this command using caller order:
# perf report --call-graph=flat,0,0,caller
It is expected to see the exact reverse of the above when using caller
order (with "0x558f2a04dcd9" at the top and "gen8_irq_handler" at the
bottom) in the output, but it is nowhere to be found.
instead you see this:
ret_from_intr
do_IRQ
handle_irq
handle_edge_irq
handle_irq_event
handle_irq_event_percpu
gen8_irq_handler
0x558f2a04dcd9
__libc_start_main
0x558f2a04c774
0x558f2a04dded
rand
__random
Notice how internally the kernel symbols are reversed and the user space
symbols are reversed, but the kernel symbols still appear above the user
space symbols.
if this patch is applied and perf script is re-run, you will see the
expected output (with "0x558f2a04dcd9" at the top and "gen8_irq_handler"
at the bottom):
0x558f2a04dcd9
__libc_start_main
0x558f2a04c774
0x558f2a04dded
rand
__random
ret_from_intr
do_IRQ
handle_irq
handle_edge_irq
handle_irq_event
handle_irq_event_percpu
gen8_irq_handler

The test to check if the arg format had been read from the
syscall:sys_enter_name/format file was looking at the list of non-commom
fields, and if that is empty, it would think it had failed to read it,
because it doesn't exist, for instance, for the clone() syscall.
So instead before dumping the raw syscall args list check
IS_ERR(sc->tp_format), if that is true, then an attempt was made to read
the format file and failed, in which case dump the raw arg list values.

Currently we read the tsc radio: ratio = (MSR_PLATFORM_INFO >> 8) & 0x1f;
Thus we get bit 8-12 of MSR_PLATFORM_INFO, however according to the SDM
(35.5), the ratio bits are bit 8-15.
Ignoring the upper bits can result in an incorrect tsc ratio, which causes the
TSC calibration and the Local APIC timer frequency to be incorrect.
Fix this problem by masking 0xff instead.

get_bridge_ifindices() is used from the old "deviceless" bridge ioctl

The peer may be expecting a reply having sent a request and then done a
shutdown(SHUT_WR), so tearing down the whole socket at this point seems
wrong and breaks for me with a client which does a SHUT_WR.
Looking at other socket family's stream_recvmsg callbacks doing a shutdown
here does not seem to be the norm and removing it does not seem to have
had any adverse effects that I can see.
I'm using Stefan's RFC virtio transport patches, I'm unsure of the impact
on the vmci transport.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
- a fix for the persistent memory 'struct page' driver. The
implementation overlooked the fact that pages are allocated in 2MB
units leading to -ENOMEM when establishing some configurations.
It's tagged for -stable as the problem was introduced with the
initial implementation in 4.5.
- The new "error status translation" routine, introduced with the 4.6
updates to the nfit driver, missed a necessary path in
acpi_nfit_ctl().
The end result is that we are falsely assuming commands complete
successfully when the embedded status says otherwise.

This is another attempt to avoid a regression in wwn_to_u64() after that
started using get_unaligned_be64(), which in turn ran into a bug on
gcc-4.9 through 6.1.
The regression got introduced due to the combination of two separate
workarounds (commits e3bde9568d99: "include/linux/unaligned: force
inlining of byteswap operations" and ef3fb2422ffe: "scsi: fc: use
get/put_unaligned64 for wwn access") that each try to sidestep distinct
problems with gcc behavior (code growth and increased stack usage).
Unfortunately after both have been applied, a more serious gcc bug has
been uncovered, leading to incorrect object code that discards part of a
function and causes undefined behavior.
As part of this problem is how __builtin_constant_p gets evaluated on an
argument passed by reference into an inline function, this avoids the
use of __builtin_constant_p() for all architectures that set
CONFIG_ARCH_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP. Most architectures do not set
ARCH_SUPPORTS_OPTIMIZED_INLINING, which means they probably do not
suffer from the problem in the qla2xxx driver, but they might still run
into it elsewhere.
Both of the original workarounds were only merged in the 4.6 kernel, and
the bug that is fixed by this patch should only appear if both are
there, so we probably don't need to backport the fix. On the other
hand, it works by simplifying the code path and should not have any
negative effects.

Recently, we allow to save the stacktrace whose hashed value is 0. It
causes the problem that stackdepot could return 0 even if in success.
User of stackdepot cannot distinguish whether it is success or not so we
need to solve this problem. In this patch, 1 bit are added to handle
and make valid handle none 0 by setting this bit. After that, valid
handle will not be 0 and 0 handle will represent failure correctly.

Since the wildcard at the end of OF module aliases is gone, autoloading
of modules that don't match a device's last (most generic) compatible
value fails.
For example the CODA960 VPU on i.MX6Q has the SoC specific compatible
"fsl,imx6q-vpu" and the generic compatible "cnm,coda960". Since the
driver currently only works with knowledge about the SoC specific
integration, it doesn't list "cnm,cod960" in the module device table.
This results in the device compatible
"of:NvpuT<NULL>Cfsl,imx6q-vpuCcnm,coda960" not matching the module alias
"of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpu" anymore, whereas before commit 2f632369ab79
("modpost: don't add a trailing wildcard for OF module aliases") it
matched the module alias "of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpu*".
This patch adds two module aliases for each compatible, one without the
wildcard and one with "C*" appended.
$ modinfo coda | grep imx6q
alias: of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpuC*
alias: of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpu

If /proc/<PID>/environ gets read before the envp[] array is fully set up
in create_{aout,elf,elf_fdpic,flat}_tables(), we might end up trying to
read more bytes than are actually written, as env_start will already be
set but env_end will still be zero, making the range calculation
underflow, allowing to read beyond the end of what has been written.
Fix this as it is done for /proc/<PID>/cmdline by testing env_end for
zero. It is, apparently, intentionally set last in create_*_tables().
This bug was found by the PaX size_overflow plugin that detected the
arithmetic underflow of 'this_len = env_end - (env_start + src)' when
env_end is still zero.
The expected consequence is that userland trying to access
/proc/<PID>/environ of a not yet fully set up process may get
inconsistent data as we're in the middle of copying in the environment
variables.

Instead of using "zswap" as the name for all zpools created, add an
atomic counter and use "zswap%x" with the counter number for each zpool
created, to provide a unique name for each new zpool.
As zsmalloc, one of the zpool implementations, requires/expects a unique
name for each pool created, zswap should provide a unique name. The
zsmalloc pool creation does not fail if a new pool with a conflicting
name is created, unless CONFIG_ZSMALLOC_STAT is enabled; in that case,
zsmalloc pool creation fails with -ENOMEM. Then zswap will be unable to
change its compressor parameter if its zpool is zsmalloc; it also will
be unable to change its zpool parameter back to zsmalloc, if it has any
existing old zpool using zsmalloc with page(s) in it. Attempts to
change the parameters will result in failure to create the zpool. This
changes zswap to provide a unique name for each zpool creation.

After the THP refcounting change, obtaining a compound pages from
get_user_pages() no longer allows us to assume the entire compound page
is immediately mappable from a secondary MMU.
A secondary MMU doesn't want to call get_user_pages() more than once for
each compound page, in order to know if it can map the whole compound
page. So a secondary MMU needs to know from a single get_user_pages()
invocation when it can map immediately the entire compound page to avoid
a flood of unnecessary secondary MMU faults and spurious
atomic_inc()/atomic_dec() (pages don't have to be pinned by MMU notifier
users).
Ideally instead of the page->_mapcount < 1 check, get_user_pages()
should return the granularity of the "page" mapping in the "mm" passed
to get_user_pages(). However it's non trivial change to pass the "pmd"
status belonging to the "mm" walked by get_user_pages up the stack (up
to the caller of get_user_pages). So the fix just checks if there is
not a single pte mapping on the page returned by get_user_pages, and in
turn if the caller can assume that the whole compound page is mapped in
the current "mm" (in a pmd_trans_huge()). In such case the entire
compound page is safe to map into the secondary MMU without additional
get_user_pages() calls on the surrounding tail/head pages. In addition
of being faster, not having to run other get_user_pages() calls also
reduces the memory footprint of the secondary MMU fault in case the pmd
split happened as result of memory pressure.
Without this fix after a MADV_DONTNEED (like invoked by QEMU during
postcopy live migration or balloning) or after generic swapping (with a
failure in split_huge_page() that would only result in pmd splitting and
not a physical page split), KVM would map the whole compound page into
the shadow pagetables, despite regular faults or userfaults (like
UFFDIO_COPY) may map regular pages into the primary MMU as result of the
pte faults, leading to the guest mode and userland mode going out of
sync and not working on the same memory at all times.
Any other secondary MMU notifier manager (KVM is just one of the many
MMU notifier users) will need the same information if it doesn't want to
run a flood of get_user_pages_fast and it can support multiple
granularity in the secondary MMU mappings, so I think it is justified to
be exposed not just to KVM.
The other option would be to move transparent_hugepage_adjust to
mm/huge_memory.c but that currently has all kind of KVM data structures
in it, so it's definitely not a cut-and-paste work, so I couldn't do a
fix as cleaner as this one for 4.6.

/proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh warns nr_isolated_anon and nr_isolated_file go
increasingly negative under compaction: which would add delay when
should be none, or no delay when should delay. The bug in compaction
was due to a recent mmotm patch, but much older instance of the bug was
also noticed in isolate_migratepages_range() which is used for CMA and
gigantic hugepage allocations.
The bug is caused by putback_movable_pages() in an error path
decrementing the isolated counters without them being previously
incremented by acct_isolated(). Fix isolate_migratepages_range() by
removing the error-path putback, thus reaching acct_isolated() with
migratepages still isolated, and leaving putback to caller like most
other places do.
Fixes: edc2ca612496 ("mm, compaction: move pageblock checks up from isolate_migratepages_range()")

Khugepaged attempts to raise min_free_kbytes if its set too low.
However, on boot khugepaged sets min_free_kbytes first from
subsys_initcall(), and then the mm 'core' over-rides min_free_kbytes
after from init_per_zone_wmark_min(), via a module_init() call.
Khugepaged used to use a late_initcall() to set min_free_kbytes (such
that it occurred after the core initialization), however this was
removed when the initialization of min_free_kbytes was integrated into
the starting of the khugepaged thread.
The fix here is simply to invoke the core initialization using a
core_initcall() instead of module_init(), such that the previous
initialization ordering is restored. I didn't restore the
late_initcall() since start_stop_khugepaged() already sets
min_free_kbytes via set_recommended_min_free_kbytes().
This was noticed when we had a number of page allocation failures when
moving a workload to a kernel with this new initialization ordering. On
an 8GB system this restores min_free_kbytes back to 67584 from 11365
when CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=y is set and either
CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_ALWAYS=y or
CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_MADVISE=y.

zap_pmd_range()'s CONFIG_DEBUG_VM !rwsem_is_locked(&mmap_sem) BUG() will
be invalid with huge pagecache, in whatever way it is implemented:
truncation of a hugely-mapped file to an unhugely-aligned size would
easily hit it.
(Although anon THP could in principle apply khugepaged to private file
mappings, which are not excluded by the MADV_HUGEPAGE restrictions, in
practice there's a vm_ops check which excludes them, so it never hits
this BUG() - there's no interface to "truncate" an anonymous mapping.)
We could complicate the test, to check i_mmap_rwsem also when there's a
vm_file; but my inclination was to make zap_pmd_range() more readable by
simply deleting this check. A search has shown no report of the issue
in the years since commit e0897d75f0b2 ("mm, thp: print useful
information when mmap_sem is unlocked in zap_pmd_range") expanded it
from VM_BUG_ON() - though I cannot point to what commit I would say then
fixed the issue.
But there are a couple of other patches now floating around, neither yet
in the tree: let's agree to retain the check as a VM_BUG_ON_VMA(), as
Matthew Wilcox has done; but subject to a vma_is_anonymous() check, as
Kirill Shutemov has done. And let's get this in, without waiting for
any particular huge pagecache implementation to reach the tree.
Matthew said "We can reproduce this BUG() in the current Linus tree with
DAX PMDs".

In perf_mmap__read(), give better names to pointers. Original name 'old'
and 'head' directly related to pointers in ring buffer control page. For
backward ring buffer, the meaning of 'head' point is not 'the first byte
of free space', but 'the first byte of the last record'. To reduce
confusion, rename 'old' to 'start', 'head' to 'end'. 'start' -> 'end'
is the direction the records should be read from.
Change parameter order.
Change 'overwrite' to 'check_messup'. When reading from 'head', no need
to check messup for for backward ring buffer.

ppc64le functions have a Global Entry Point (GEP) and a Local Entry
Point (LEP). While placing a probe, we always prefer the LEP since it
catches function calls through both the GEP and the LEP. In order to do
this, we fixup the function entry points during elf symbol table lookup
to point to the LEPs. This works, but breaks 'perf test kallsyms' since
the symbols loaded from the symbol table (pointing to the LEP) do not
match the symbols in kallsyms.
To fix this, we do not adjust all the symbols during symbol table load.
Instead, we note down st_other in a newly introduced arch-specific
member of perf symbol structure, and later use this to adjust the probe
trace point.

So far, we used to treat probe point offsets as being offset from the
LEP. However, userspace applications (objdump/readelf) always show
disassembly and offsets from the function GEP. This is confusing to the
user as we will end up probing at an address different from what the
user expects when looking at the function disassembly with
readelf/objdump. Fix this by changing how we modify probe address with
perf.
If only the function name is provided, we assume the user needs the LEP.
Otherwise, if an offset is specified, we assume that the user knows the
exact address to probe based on function disassembly, and so we just
place the probe from the GEP offset.
Finally, kretprobe was also broken with kallsyms as we were trying to
specify an offset. This patch also fixes that issue.

Sometimes we want to sort an existing rbtree by a different key,
introduce a template for that, that needs only to be provided the
rbtree root and the number of entries in it.
To do that a new rbtree will be created with extra space for each entry,
where possibly pre-calculated keys will be stored to be used in the
resort process and also later, when using the newly sorted rbtree.
Please check the following two changesets to see it in use for resorting
stats for threads and its syscalls in 'perf trace --summary'.

Pull asm-generic syscall fix from Arnd Bergmann:
"My last pull request for asm-generic had just one patch that added two
new system calls to asm/unistd.h, but unfortunately it turned out to
be wrong, pointing arch/tile compat mode at the native handlers rather
than the compat ones.
This was spotted by Yury Norov, who is working on ILP32 mode for
arch/arm64, which would have the same problem when merged. This fixes
the table to use the correct compat syscalls, like the other 64-bit
architectures do.
I'll try to find the time to come up with a solution that prevents
this problem from happening again, by allowing all future system calls
to just get added in a single file for use by all architectures"

Fourth set of IIO fixes for the 4.6 cycle.
This last minute set is concerned with a regression in the mpu6050 driver.
The regression causes a null pointer dereference on any ACPI device
that has one of these present such as the ASUS T100TA Baytrail/T.
The issue was known but thought (i.e. missunderstood by me)
to only be a possible with no reports, so was routed via the normal merge
window. Turns out this was wrong (thanks to Alan for reporting the crash).
The pull is just for the null dereference fix and a followup fix
that also stops the reported name of the device being NULL.
* mpu6050
- Fix a 'possible' NULL dereference introduced as part of splitting the
driver to allow both i2c and spi to be supported. The issue affects ACPI
systems with this device.
- Fix a follow up issue where the name and chip id both get set to null if
the device driver instance is instantiated from ACPI tables.

Commit 947e9762a8dd ("writeback: update wb_over_bg_thresh() to use
wb_domain aware operations") unintentionally changed this function's
meaning from "are there more dirty pages than the background writeback
threshold" to "are there more dirty pages than the writeback threshold".
The background writeback threshold is typically half of the writeback
threshold, so this had the effect of raising the number of dirty pages
required to cause a writeback worker to perform background writeout.
This can cause a very severe performance regression when a BDI uses
BDI_CAP_STRICTLIMIT because balance_dirty_pages() and the writeback worker
can now disagree on whether writeback should be initiated.
For example, in a system having 1GB of RAM, a single spinning disk, and a
"pass-through" FUSE filesystem mounted over the disk, application code
mmapped a 128MB file on the disk and was randomly dirtying pages in that
mapping.
Because FUSE uses strictlimit and has a default max_ratio of only 1%, in
balance_dirty_pages, thresh is ~200, bg_thresh is ~100, and the
dirty_freerun_ceiling is the average of those, ~150. So, it pauses the
dirtying processes when we have 151 dirty pages and wakes up a background
writeback worker. But the worker tests the wrong threshold (200 instead of
100), so it does not initiate writeback and just returns.
Thus, balance_dirty_pages keeps looping, sleeping and then waking up the
worker who will do nothing. It remains stuck in this state until the few
dirty pages that we have finally expire and we write them back for that
reason. Then the whole process repeats, resulting in near-zero throughput
through the FUSE BDI.
The fix is to call the parameterized variant of wb_calc_thresh, so that the
worker will do writeback if the bg_thresh is exceeded which was the
behavior before the referenced commit.

Recursive undefined instrcution falut is seen with R-class taking an
exception. The reson for that is __show_regs() tries to get domain
information, but domains is not available on !MMU cores, like R/M
class.
Fix it by puting {set,get}_domain functions under CONFIG_CPU_CP15_MMU
guard and providing stubs for the case where domains is not supported.
