Pul removal of obsolete architecture ports from Arnd Bergmann:
"This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv,
m32r, metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device
drivers.
I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to
ensure that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely
unused in mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the
respective ports to start with and getting them included in upstream,
but also saw no point in keeping the port alive without any users.
In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely
different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company in
charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software
ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf
CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It
seems that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not
used the custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In
contrast, CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively
maintained kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees.
[ See the new nds32 port merged in the previous commit for the next
generation of "one company in charge of an SoC line, a CPU
microarchitecture and a software ecosystem" - Linus ]
The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at
https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not
marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I
made sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile,
mn10300, and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old
kernels, but those products will never be updated to newer kernel
releases.
After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline
gcc support:
- unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the
maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least
in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc.
- openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing
their support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first
place. They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some
degree, but complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1.
Csky posted their first kernel patch set last week, their situation
will be similar
[ Palmer Dabbelt points out that RISC-V support is in mainline gcc
since gcc-7, although gcc-7.3.0 is the recommended minimum - Linus ]"
This really says it all:

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in the locking subsystem in this cycle were:
- Add the Linux Kernel Memory Consistency Model (LKMM) subsystem,
which is an an array of tools in tools/memory-model/ that formally
describe the Linux memory coherency model (a.k.a.
Documentation/memory-barriers.txt), and also produce 'litmus tests'
in form of kernel code which can be directly executed and tested.
Here's a high level background article about an earlier version of
this work on LWN.net:
https://lwn.net/Articles/718628/
The design principles:
"There is reason to believe that Documentation/memory-barriers.txt
could use some help, and a major purpose of this patch is to
provide that help in the form of a design-time tool that can
produce all valid executions of a small fragment of concurrent
Linux-kernel code, which is called a "litmus test". This tool's
functionality is roughly similar to a full state-space search.
Please note that this is a design-time tool, not useful for
regression testing. However, we hope that the underlying
Linux-kernel memory model will be incorporated into other tools
capable of analyzing large bodies of code for regression-testing
purposes."
[...]
"A second tool is klitmus7, which converts litmus tests to
loadable kernel modules for direct testing. As with herd7, the
klitmus7 code is freely available from
http://diy.inria.fr/sources/index.html
(and via "git" at https://github.com/herd/herdtools7)"
[...]

founded by Jade Alglave and also including Alan Stern, Andrea
Parri, and Luc Maranget."

Two config options in the lock debugging menu that are probably the most
frequently used, as far as I am concerned, is the PROVE_LOCKING and
LOCK_STAT. From a UI perspective, they should be front and center. So
these two options are now moved to the top of the lock debugging menu.
The DEBUG_WW_MUTEX_SLOWPATH option is also added to the PROVE_LOCKING
umbrella.

There are a couples of lock debugging Kconfig options that depends on
the following support options:
- TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT
- STACKTRACE_SUPPORT
- LOCKDEP_SUPPORT
That makes those lock debugging options harder to read and understand.
So a new LOCK_DEBUGGING_SUPPORT option is added that is equivalent to
the above three options together. That makes the Kconfig.debug file
more readable.

For a rwsem, locking can either be exclusive or shared. The corresponding
exclusive or shared unlock must be used. Otherwise, the protected data
structures may get corrupted or the lock may be in an inconsistent state.
In order to detect such anomaly, a new configuration option DEBUG_RWSEMS
is added which can be enabled to look for such mismatches and print
warnings that that happens.

Revert the clearing of __GFP_ZERO in dma_alloc_attrs and move it to
dma_direct_alloc for now. While most common architectures always zero dma
cohereny allocations (and x86 did so since day one) this is not documented
and at least arc and s390 do not zero without the explicit __GFP_ZERO
argument.

On architectures with CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP set, ioremap() may
create pud/pmd mappings. A kernel panic was observed on arm64 systems
with Cortex-A75 in the following steps as described by Hanjun Guo.
1. ioremap a 4K size, valid page table will build,
2. iounmap it, pte0 will set to 0;
3. ioremap the same address with 2M size, pgd/pmd is unchanged,
then set the a new value for pmd;
4. pte0 is leaked;
5. CPU may meet exception because the old pmd is still in TLB,
which will lead to kernel panic.
This panic is not reproducible on x86. INVLPG, called from iounmap,
purges all levels of entries associated with purged address on x86. x86
still has memory leak.
The patch changes the ioremap path to free unmapped page table(s) since
doing so in the unmap path has the following issues:
- The iounmap() path is shared with vunmap(). Since vmap() only
supports pte mappings, making vunmap() to free a pte page is an
overhead for regular vmap users as they do not need a pte page freed
up.
- Checking if all entries in a pte page are cleared in the unmap path
is racy, and serializing this check is expensive.
- The unmap path calls free_vmap_area_noflush() to do lazy TLB purges.
Clearing a pud/pmd entry before the lazy TLB purges needs extra TLB
purge.
Add two interfaces, pud_free_pmd_page() and pmd_free_pte_page(), which
clear a given pud/pmd entry and free up a page for the lower level
entries.
This patch implements their stub functions on x86 and arm64, which work
as workaround.

Function bpf_fill_maxinsns11 is designed to not be able to be JITed on
x86_64. So, it fails when CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON=y, and
commit 09584b406742 ("bpf: fix selftests/bpf test_kmod.sh failure when
CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON=y") makes sure that failure is detected on that
case.
However, it does not fail on other architectures, which have a different
JIT compiler design. So, test_bpf has started to fail to load on those.
After this fix, test_bpf loads fine on both x86_64 and ppc64el.

With that in place the generic DMA-direct routines can be used to
allocate non-encrypted bounce buffers, and the x86 SEV case can use
the generic swiotlb ops including nice features such as using CMA
allocations.
Note that I'm not too happy about using sev_active() in DMA-direct, but
I couldn't come up with a good enough name for a wrapper to make it

Pull percpu fixes from Tejun Heo:
"Late percpu pull request for v4.16-rc6.
- percpu allocator pool replenishing no longer triggers OOM or
warning messages.
Also, the alloc interface now understands __GFP_NORETRY and
__GFP_NOWARN. This is to allow avoiding OOMs from userland
triggered actions like bpf map creation.
Also added cond_resched() in alloc loop.
- perpcu allocation now can be interrupted by kill sigs to avoid
deadlocking OOM killer.
- Added Dennis Zhou as a co-maintainer.
He has rewritten the area map allocator, understands most of the
code base and has been responsive for all bug reports"
* 'for-4.16-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu:
percpu_ref: Update doc to dissuade users from depending on internal RCU grace periods
mm: Allow to kill tasks doing pcpu_alloc() and waiting for pcpu_balance_workfn()

grace periods
percpu_ref internally uses sched-RCU to implement the percpu -> atomic
mode switching and the documentation suggested that this could be
depended upon. This doesn't seem like a good idea.
* percpu_ref uses sched-RCU which has different grace periods regular
RCU. Users may combine percpu_ref with regular RCU usage and
incorrectly believe that regular RCU grace periods are performed by
percpu_ref. This can lead to, for example, use-after-free due to
premature freeing.
* percpu_ref has a grace period when switching from percpu to atomic
mode. It doesn't have one between the last put and release. This
distinction is subtle and can lead to surprising bugs.
* percpu_ref allows starting in and switching to atomic mode manually
for debugging and other purposes. This means that there may not be
any grace periods from kill to release.
This patch makes it clear that the grace periods are percpu_ref's
internal implementation detail and can't be depended upon by the
users.

As reported by Dan the parentheses is in the wrong place, and since
unlikely() call returns either 0 or 1 it's never less than zero. The
second issue is that signed integer overflows like "INT_MAX + 1" are
undefined behavior.
Since num_test_devs represents the number of devices, we want to stop
prior to hitting the max, and not rely on the wrap arround at all. So
just cap at num_test_devs + 1, prior to assigning a new device.

Commit b8347c219649 ("x86/debug: Handle warnings before the notifier
chain, to fix KGDB crash") changed the ordering of fixups, and did not
take into account the case of x86 processing non-WARN() and non-BUG()
exceptions. This would lead to output of a false BUG line with no other
information.
In the case of a refcount exception, it would be immediately followed by
the refcount WARN(), producing very strange double-"cut here":
lkdtm: attempting bad refcount_inc() overflow
------------[ cut here ]------------
Kernel BUG at 0000000065f29de5 [verbose debug info unavailable]
------------[ cut here ]------------
refcount_t overflow at lkdtm_REFCOUNT_INC_OVERFLOW+0x6b/0x90 in cat[3065], uid/euid: 0/0
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 3065 at kernel/panic.c:657 refcount_error_report+0x9a/0xa4
...
In the prior ordering, exceptions were searched first:
do_trap_no_signal(struct task_struct *tsk, int trapnr, char *str,
...
if (fixup_exception(regs, trapnr))
return 0;
- if (fixup_bug(regs, trapnr))
- return 0;
-
As a result, fixup_bugs()'s is_valid_bugaddr() didn't take into account
needing to search the exception list first, since that had already
happened.
So, instead of searching the exception list twice (once in
is_valid_bugaddr() and then again in fixup_exception()), just add a
simple sanity check to report_bug() that will immediately bail out if a
BUG() (or WARN()) entry is not found.

When inserting duplicate objects (those with the same key),
current rhlist implementation messes up the chain pointers by
updating the bucket pointer instead of prev next pointer to the
newly inserted node. This causes missing elements on removal and
travesal.
Fix that by properly updating pprev pointer to point to
the correct rhash_head next pointer.

pull-request: bpf 2018-02-28
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Add schedule points and reduce the number of loop iterations
the test_bpf kernel module is performing in order to not hog
the CPU for too long, from Eric.
2) Fix an out of bounds access in tail calls in the ppc64 BPF
JIT compiler, from Daniel.
3) Fix a crash on arm64 on unaligned BPF xadd operations that
could be triggered via interpreter and JIT, from Daniel.
Please not that once you merge net into net-next at some point, there
is a minor merge conflict in test_verifier.c since test cases had
been added at the end in both trees. Resolution is trivial: keep all
the test cases from both trees.

The root cause is doing a signed comparison in idr_alloc_u32() instead
of an unsigned comparison. I went looking for any similar problems and
found a couple (which would each result in the failure to warn in two

I knocked up a few test-cases to prove that I was right and added them

As far as I can tell, the only place the per-cpu ida_bitmap is populated
is in ida_pre_get. The pre-allocated element is stolen in two places in
ida_get_new_above, in both cases immediately followed by a memset(0).
Since ida_get_new_above is called with locks held, do the zeroing in
ida_pre_get, or rather let kmalloc() do it. Also, apparently gcc
generates ~44 bytes of code to do a memset(, 0, 128):

__debug_check_no_obj_freed() iterates over the to be freed memory region in
chunks and iterates over the corresponding hash bucket list for each

The code path might be called in either atomic or non-atomic context, but
in_atomic() can't tell if the current context is atomic or not on a
PREEMPT=n kernel, so cond_resched() can't be used to prevent the
softlockup.

The newly added global free list allows to avoid lengthy pool_list
iterations in free_obj_work() by putting objects either into the pool list
when the fill level of the pool is below the maximum or by putting them on
the global free list immediately.
As the pool is now guaranteed to never exceed the maximum fill level this
allows to remove the batch removal from pool list in free_obj_work().
Split free_object() into two parts, so the actual queueing function can be
reused without invoking schedule_work() on every invocation.

free_object() adds objects to the pool list and schedules work when the
pool list is larger than the pool size. The worker handles the actual
kfree() of the object by iterating the pool list until the pool size is
below the maximum pool size again.
To iterate the pool list, pool_lock has to be held and the objects which
should be freed() need to be put into temporary storage so pool_lock can be
dropped for the actual kmem_cache_free() invocation. That's a pointless and
expensive exercise if there is a large number of objects to free.
In such a case its better to evaulate the fill level of the pool in
free_objects() and queue the object to free either in the pool list or if
it's full on a separate global free list.
The worker can then do the following simpler operation:
- Move objects back from the global free list to the pool list if the
pool list is not longer full.
- Remove the remaining objects in a single list move operation from the
global free list and do the kmem_cache_free() operation lockless from
the temporary list head.
In fill_pool() the global free list is checked as well to avoid real
allocations from the kmem cache.
Add the necessary list head and a counter for the number of objects on the
global free list and export that counter via sysfs:
max_chain :79
max_loops :8147
warnings :0
fixups :0
pool_free :1697
pool_min_free :346
pool_used :15356
pool_max_used :23933
on_free_list :39
objs_allocated:32617
objs_freed :16588
Nothing queues objects on the global free list yet. This happens in a
follow up change.

__debug_check_no_obj_freed() can be an expensive operation depending on the
size of memory freed. It already exports the maximum chain walk length via
debugfs, but this only records the maximum of a single memory chunk.
Though there is no information about the total number of objects inspected
for a __debug_check_no_obj_freed() operation, which might be significantly
larger when a huge memory region is freed.
Aggregate the number of objects inspected for a single invocation of
__debug_check_no_obj_freed() and export it via sysfs.
The resulting output of /sys/kernel/debug/debug_objects/stats looks like:
max_chain :121
max_checked :543267
warnings :0
fixups :0
pool_free :1764
pool_min_free :341
pool_used :86438
pool_max_used :268887
objs_allocated:6068254
objs_freed :5981076
[ tglx: Renamed the variable to max_checked and adjusted changelog ]

Various PCI_DMA_BUS_IS_PHYS implementations rely on this flag to make proper
decisions for block and networking addressability.
