Add support for the memory mapped timers by filling in the
read/write functions and adding some parsing code. Note that we
only register one clocksource, preferring the cp15 based
clocksource over the mmio one.
To keep things simple we register one global clockevent. This
covers the case of UP and SMP systems with only mmio hardware and
systems where the memory mapped timers are used as the broadcast
timer in low power modes.
The DT binding allows for per-CPU memory mapped timers in case we
want to support that in the future, but the code isn't added
here. We also don't do much for hypervisor support, although it
should be possible to support it by searching for at least two
frames where one frame has the virtual capability and then
updating KVM timers to support it.

Using an enum for the register we wish to access allows newer
compilers to determine if we've forgotten a case in our switch
statement. This allows us to remove the BUILD_BUG() instances in
the arm64 port, avoiding problems where optimizations may not
happen.
To try and force better code generation we're currently marking
the accessor functions as inline, but newer compilers can ignore
the inline keyword unless it's marked __always_inline. Luckily on
arm and arm64 inline is __always_inline, but let's make
everything __always_inline to be explicit.

commit 14c63f17b1 upstream.
This patch keeps track of how long perf's NMI handler is taking,
and also calculates how many samples perf can take a second. If
the sample length times the expected max number of samples
exceeds a configurable threshold, it drops the sample rate.
This way, we don't have a runaway sampling process eating up the
CPU.
This patch can tend to drop the sample rate down to level where
perf doesn't work very well. *BUT* the alternative is that my
system hangs because it spends all of its time handling NMIs.
I'll take a busted performance tool over an entire system that's
busted and undebuggable any day.
BTW, my suspicion is that there's still an underlying bug here.
Using the HPET instead of the TSC is definitely a contributing
factor, but I suspect there are some other things going on.
But, I can't go dig down on a bug like that with my machine
hanging all the time.

commit 4c88d7f9b0 upstream.
Patch 01f8fa4f01 "genirq: Allow forcing cpu affinity of interrupts" added
an irq_force_affinity() function, and 30ccf03b4a "clocksource: Exynos_mct:
Use irq_force_affinity() in cpu bringup" subsequently uses it. However, the
driver can be used with CONFIG_SMP disabled, but the function declaration
is only available for CONFIG_SMP, leading to this build error:
drivers/clocksource/exynos_mct.c:431:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'irq_force_affinity' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
irq_force_affinity(mct_irqs[MCT_L0_IRQ + cpu], cpumask_of(cpu));
This patch introduces a dummy helper function for the non-SMP case
that always returns success, to get rid of the build error.
Since the patches causing the problem are marked for stable backports,
this one should be as well.

commit cbfbbabb89 upstream.
The version of the drm_tegra_submit structure that was merged all the
way back in 3.10 contains a pad field that was originally intended to
properly pad the following __u64 field. Unfortunately it seems like a
different field was dropped during review that caused this padding to
become unnecessary, but the pad field wasn't removed at that time.
One possible side-effect of this is that since the __u64 following the
pad is now no longer properly aligned, the compiler may (or may not)
introduce padding itself, which results in no predictable ABI.
Rectify this by removing the pad field so that all fields are again
naturally aligned. Technically this is breaking existing userspace ABI,
but given that there aren't any (released) userspace drivers that make
use of this yet, the fallout should be minimal.

commit 01f8fa4f01 upstream.
The current implementation of irq_set_affinity() refuses rightfully to
route an interrupt to an offline cpu.
But there is a special case, where this is actually desired. Some of
the ARM SoCs have per cpu timers which require setting the affinity
during cpu startup where the cpu is not yet in the online mask.
If we can't do that, then the local timer interrupt for the about to
become online cpu is routed to some random online cpu.
The developers of the affected machines tried to work around that
issue, but that results in a massive mess in that timer code.
We have a yet unused argument in the set_affinity callbacks of the irq
chips, which I added back then for a similar reason. It was never
required so it got not used. But I'm happy that I never removed it.
That allows us to implement a sane handling of the above scenario. So
the affected SoC drivers can add the required force handling to their
interrupt chip, switch the timer code to irq_force_affinity() and
things just work.
This does not affect any existing user of irq_set_affinity().
Tagged for stable to allow a simple fix of the affected SoC clock
event drivers.

When this race happens, ftrace_bug() will produces a nasty warning and
all of the function tracing features will be disabled until reboot.
The simple solution is to treate module load the same way the core
kernel is treated at boot. To hardcode the ftrace function modification
of converting calls to mcount into nops. This is done in init/main.c
there's no reason it could not be done in load_module(). This gives
a better control of the changes and doesn't tie the state of the
module to its notifiers as much. Ftrace is special, it needs to be
treated as such.
The reason this would work, is that the ftrace_module_init() would be
called while the module is in MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED, which is ignored
by the set_all_module_text_ro() call.

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
What happens while auth_enable=0 in that case is, that
ep->auth_hmacs is initialized to NULL in sctp_auth_init_hmacs()
when endpoint is being created.
After that point, if an admin switches over to auth_enable=1,
the machine can crash due to NULL pointer dereference during
reception of an INIT chunk. When we enter sctp_process_init()
via sctp_sf_do_5_1B_init() in order to respond to an INIT chunk,
the INIT verification succeeds and while we walk and process
all INIT params via sctp_process_param() we find that
net->sctp.auth_enable is set, therefore do not fall through,
but invoke sctp_auth_asoc_set_default_hmac() instead, and thus,
dereference what we have set to NULL during endpoint
initialization phase.
The fix is to make auth_enable immutable by caching its value
during endpoint initialization, so that its original value is
being carried along until destruction. The bug seems to originate
from the very first days.
Fix in joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

commit 29c7787075 upstream.
David Vrabel identified a regression when using automatic NUMA balancing
under Xen whereby page table entries were getting corrupted due to the
use of native PTE operations. Quoting him
Xen PV guest page tables require that their entries use machine
addresses if the preset bit (_PAGE_PRESENT) is set, and (for
successful migration) non-present PTEs must use pseudo-physical
addresses. This is because on migration MFNs in present PTEs are
translated to PFNs (canonicalised) so they may be translated back
to the new MFN in the destination domain (uncanonicalised).
pte_mknonnuma(), pmd_mknonnuma(), pte_mknuma() and pmd_mknuma()
set and clear the _PAGE_PRESENT bit using pte_set_flags(),
pte_clear_flags(), etc.
In a Xen PV guest, these functions must translate MFNs to PFNs
when clearing _PAGE_PRESENT and translate PFNs to MFNs when setting
_PAGE_PRESENT.
His suggested fix converted p[te|md]_[set|clear]_flags to using
paravirt-friendly ops but this is overkill. He suggested an alternative
of using p[te|md]_modify in the NUMA page table operations but this is
does more work than necessary and would require looking up a VMA for
protections.
This patch modifies the NUMA page table operations to use paravirt
friendly operations to set/clear the flags of interest. Unfortunately
this will take a performance hit when updating the PTEs on
CONFIG_PARAVIRT but I do not see a way around it that does not break
Xen.

nf_ct_ext_types[6]->len = 16
nf_ct_ext_types[7]->len = 8
I have seen "len" up to 280 and my host has crashes w/o this patch.
The right way to fix this problem is reducing the size of the ecache

The asm-generic, big-endian version of zero_bytemask creates a mask of
bytes preceding the first zero-byte by left shifting ~0ul based on the
position of the first zero byte.
Unfortunately, if the first (top) byte is zero, the output of
prep_zero_mask has only the top bit set, resulting in undefined C
behaviour as we shift left by an amount equal to the width of the type.
As it happens, GCC doesn't manage to spot this through the call to fls(),
but the issue remains if architectures choose to implement their shift
instructions differently.
An example would be arch/arm/ (AArch32), where LSL Rd, Rn, #32 results
in Rd == 0x0, whilst on arch/arm64 (AArch64) LSL Xd, Xn, #64 results in
Xd == Xn.
Rather than check explicitly for the problematic shift, this patch adds
an extra shift by 1, replacing fls with __fls. Since zero_bytemask is
never called with a zero argument (has_zero() is used to check the data
first), we don't need to worry about calling __fls(0), which is
undefined.

whatever padding before data to 0.
Add the other normal alloc variants as static inlines with __GFP_ZERO
added to the gfp flag where appropriate:
devm_kzalloc
devm_kcalloc
devm_kmalloc_array
Add gfp.h to device.h for the newly added static inlines.
akpm: the current API forces us to replace kmalloc() with kzalloc() when
performing devm_ conversions. This adds a relatively minor overhead.
More significantly, it will defeat kmemcheck used-uninitialized checking,
and for a particular driver, losing used-uninitialised checking for their
core controlling data structures will significantly degrade kmemcheck

There has been quite a bit of debate about whether to use u64 or phys_addr_t.
It was concluded to stick to u64 to be consistent with rest of the device
tree code. As summarized by Geert, "The address to load the initrd is decided
by the bootloader/user and set at that point later in time. The dtb should not
be tied to the kernel you are booting"

All Transparent Huge Pages are allocated by the buddy allocator.
A compile time check is in place that fails when the order of a
transparent huge page is too large to be allocated by the buddy
allocator. Unfortunately that compile time check passes when:
HPAGE_PMD_ORDER == MAX_ORDER
( which is incorrect as the buddy allocator can only allocate
memory of order strictly less than MAX_ORDER. )
This patch updates the compile time check to fail in the above
case.

Under x86, multiple puds can be made to reference the same bank of
huge pmds provided that they represent a full PUD_SIZE of shared
huge memory that is aligned to a PUD_SIZE boundary.
The code to share pmds does not require any architecture specific
knowledge other than the fact that pmds can be indexed, thus can
be beneficial to some other architectures.
This patch copies the huge pmd sharing (and unsharing) logic from
x86/ to mm/ and introduces a new config option to activate it:
CONFIG_ARCH_WANTS_HUGE_PMD_SHARE

commit 0d651e4e65 upstream.
Switching between reading the virtual or physical counters is
problematic, as some core code wants a view of time before we're fully
set up. Using a function pointer and switching the source after the
first read can make time appear to go backwards, and having a check in
the read function is an unfortunate block on what we want to be a fast
path.
Instead, this patch makes us always use the virtual counters. If we're a
guest, or don't have hyp mode, we'll use the virtual timers, and as such
don't care about CNTVOFF as long as it doesn't change in such a way as
to make time appear to travel backwards. As the guest will use the
virtual timers, a (potential) KVM host must use the physical timers
(which can wake up the host even if they fire while a guest is
executing), and hence a host must have CNTVOFF set to zero so as to have
a consistent view of time between the physical timers and virtual
counters.
