Pull arm64 fixes from Catalin Marinas:
- add TLB invalidation for page table tear-down which was missed when
support for CONFIG_HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE was added (assuming page table
freeing was always deferred)
- use UEFI for system and reset poweroff if available
- fix asm label placement in relation to the alignment statement
* tag 'arm64-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux:

Another one for the big head.S spring cleaning: the label should
be after the .align or it may point to the padding.

If UEFI Runtime Services are available, they are preferred over direct
PSCI calls or other methods to reset the system.
For the reset case, we need to hook into machine_restart(), as the
arm_pm_restart function pointer may be overwritten by modules.

The ARM architecture allows the caching of intermediate page table
levels and page table freeing requires a sequence like:
pmd_clear()
TLB invalidation
pte page freeing
With commit 5e5f6dc10546 (arm64: mm: enable HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE logic),
the page table freeing batching was moved from tlb_remove_page() to
tlb_remove_table(). The former takes care of TLB invalidation as this is
also shared with pte clearing and page cache page freeing. The latter,
however, does not invalidate the TLBs for intermediate page table levels
as it probably relies on the architecture code to do it if required.
When the mm->mm_users < 2, tlb_remove_table() does not do any batching
and page table pages are freed before tlb_finish_mmu() which performs
the actual TLB invalidation.
This patch introduces __tlb_flush_pgtable() for arm64 and calls it from
the {pte,pmd,pud}_free_tlb() directly without relying on deferred page
table freeing.

The set_memory_* functions currently only support module
addresses. The addresses are validated using is_module_addr.
That function is special though and relies on internal state
in the module subsystem to work properly. At the time of
module initialization and calling set_memory_*, it's too early
for is_module_addr to work properly so it always returns
false. Rather than be subject to the whims of the module state,
just bounds check against the module virtual address range.

ARM64 CPUidle driver requires the cpu_do_idle function so that it can
be used to enter the shallowest idle state, and it is declared in
asm/proc-fns.h.
The current ARM64 CPUidle driver does not include asm/proc-fns.h
explicitly and it has so far relied on implicit inclusion from other
header files.
Owing to some header dependencies reshuffling this currently triggers
build failures when CONFIG_ARM64_64K_PAGES=y:
drivers/cpuidle/cpuidle-arm64.c: In function "arm64_enter_idle_state"
drivers/cpuidle/cpuidle-arm64.c:42:3: error: implicit declaration of
function "cpu_do_idle" [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
cpu_do_idle();
^
This patch adds the explicit inclusion of the asm/proc-fns.h header file
in the arm64 asm/cpuidle.h header file, so that the build breakage is fixed
and the required header inclusion is added to the appropriate arch back-end
CPUidle header, already included by the CPUidle arm64 driver, where
CPUidle arch related function declarations belong.

The native (64-bit) sigval_t union contains sival_int (32-bit) and
sival_ptr (64-bit). When a compat application invokes a syscall that
takes a sigval_t value (as part of a larger structure, e.g.
compat_sys_mq_notify, compat_sys_timer_create), the compat_sigval_t
union is converted to the native sigval_t with sival_int overlapping
with either the least or the most significant half of sival_ptr,
depending on endianness. When the corresponding signal is delivered to a
compat application, on big endian the current (compat_uptr_t)sival_ptr
cast always returns 0 since sival_int corresponds to the top part of
sival_ptr. This patch fixes copy_siginfo_to_user32() so that sival_int
is copied to the compat_siginfo_t structure.

With commit 3690951fc6d4 (arm64: Use swiotlb late initialisation), the
swiotlb buffer size is limited to MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES. However, there are
platforms with 32-bit only devices that require bounce buffering via
swiotlb. This patch changes the swiotlb initialisation to an early 64MB
memblock allocation. In order to get the swiotlb buffer correctly
allocated (via memblock_virt_alloc_low_nopanic), this patch also defines
ARCH_LOW_ADDRESS_LIMIT to the maximum physical address capable of 32-bit
DMA.

Patch 2f896d586610 ("arm64: use fixmap for text patching") changed

modules are flagged as read only.
Unfortunately, a flaw in the logic makes it fall over when patching

This is triggered by the use of virt_to_page() on a module address,
which ends to pointing to Nowhereland if you're lucky, or corrupt
your precious data if not.
This patch fixes the logic by mimicking what is done on arm:
- If we're patching a module and CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX is set,
use vmalloc_to_page().
- If we're patching the kernel and CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is set,
use virt_to_page().
- Otherwise, use the provided address, as we can write to it directly.
Tested on 4.0-rc1 as a KVM guest.

This patch increases the interleave factor for parallel AES modes
to 4x. This improves performance on Cortex-A57 by ~35%. This is
due to the 3-cycle latency of AES instructions on the A57's
relatively deep pipeline (compared to Cortex-A53 where the AES
instruction latency is only 2 cycles).
At the same time, disable inline expansion of the core AES functions,
as the performance benefit of this feature is negligible.
Measured on AMD Seattle (using tcrypt.ko mode=500 sec=1):

Caught during Trinity testing. The pte_modify does not allow
modification for PTE type bit. This cause the test to hang
the system. It is found that the PTE can't transit from an
inaccessible page (b00) to a valid page (b11) because the mask
does not allow it. This happens when a big block of mmaped
memory is set the PROT_NONE, then the a small piece is broken
off and set to PROT_WRITE | PROT_READ cause a huge page split.

The vdso implementation of clock_getres currently returns 0 (success)
whenever a null timespec is provided by the caller, regardless of the
clock id supplied.
This behavior is incorrect. It should fall back to syscall when an
unrecognized clock id is passed, even when the timespec argument is
null. This ensures that clock_getres always returns an error for
invalid clock ids.

For instrumenting global variables KASan will shadow memory backing memory
for modules. So on module loading we will need to allocate memory for
shadow and map it at address in shadow that corresponds to the address
allocated in module_alloc().
__vmalloc_node_range() could be used for this purpose, except it puts a
guard hole after allocated area. Guard hole in shadow memory should be a
problem because at some future point we might need to have a shadow memory
at address occupied by guard hole. So we could fail to allocate shadow
for module_alloc().
Now we have VM_NO_GUARD flag disabling guard page, so we need to pass into
__vmalloc_node_range(). Add new parameter 'vm_flags' to
__vmalloc_node_range() function.

Pull KVM update from Paolo Bonzini:
"Fairly small update, but there are some interesting new features.
Common:
Optional support for adding a small amount of polling on each HLT
instruction executed in the guest (or equivalent for other
architectures). This can improve latency up to 50% on some
scenarios (e.g. O_DSYNC writes or TCP_RR netperf tests). This
also has to be enabled manually for now, but the plan is to
auto-tune this in the future.
ARM/ARM64:
The highlights are support for GICv3 emulation and dirty page
tracking
s390:
Several optimizations and bugfixes. Also a first: a feature
exposed by KVM (UUID and long guest name in /proc/sysinfo) before
it is available in IBM's hypervisor! :)
MIPS:
Bugfixes.
x86:
Support for PML (page modification logging, a new feature in
Broadwell Xeons that speeds up dirty page tracking), nested
virtualization improvements (nested APICv---a nice optimization),
usual round of emulation fixes.
There is also a new option to reduce latency of the TSC deadline
timer in the guest; this needs to be tuned manually.
Some commits are common between this pull and Catalin's; I see you
have already included his tree.

the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.
Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.
Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.
It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

LKP has triggered a compiler warning after my recent patch "mm: account
pmd page tables to the process":
mm/mmap.c: In function 'exit_mmap':

The code:
> 2857 WARN_ON(mm_nr_pmds(mm) >
2858 round_up(FIRST_USER_ADDRESS, PUD_SIZE) >> PUD_SHIFT);
In this, on tile, we have FIRST_USER_ADDRESS defined as 0. round_up() has
the same type -- int. PUD_SHIFT.
I think the best way to fix it is to define FIRST_USER_ADDRESS as unsigned
long. On every arch for consistency.

Currently we have many duplicates in definitions around
follow_huge_addr(), follow_huge_pmd(), and follow_huge_pud(), so this
patch tries to remove the m. The basic idea is to put the default
implementation for these functions in mm/hugetlb.c as weak symbols
(regardless of CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETL B), and to implement
arch-specific code only when the arch needs it.
For follow_huge_addr(), only powerpc and ia64 have their own
implementation, and in all other architectures this function just returns
ERR_PTR(-EINVAL). So this patch sets returning ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) as
default.
As for follow_huge_(pmd|pud)(), if (pmd|pud)_huge() is implemented to
always return 0 in your architecture (like in ia64 or sparc,) it's never
called (the callsite is optimized away) no matter how implemented it is.
So in such architectures, we don't need arch-specific implementation.
In some architecture (like mips, s390 and tile,) their current
arch-specific follow_huge_(pmd|pud)() are effectively identical with the
common code, so this patch lets these architecture use the common code.
One exception is metag, where pmd_huge() could return non-zero but it
expects follow_huge_pmd() to always return NULL. This means that we need
arch-specific implementation which returns NULL. This behavior looks
strange to me (because non-zero pmd_huge() implies that the architecture
supports PMD-based hugepage, so follow_huge_pmd() can/should return some
relevant value,) but that's beyond this cleanup patch, so let's keep it.
Justification of non-trivial changes:
- in s390, follow_huge_pmd() checks !MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE at first, and this
patch removes the check. This is OK because we can assume MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE
is true when follow_huge_pmd() can be called (note that pmd_huge() has
the same check and always returns 0 for !MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE.)
- in s390 and mips, we use HPAGE_MASK instead of PMD_MASK as done in common
code. This patch forces these archs use PMD_MASK, but it's OK because
they are identical in both archs.
In s390, both of HPAGE_SHIFT and PMD_SHIFT are 20.
In mips, HPAGE_SHIFT is defined as (PAGE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT - 3) and
PMD_SHIFT is define as (PAGE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT + PTE_ORDER - 3), but
PTE_ORDER is always 0, so these are identical.

Merge misc updates from Andrew Morton:
"Bite-sized chunks this time, to avoid the MTA ratelimiting woes.
- fs/notify updates
- ocfs2
- some of MM"
That laconic "some MM" is mainly the removal of remap_file_pages(),
which is a big simplification of the VM, and which gets rid of a *lot*
of random cruft and special cases because we no longer support the
non-linear mappings that it used.
From a user interface perspective, nothing has changed, because the
remap_file_pages() syscall still exists, it's just done by emulating the
old behavior by creating a lot of individual small mappings instead of
one non-linear one.
The emulation is slower than the old "native" non-linear mappings, but
nobody really uses or cares about remap_file_pages(), and simplifying
the VM is a big advantage.

This patch introduces a new module parameter for the KVM module; when it
is present, KVM attempts a bit of polling on every HLT before scheduling
itself out via kvm_vcpu_block.
This parameter helps a lot for latency-bound workloads---in particular
I tested it with O_DSYNC writes with a battery-backed disk in the host.
In this case, writes are fast (because the data doesn't have to go all
the way to the platters) but they cannot be merged by either the host or
the guest. KVM's performance here is usually around 30% of bare metal,
or 50% if you use cache=directsync or cache=writethrough (these
parameters avoid that the guest sends pointless flush requests, and
at the same time they are not slow because of the battery-backed cache).
The bad performance happens because on every halt the host CPU decides
to halt itself too. When the interrupt comes, the vCPU thread is then
migrated to a new physical CPU, and in general the latency is horrible
because the vCPU thread has to be scheduled back in.
With this patch performance reaches 60-65% of bare metal and, more
important, 99% of what you get if you use idle=poll in the guest. This
means that the tunable gets rid of this particular bottleneck, and more
work can be done to improve performance in the kernel or QEMU.
Of course there is some price to pay; every time an otherwise idle vCPUs
is interrupted by an interrupt, it will poll unnecessarily and thus
impose a little load on the host. The above results were obtained with
a mostly random value of the parameter (500000), and the load was around
1.5-2.5% CPU usage on one of the host's core for each idle guest vCPU.
The patch also adds a new stat, /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/halt_successful_poll,
that can be used to tune the parameter. It counts how many HLT
instructions received an interrupt during the polling period; each
successful poll avoids that Linux schedules the VCPU thread out and back
in, and may also avoid a likely trip to C1 and back for the physical CPU.
While the VM is idle, a Linux 4 VCPU VM halts around 10 times per second.
Of these halts, almost all are failed polls. During the benchmark,
instead, basically all halts end within the polling period, except a more
or less constant stream of 50 per second coming from vCPUs that are not
running the benchmark. The wasted time is thus very low. Things may
be slightly different for Windows VMs, which have a ~10 ms timer tick.
The effect is also visible on Marcelo's recently-introduced latency
test for the TSC deadline timer. Though of course a non-RT kernel has
awful latency bounds, the latency of the timer is around 8000-10000 clock
cycles compared to 20000-120000 without setting halt_poll_ns. For the TSC
deadline timer, thus, the effect is both a smaller average latency and
a smaller variance.

When handling a fault in stage-2, we need to resync I$ and D$, just
to be sure we don't leave any old cache line behind.
That's very good, except that we do so using the *user* address.
Under heavy load (swapping like crazy), we may end up in a situation
where the page gets mapped in stage-2 while being unmapped from
userspace by another CPU.
At that point, the DC/IC instructions can generate a fault, which
we handle with kvm->mmu_lock held. The box quickly deadlocks, user
is unhappy.
Instead, perform this invalidation through the kernel mapping,
which is guaranteed to be present. The box is much happier, and so
am I.

Let's assume a guest has created an uncached mapping, and written
to that page. Let's also assume that the host uses a cache-coherent
IO subsystem. Let's finally assume that the host is under memory
pressure and starts to swap things out.
Before this "uncached" page is evicted, we need to make sure
we invalidate potential speculated, clean cache lines that are
sitting there, or the IO subsystem is going to swap out the
cached view, loosing the data that has been written directly
into memory.

Trying to emulate the behaviour of set/way cache ops is fairly
pointless, as there are too many ways we can end-up missing stuff.
Also, there is some system caches out there that simply ignore
set/way operations.
So instead of trying to implement them, let's convert it to VA ops,
and use them as a way to re-enable the trapping of VM ops. That way,
we can detect the point when the MMU/caches are turned off, and do
a full VM flush (which is what the guest was trying to do anyway).
This allows a 32bit zImage to boot on the APM thingy, and will
probably help bootloaders in general.

Paul Bolle pointed out that commit
d035fdfa27ac124bc8f94c3d7dc82ad069802170 ("arm64: Add Tegra132
support") included two Kconfig symbols that are now no-ops:
USB_ARCH_HAS_EHCI and HAVE_SMP. So, drop the two symbols.
This second version corrects a thinko in Paul Bolle's E-mail address.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mfleming/efi into x86/efi
Pull EFI updates from Matt Fleming:
" - Move efivarfs from the misc filesystem section to pseudo filesystem,
since that's a more logical and accurate place - Leif Lindholm
- Update efibootmgr URL in Kconfig help - Peter Jones
- Improve accuracy of EFI guid function names - Borislav Petkov
- Expose firmware platform size in sysfs for the benefit of EFI boot
loader installers and other utilities - Steve McIntyre
- Cleanup __init annotations for arm64/efi code - Ard Biesheuvel
- Mark the UIE as unsupported for rtc-efi - Ard Biesheuvel
- Fix memory leak in error code path of runtime map code - Dan Carpenter
- Improve robustness of get_memory_map() by removing assumptions on the
size of efi_memory_desc_t (which could change in future spec
versions) and querying the firmware instead of guessing about the
memmap size - Ard Biesheuvel
- Remove superfluous guid unparse calls - Ivan Khoronzhuk
- Delete unnecessary chosen@0 DT node FDT code since was duplicated
from code in drivers/of and is entirely unnecessary - Leif Lindholm
There's nothing super scary, mainly cleanups, and a merge from Ricardo who
kindly picked up some patches from the linux-efi mailing list while I
was out on annual leave in December.
Perhaps the biggest risk is the get_memory_map() change from Ard, which
changes the way that both the arm64 and x86 EFI boot stub build the
early memory map. It would be good to have it bake in linux-next for a
while.

Commit 523d6e9fae93 (arm64:mm: free the useless initial page table)
introduced a BUG_ON checking for the allocation type but it was
referring the early_alloc() function in the __init section. This patch
changes the check to slab_is_available() and also relaxes the BUG to a
WARN_ON_ONCE.

Alternate macro mode is not a property of a macro definition, but a
gas runtime state that alters the way macros are expanded for ever
after (until .noaltmacro is seen).
This means that subsequent assembly code that calls other macros can
break if fpsimdmacros.h is included.
Since these instruction sequences are simple (if dull -- but in a
good way), this patch solves the problem by simply expanding the
.irp loops. The pre-existing fpsimd_{save,restore} macros weren't
rolled with .irp anyway and the sequences affected are short, so
this change restores consistency at little cost.

The {pgd,pud,pmd}_bad family of macros have slightly fuzzy
cross-architecture semantics, and seem to imply a populated entry that
is not a next-level table, rather than a particular type of entry (e.g.
a section map).
In arm64 code, for those cases where we care about whether an entry is a
section mapping, we can instead use the {pud,pmd}_sect macros to
explicitly check for this case. This helps to document precisely what we
care about, making the code easier to read, and allows for future
relaxation of the *_bad macros to check for other "bad" entries.
To that end this patch updates the table dumping and initial table setup
to check for section mappings with {pud,pmd}_sect, and adds/restores
BUG_ON(*_bad((*p)) checks after we've handled the *_sect and *_none
cases so as to catch remaining "bad" cases.
In the fault handling code, show_pte is left with *_bad checks as it
only cares about whether it can walk the next level table, and this path
is used for both kernel and userspace fault handling. The former case
will be followed by a die() where we'll report the address that
triggered the fault, which can be useful context for debugging.
