- a few misc things
- kexec updates
- DMA-mapping updates to better support networking DMA operations
- IPC updates
- various MM changes to improve DAX fault handling
- lots of radix-tree changes, mainly to the test suite. All leading up
to reimplementing the IDA/IDR code to be a wrapper layer over the

This change allows us to pass DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC which allows us to
avoid invoking cache line invalidation if the driver will just handle it
via a sync_for_cpu or sync_for_device call.

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"After a lot of discussion and work we have finally reachanged a basic
understanding of what is necessary to make unprivileged mounts safe in
the presence of EVM and IMA xattrs which the last commit in this
series reflects. While technically it is a revert the comments it adds
are important for people not getting confused in the future. Clearing
up that confusion allows us to seriously work on unprivileged mounts
of fuse in the next development cycle.
The rest of the fixes in this set are in the intersection of user
namespaces, ptrace, and exec. I started with the first fix which
started a feedback cycle of finding additional issues during review
and fixing them. Culiminating in a fix for a bug that has been present
since at least Linux v1.0.
Potentially these fixes were candidates for being merged during the rc
cycle, and are certainly backport candidates but enough little things
turned up during review and testing that I decided they should be
handled as part of the normal development process just to be certain
there were not any great surprises when it came time to backport some
of these fixes"

The main changes were:
- Rework and generalize the mutex code to remove per arch mutex

- Add vCPU preemption support: add an interface to query the
preemption status of vCPUs and use it in locking primitives - this
optimizes paravirt performance. (Pan Xinhui, Juergen Gross,
Christian Borntraeger)
- Introduce cpu_relax_yield() and remov cpu_relax_lowlatency() to
clean up and improve the s390 lock yielding machinery and its core
kernel impact. (Christian Borntraeger)
- Micro-optimize mutexes some more. (Waiman Long)
- Reluctantly add the to-be-deprecated mutex_trylock_recursive()
interface on a temporary basis, to give the DRM code more time to
get rid of its locking hacks. Any other users will be NAK-ed on
sight. (We turned off the deprecation warning for the time being to
not pollute the build log.) (Peter Zijlstra)

The sync_cmos_clock function in kernel/time/ntp.c first tries to update
the internal clock of the cpu by calling the "update_persistent_clock64"
architecture specific function. If this returns -ENODEV, it then tries
to update an external RTC using "rtc_set_ntp_time".
On the mips architecture, the weak implementation of the underlying
function would return 0 if it wasn't overridden. This meant that the
sync_cmos_clock function would never try to update an external RTC
(if both CONFIG_GENERIC_CMOS_UPDATE and CONFIG_RTC_SYSTOHC are
configured)
Returning -ENODEV instead, means that an external RTC will be tried.

Couple conflicts resolved here:
1) In the MACB driver, a bug fix to properly initialize the
RX tail pointer properly overlapped with some changes
to support variable sized rings.
2) In XGBE we had a "CONFIG_PM" --> "CONFIG_PM_SLEEP" fix
overlapping with a reorganization of the driver to support
ACPI, OF, as well as PCI variants of the chip.
3) In 'net' we had several probe error path bug fixes to the
stmmac driver, meanwhile a lot of this code was cleaned up
and reorganized in 'net-next'.
4) The cls_flower classifier obtained a helper function in
'net-next' called __fl_delete() and this overlapped with
Daniel Borkamann's bug fix to use RCU for object destruction
in 'net'. It also overlapped with Jiri's change to guard
the rhashtable_remove_fast() call with a check against
tc_skip_sw().
5) In mlx4, a revert bug fix in 'net' overlapped with some
unrelated changes in 'net-next'.
6) In geneve, a stale header pointer after pskb_expand_head()
bug fix in 'net' overlapped with a large reorganization of
the same code in 'net-next'. Since the 'net-next' code no
longer had the bug in question, there was nothing to do
other than to simply take the 'net-next' hunks.

This patch exports the sender chronograph stats via the socket
SO_TIMESTAMPING channel. Currently we can instrument how long a
particular application unit of data was queued in TCP by tracking
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SOFTWARE and SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SCHED. Having
these sender chronograph stats exported simultaneously along with
these timestamps allow further breaking down the various sender
limitation. For example, a video server can tell if a particular
chunk of video on a connection takes a long time to deliver because
TCP was experiencing small receive window. It is not possible to
tell before this patch without packet traces.
To prepare these stats, the user needs to set
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS and SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY flags
while requesting other SOF_TIMESTAMPING TX timestamps. When the
timestamps are available in the error queue, the stats are returned
in a separate control message of type SCM_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS,
in a list of TLVs (struct nlattr) of types: TCP_NLA_BUSY_TIME,
TCP_NLA_RWND_LIMITED, TCP_NLA_SNDBUF_LIMITED. Unit is microsecond.

Since MIPSr6 the Wired register is split into 2 fields, with the upper
16 bits of the register indicating a limit on the value that the wired
entry count in the bottom 16 bits of the register can take. This means
that simply reading the wired register doesn't get us a valid TLB entry
index any longer, and we instead need to retrieve only the lower 16 bits
of the register. Introduce a new num_wired_entries() function which does
this on MIPSr6 or higher and simply returns the value of the wired
register on older architecture revisions, and make use of it when
reading the number of wired entries.
Since commit e710d6668309 ("MIPS: tlb-r4k: If there are wired entries,
don't use TLBINVF") we have been using a non-zero number of wired
entries to determine whether we should avoid use of the tlbinvf
instruction (which would invalidate wired entries) and instead loop over
TLB entries in local_flush_tlb_all(). This loop begins with the number
of wired entries, or before this patch some large bogus TLB index on
MIPSr6 systems. Thus since the aforementioned commit some MIPSr6 systems
with FTLBs have been prone to leaving stale address translations in the
FTLB & crashing in various weird & wonderful ways when we later observe
the wrong memory.

It is the reasonable expectation that if an executable file is not
readable there will be no way for a user without special privileges to
read the file. This is enforced in ptrace_attach but if ptrace
is already attached before exec there is no enforcement for read-only
executables.
As the only way to read such an mm is through access_process_vm
spin a variant called ptrace_access_vm that will fail if the
target process is not being ptraced by the current process, or
the current process did not have sufficient privileges when ptracing
began to read the target processes mm.
In the ptrace implementations replace access_process_vm by
ptrace_access_vm. There remain several ptrace sites that still use
access_process_vm as they are reading the target executables
instructions (for kernel consumption) or register stacks. As such it
does not appear necessary to add a permission check to those calls.
This bug has always existed in Linux.

For spinning loops people do often use barrier() or cpu_relax().
For most architectures cpu_relax and barrier are the same, but on
some architectures cpu_relax can add some latency.
For example on power,sparc64 and arc, cpu_relax can shift the CPU
towards other hardware threads in an SMT environment.
On s390 cpu_relax does even more, it uses an hypercall to the
hypervisor to give up the timeslice.
In contrast to the SMT yielding this can result in larger latencies.
In some places this latency is unwanted, so another variant
"cpu_relax_lowlatency" was introduced. Before this is used in more
and more places, lets revert the logic and provide a cpu_relax_yield
that can be called in places where yielding is more important than
latency. By default this is the same as cpu_relax on all architectures.

Since we already have a devicetree node for the jz4740-rtc driver, we
don't have to probe it from platform code.
Besides, using the jz4740-rtc driver as the power controller for the
qi_lb60 platform allows us to remove the jz4740 platform power-off code,
since this is the only jz4740-based board upstream.

When low memory doesn't reach HIGHMEM_START (e.g. up to 256MB at PA=0 is
common) and highmem is present above HIGHMEM_START (e.g. on Malta the
RAM overlayed by the IO region is aliased at PA=0x90000000), max_low_pfn
will be initially calculated very large and then clipped down to
HIGHMEM_START.
This causes crashes when reading /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap
(i.e. CONFIG_IDLE_PAGE_TRACKING=y) when highmem is disabled. pfn_valid()
will compare against max_mapnr which is derived from max_low_pfn when
there is no highend_pfn set up, and will return true for PFNs right up
to HIGHMEM_START, even though they are beyond the end of low memory and
no page structs will actually exist for these PFNs.
This is fixed by skipping high memory regions when initially calculating
max_low_pfn if highmem is disabled, so it doesn't get clipped too high.
We also clip regions which overlap the highmem boundary when highmem is
disabled, so that max_pfn doesn't extend into highmem either.

Complement commit 80cbfad79096 ("MIPS: Correct MIPS I FP context
layout") and correct the way Floating Point General registers are stored
in a signal context with MIPS I hardware.
Use the S.D and L.D assembly macros to have pairs of SWC1 instructions
and pairs of LWC1 instructions produced, respectively, in an arrangement
which makes the memory representation of floating-point data passed
compatible with that used by hardware SDC1 and LDC1 instructions, where
available, regardless of the hardware endianness used. This matches the
layout used by r4k_fpu.S, ensuring run-time compatibility for MIPS I
software across all o32 hardware platforms.
Define an EX2 macro to handle exceptions from both hardware instructions
implicitly produced from S.D and L.D assembly macros.

Fix a regression introduced with commit 2db9ca0a3551 ("MIPS: Use struct
mips_abi offsets to save FP context") for MIPS I/I FP signal contexts,
by converting save/restore code to the updated internal API. Start FGR
offsets from 0 rather than SC_FPREGS from $a0 and use $a1 rather than
the offset of SC_FPC_CSR from $a0 for the Floating Point Control/Status
Register (FCSR).
Document the new internal API and adjust assembly code formatting for
consistency.

The `sc_fpc_eir' slot is unused according to our current ABI and the FIR

Sanitize FCSR Cause bit handling, following a trail of past attempts:
* commit 4249548454f7 ("MIPS: ptrace: Fix FP context restoration FCSR
regression"),
* commit 443c44032a54 ("MIPS: Always clear FCSR cause bits after
emulation"),
* commit 64bedffe4968 ("MIPS: Clear [MSA]FPE CSR.Cause after
notify_die()"),
* commit b1442d39fac2 ("MIPS: Prevent user from setting FCSR cause
bits"),
* commit b54d2901517d ("Properly handle branch delay slots in connection
with signals.").
Specifically do not mask these bits out in ptrace(2) processing and send
a SIGFPE signal instead whenever a matching pair of an FCSR Cause and
Enable bit is seen as execution of an affected context is about to
resume. Only then clear Cause bits, and even then do not clear any bits
that are set but masked with the respective Enable bits. Adjust Cause
bit clearing throughout code likewise, except within the FPU emulator
proper where they are set according to IEEE 754 exceptions raised as the
operation emulated executed. Do so so that any IEEE 754 exceptions
subject to their default handling are recorded like with operations
executed by FPU hardware.

Since commit 4bcc595ccd80 ("printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing

pretty unreadable due to the lack of KERN_CONT markers. Use pr_cont to

The KASLR code requires that the plat_get_fdt() function return the
address of the device tree, and it must be available early in the boot,
before prom_init() is called. Move the code determining the address of
the device tree into plat_get_fdt, and call that from prom_init().
The fdt pointer will be set up by plat_get_fdt() called from
relocate_kernel initially and once the relocated kernel has started,
prom_init() will use it again to determine the address in the relocated
image.

If platform code returns a NULL pointer to the FDT, initial_boot_params
will not get set to a valid pointer and attempting to find the /chosen

Commit 10b6ea0959de ("MIPS: Malta: Use syscon-reboot driver to reboot")
converted the Malta board to use the generic syscon-reboot driver to
handle reboots, but incorrectly used the value 0x4d rather than 0x42 as
the magic to write to the reboot register.
I also incorrectly believed that syscon/regmap would default to native
endianness, but this isn't the case. Force this by specifying with a
native-endian property in the devicetree.

Provide a default implementation of mips_cpc_default_phys_base() which
simply returns 0, and adjust mips_cpc_phys_base() to allow for
mips_cpc_default_phys_base() returning 0. This allows kernels which
include CPC support to be built without platform code & simply ignore
the CPC if it wasn't already enabled by the bootloader.
This fixes link failures such as the following from generic defconfigs:

The advancing of the PC when completing an MMIO load is done before
re-entering the guest, i.e. before restoring the guest ASID. However if
the load is in a branch delay slot it may need to access guest code to
read the prior branch instruction. This isn't safe in TLB mapped code at
the moment, nor in the future when we'll access unmapped guest segments
using direct user accessors too, as it could read the branch from host
user memory instead.
Therefore calculate the resume PC in advance while we're still in the
right context and save it in the new vcpu->arch.io_pc (replacing the no
longer needed vcpu->arch.pending_load_cause), and restore it on MMIO
completion.

The ERET instruction to return from exception is used for returning from
exception level (Status.EXL) and error level (Status.ERL). If both bits
are set however we should be returning from ERL first, as ERL can
interrupt EXL, for example when an NMI is taken. KVM however checks EXL
first.
Fix the order of the checks to match the pseudocode in the instruction
set manual.

kvm_mips_check_asids() runs before entering the guest and performs lazy
regeneration of host ASID for guest usermode, using last_user_gasid to
track the last guest ASID in the VCPU that was used by guest usermode on
any host CPU.
last_user_gasid is reset after performing the lazy ASID regeneration on
the current CPU, and by kvm_arch_vcpu_load() if the host ASID for guest
usermode is regenerated due to staleness (to cancel outstanding lazy
ASID regenerations). Unfortunately neither case handles SMP hosts
correctly:
- When the lazy ASID regeneration is performed it should apply to all
CPUs (as last_user_gasid does), so reset the ASID on other CPUs to
zero to trigger regeneration when the VCPU is next loaded on those
CPUs.
- When the ASID is found to be stale on the current CPU, we should not
cancel lazy ASID regenerations globally, so drop the reset of
last_user_gasid altogether here.
Both cases would require a guest ASID change and two host CPU migrations
(and in the latter case one of the CPUs to start a new ASID cycle)
before guest usermode could potentially access stale user pages from a
previously running ASID in the same VCPU.

Merge the gup_flags cleanups from Lorenzo Stoakes:
"This patch series adjusts functions in the get_user_pages* family such
that desired FOLL_* flags are passed as an argument rather than
implied by flags.
The purpose of this change is to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit
so it is easier to grep for and clearer to callers that this flag is
being used. The use of FOLL_FORCE is an issue as it overrides missing
VM_READ/VM_WRITE flags for the VMA whose pages we are reading
from/writing to, which can result in surprising behaviour.
The patch series came out of the discussion around commit 38e088546522
("mm: check VMA flags to avoid invalid PROT_NONE NUMA balancing"),
which addressed a BUG_ON() being triggered when a page was faulted in
with PROT_NONE set but having been overridden by FOLL_FORCE.
do_numa_page() was run on the assumption the page _must_ be one marked
for NUMA node migration as an actual PROT_NONE page would have been
dealt with prior to this code path, however FOLL_FORCE introduced a
situation where this assumption did not hold.
See
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=147585445805166
for the patch proposal"
Additionally, there's a fix for an ancient bug related to FOLL_FORCE and
FOLL_WRITE by me.
[ This branch was rebased recently to add a few more acked-by's and
reviewed-by's ]
* gup_flag-cleanups:
mm: replace access_process_vm() write parameter with gup_flags
mm: replace access_remote_vm() write parameter with gup_flags
mm: replace __access_remote_vm() write parameter with gup_flags
mm: replace get_user_pages_remote() write/force parameters with gup_flags
mm: replace get_user_pages() write/force parameters with gup_flags
mm: replace get_vaddr_frames() write/force parameters with gup_flags

This removes the 'write' argument from access_process_vm() and replaces
it with 'gup_flags' as use of this function previously silently implied
FOLL_FORCE, whereas after this patch callers explicitly pass this flag.
We make this explicit as use of FOLL_FORCE can result in surprising
behaviour (and hence bugs) within the mm subsystem.
