PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO is a generic ptrace API that lets ptracer obtain
details of the syscall the tracee is blocked in.
There are two reasons for a special syscall-related ptrace request.
Firstly, with the current ptrace API there are cases when ptracer cannot
retrieve necessary information about syscalls. Some examples include:
* The notorious int-0x80-from-64-bit-task issue. See [1] for details.
In short, if a 64-bit task performs a syscall through int 0x80, its
tracer has no reliable means to find out that the syscall was, in
fact, a compat syscall, and misidentifies it.
* Syscall-enter-stop and syscall-exit-stop look the same for the
tracer. Common practice is to keep track of the sequence of
ptrace-stops in order not to mix the two syscall-stops up. But it is
not as simple as it looks; for example, strace had a (just recently
fixed) long-standing bug where attaching strace to a tracee that is
performing the execve system call led to the tracer identifying the
following syscall-exit-stop as syscall-enter-stop, which messed up
all the state tracking.
* Since the introduction of commit 84d77d3f06e7 ("ptrace: Don't allow
accessing an undumpable mm"), both PTRACE_PEEKDATA and
process_vm_readv become unavailable when the process dumpable flag is
cleared. On such architectures as ia64 this results in all syscall
arguments being unavailable for the tracer.
Secondly, ptracers also have to support a lot of arch-specific code for
obtaining information about the tracee. For some architectures, this
requires a ptrace(PTRACE_PEEKUSER, ...) invocation for every syscall
argument and return value.
PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO returns the following structure:
struct ptrace_syscall_info {
__u8 op; /* PTRACE_SYSCALL_INFO_* */
__u32 arch __attribute__((__aligned__(sizeof(__u32))));
__u64 instruction_pointer;
__u64 stack_pointer;
union {
struct {
__u64 nr;
__u64 args[6];
} entry;
struct {
__s64 rval;
__u8 is_error;
} exit;
struct {
__u64 nr;
__u64 args[6];
__u32 ret_data;
} seccomp;
};
};
The structure was chosen according to [2], except for the following
changes:
* seccomp substructure was added as a superset of entry substructure
* the type of nr field was changed from int to __u64 because syscall
numbers are, as a practical matter, 64 bits
* stack_pointer field was added along with instruction_pointer field
since it is readily available and can save the tracer from extra
PTRACE_GETREGS/PTRACE_GETREGSET calls
* arch is always initialized to aid with tracing system calls such as
execve()
* instruction_pointer and stack_pointer are always initialized so they
could be easily obtained for non-syscall stops
* a boolean is_error field was added along with rval field, this way
the tracer can more reliably distinguish a return value from an error
value
strace has been ported to PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO. Starting with
release 4.26, strace uses PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO API as the preferred
mechanism of obtaining syscall information.

This patch (of 7):
All syscall_get_*() and syscall_set_*() functions must be defined as
static inline as on all other architectures, otherwise asm/syscall.h
cannot be included in more than one compilation unit.
This bug has to be fixed in order to extend the generic
ptrace API with PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO request.

The nds32 implementation of pte_alloc_one_kernel() differs from the
generic in the use of __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL flag, which is removed after the
conversion.
The nds32 version of pte_alloc_one() missed the call to
pgtable_page_ctor() and also used __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL. Switching it to
use generic __pte_alloc_one() for the PTE page allocation ensures that
page table constructor is run and the user page tables are allocated with
__GFP_ACCOUNT.
The conversion to the generic version of pte_free_kernel() removes the
NULL check for pte.
The pte_free() version on nds32 is identical to the generic one and can be
simply dropped.

Pull force_sig() argument change from Eric Biederman:
"A source of error over the years has been that force_sig has taken a
task parameter when it is only safe to use force_sig with the current
task.
The force_sig function is built for delivering synchronous signals
such as SIGSEGV where the userspace application caused a synchronous
fault (such as a page fault) and the kernel responded with a signal.
Because the name force_sig does not make this clear, and because the
force_sig takes a task parameter the function force_sig has been
abused for sending other kinds of signals over the years. Slowly those
have been fixed when the oopses have been tracked down.
This set of changes fixes the remaining abusers of force_sig and
carefully rips out the task parameter from force_sig and friends
making this kind of error almost impossible in the future"

Commit 5318321d367c ("samples: disable CONFIG_SAMPLES for UML") used
a big hammer to fix the build errors under the samples/ directory.
Only some samples actually include uapi headers from usr/include.
Introduce CONFIG_HEADERS_INSTALL since 'depends on HEADERS_INSTALL' is
clearer than 'depends on !UML'. If this option is enabled, uapi headers
are installed before starting directory descending.
I added 'depends on HEADERS_INSTALL' to per-sample CONFIG options.
This allows UML to compile some samples.

there are written at different times: some use markdown,
some use their own peculiar logic to split sections.
Convert everything to ReST without affecting too much
the author's style and avoiding adding uneeded markups.
The conversion is actually:
- add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
- fix tables markups;
- add some lists markups;
- mark literal blocks;
- adjust title markups.

Until recently, if KBUILD_DEFCONFIG was not set by the arch Makefile,
the default path arch/*/defconfig was used.
The last users of the default are gone by the following commits:
- Commit f3e20ad67b4c ("s390: move arch/s390/defconfig to
arch/s390/configs/defconfig")
- Commit 986a13769c4b ("alpha: move arch/alpha/defconfig to

Let's set arch/*/configs/defconfig as a new default. This saves
KBUILD_DEFCONFIG for some architectures.

In order for kernel to capture each denormalized output, the UDF
trapping enable bit is always raised in $fpcsr. Because underflow case will
issue not an underflow exception but also an inexact exception, it causes
that the IEX, IEX cumulative exception, flag in $fpcsr to be raised in each
denormalized output handling. To make the emulation transparent to the
user, the emulator needs to clear the IEX flag in $fpcsr if the result is a
denormalized number. However, if the IEX flag has been raised before this
floating point emulation, this cleanup may be incorrect. To avoid the IEX
flags in $fpcsr be raised in each denormalized output handling, the IEX
trap shall be always enabled.

force_sig_fault_to_task.
The callers have been changed with the following emacs regular expression

clock_getres in the vDSO library has to preserve the same behaviour
of posix_get_hrtimer_res().
In particular, posix_get_hrtimer_res() does:
sec = 0;
ns = hrtimer_resolution;
and hrtimer_resolution depends on the enablement of the high
resolution timers that can happen either at compile or at run time.
Fix the nds32 vdso implementation of clock_getres keeping a copy of
hrtimer_resolution in vdso data and using that directly.

Patch series "provide a generic free_initmem implementation", v2.
Many architectures implement free_initmem() in exactly the same or very
similar way: they wrap the call to free_initmem_default() with sometimes
different 'poison' parameter.
These patches switch those architectures to use a generic implementation
that does free_initmem_default(POISON_FREE_INITMEM).
This was inspired by Christoph's patches for free_initrd_mem [1] and I
shamelessly copied changelog entries from his patches :)
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190213174621.29297-1-hch@lst.de/
This patch (of 2):
For most architectures free_initmem just a wrapper for the same
free_initmem_default(-1) call. Provide that as a generic implementation
marked __weak.

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
"We've got a reasonably broad set of audit patches for the v5.2 merge
window, the highlights are below:
- The biggest change, and the source of all the arch/* changes, is
the patchset from Dmitry to help enable some of the work he is
doing around PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO.
To be honest, including this in the audit tree is a bit of a
stretch, but it does help move audit a little further along towards
proper syscall auditing for all arches, and everyone else seemed to
agree that audit was a "good" spot for this to land (or maybe they
just didn't want to merge it? dunno.).
- We can now audit time/NTP adjustments.
- We continue the work to connect associated audit records into a
single event"

"Remove Mysterious Macro Intended to Obscure Weird Behaviours (mmiowb())
Remove mmiowb() from the kernel memory barrier API and instead, for
architectures that need it, hide the barrier inside spin_unlock() when
MMIO has been performed inside the critical section.
The only relatively recent changes have been addressing review
comments on the documentation, which is in a much better shape thanks
to the efforts of Ben and Ingo.
I was initially planning to split this into two pull requests so that
you could run the coccinelle script yourself, however it's been plain
sailing in linux-next so I've just included the whole lot here to keep
things simple"
