boot/compressed/misc.c is used for bzImage in 64bit and 32bit, and
cmd_line_ptr could point to buffer that is above 4g, cmd_line_ptr
should be 64bit otherwise high 32bit will be capped out.
So need to change data type to unsigned long, that will be 64bit get
correct address of command line buffer.
And it is still ok with 32bit bzImage, because unsigned long on 32bit kernel
is still 32bit.

cmdline.c::__cmdline_find_option... are shared between 16-bit setup code
and 32/64 bit decompressor code.
for 32/64 only path via kexec, we should not check if ptr is less 1M.
as those cmdline could be put above 1M, or even 4G.
Move out accessible checking out of __cmdline_find_option()
So decompressor in misc.c can parse cmdline correctly.

There are several places to find ramdisk information early for reserving

They are the same, could move them out from head32/64.c to setup.c.
We are using memblock, and it could handle overlapping properly, so
we don't need to reserve some at first to hold the location, and just
need to make sure we reserve them before we are using memblock to find
free mem to use.

We only map a single 2 MiB page per #PF, even though we should be able
to do this a full gigabyte at a time with no additional memory cost.
This is a workaround for a broken AMD reference BIOS (and its
derivatives in shipping system) which maps a large chunk of memory as
WB in the MTRR system but will #MC if the processor wanders off and
tries to prefetch that memory, which can happen any time the memory is
mapped in the TLB.

Linear mode (CR0.PG = 0) is mutually exclusive with 64-bit mode; all
64-bit code has to use page tables. This makes it awkward before we
have first set up properly all-covering page tables to access objects
that are outside the static kernel range.
So far we have dealt with that simply by mapping a fixed amount of
low memory, but that fails in at least two upcoming use cases:
1. We will support load and run kernel, struct boot_params, ramdisk,
command line, etc. above the 4 GiB mark.
2. need to access ramdisk early to get microcode to update that as
early possible.
We could use early_iomap to access them too, but it will make code to
messy and hard to be unified with 32 bit.
Hence, set up a #PF table and use a fixed number of buffers to set up
page tables on demand. If the buffers fill up then we simply flush
them and start over. These buffers are all in __initdata, so it does
not increase RAM usage at runtime.
Thus, with the help of the #PF handler, we can set the final kernel
mapping from blank, and switch to init_level4_pgt later.
During the switchover in head_64.S, before #PF handler is available,
we use three pages to handle kernel crossing 1G, 512G boundaries with
sharing page by playing games with page aliasing: the same page is
mapped twice in the higher-level tables with appropriate wraparound.
The kernel region itself will be properly mapped; other mappings may
be spurious.
early_make_pgtable is using kernel high mapping address to access pages
to set page table.
-v4: Add phys_base offset to make kexec happy, and add
init_mapping_kernel() - Yinghai
-v5: fix compiling with xen, and add back ident level3 and level2 for xen
also move back init_level4_pgt from BSS to DATA again.
because we have to clear it anyway. - Yinghai
-v6: switch to init_level4_pgt in init_mem_mapping. - Yinghai
-v7: remove not needed clear_page for init_level4_page
it is with fill 512,8,0 already in head_64.S - Yinghai
-v8: we need to keep that handler alive until init_mem_mapping and don't
let early_trap_init to trash that early #PF handler.
So split early_trap_pf_init out and move it down. - Yinghai
-v9: switchover only cover kernel space instead of 1G so could avoid
touch possible mem holes. - Yinghai
-v11: change far jmp back to far return to initial_code, that is needed
to fix failure that is reported by Konrad on AMD systems. - Yinghai

We want to support struct boot_params (formerly known as the
zero-page, or real-mode data) above the 4 GiB mark. We will have #PF
handler to set page table for not accessible ram early, but want to
limit it before x86_64_start_reservations to limit the code change to
native path only.
Also we will need the ramdisk info in struct boot_params to access the microcode
blob in ramdisk in x86_64_start_kernel, so copy struct boot_params early makes
it accessing ramdisk info simple.

It is simple version for kernel_physical_mapping_init.
it will work to build one page table that will be used later.
Use mapping_info to control

2. if PMD is EXEC,
3. if pgd is with kernel low mapping or ident mapping.
Will use to replace some local versions in kexec, hibernation and etc.

Trampoline code is executed by APs with kernel low mapping on 64bit.
We need to set trampoline code to EXEC early before we boot APs.
Found the problem after switching to #PF handler set page table,
and we do not set initial kernel low mapping with EXEC anymore in
arch/x86/kernel/head_64.S.
Change to use early_initcall instead that will make sure trampoline
will have EXEC set.

Just like the way we calculate next for pud and pmd, aka round down and
add size.
Also, do not do boundary-checking with 'next', and just pass 'end' down
to phys_pud_init() instead. Because the loop in phys_pud_init() stops at
PTRS_PER_PUD and thus can handle a possibly bigger 'end' properly.

During debugging loading kernel above 4G, found that one page is not used
in pre-allocated BRK area for early page allocation.
pgt_buf_top is address that can not be used, so should check if that new
end is above that top, otherwise last page will not be used.
Fix that checking and also add print out for allocation from pre-allocated
BRK area to catch possible bugs later.
But after we get back that page for pgt, it tiggers one bug in pgt allocation
with xen: We need to avoid to use page as pgt to map range that is
overlapping with that pgt page.
Add checking about overlapping, when it happens, use memblock allocation
instead. That fixes crash on Xen PV guest with 2G that Stefan found.

Define the 2.12 bzImage boot protocol: add xloadflags and additional
fields to allow the command line, initramfs and struct boot_params to
live above the 4 GiB mark.
The xloadflags now communicates if this is a 64-bit kernel with the
legacy 64-bit entry point and which of the EFI handover entry points
are supported.
Avoid adding new read flags to loadflags because of claimed
bootloaders testing the whole byte for == 1 to determine bzImageness
at least until the issue can be researched further.
This is based on patches by Yinghai Lu and David Woodhouse.

putreg() assumes that the tracee is not running and pt_regs_access() can
safely play with its stack. However a killed tracee can return from
ptrace_stop() to the low-level asm code and do RESTORE_REST, this means
that debugger can actually read/modify the kernel stack until the tracee
does SAVE_REST again.
set_task_blockstep() can race with SIGKILL too and in some sense this
race is even worse, the very fact the tracee can be woken up breaks the
logic.
As Linus suggested we can clear TASK_WAKEKILL around the arch_ptrace()
call, this ensures that nobody can ever wakeup the tracee while the
debugger looks at it. Not only this fixes the mentioned problems, we
can do some cleanups/simplifications in arch_ptrace() paths.
Probably ptrace_unfreeze_traced() needs more callers, for example it
makes sense to make the tracee killable for oom-killer before
access_process_vm().
While at it, add the comment into may_ptrace_stop() to explain why
ptrace_stop() still can't rely on SIGKILL and signal_pending_state().

This fixes CVE-2013-0190 / XSA-40
There has been an error on the xen_failsafe_callback path for failed
iret, which causes the stack pointer to be wrong when entering the
iret_exc error path. This can result in the kernel crashing.
In the classic kernel case, the relevant code looked a little like:
popl %eax # Error code from hypervisor
jz 5f
addl $16,%esp
jmp iret_exc # Hypervisor said iret fault
5: addl $16,%esp
# Hypervisor said segment selector fault
Here, there are two identical addls on either option of a branch which
appears to have been optimised by hoisting it above the jz, and
converting it to an lea, which leaves the flags register unaffected.
In the PVOPS case, the code looks like:
popl_cfi %eax # Error from the hypervisor
lea 16(%esp),%esp # Add $16 before choosing fault path
CFI_ADJUST_CFA_OFFSET -16
jz 5f
addl $16,%esp # Incorrectly adjust %esp again
jmp iret_exc
It is possible unprivileged userspace applications to cause this
behaviour, for example by loading an LDT code selector, then changing
the code selector to be not-present. At this point, there is a race
condition where it is possible for the hypervisor to return back to
userspace from an interrupt, fault on its own iret, and inject a
failsafe_callback into the kernel.
This bug has been present since the introduction of Xen PVOPS support
in commit 5ead97c84 (xen: Core Xen implementation), in 2.6.23.

This patch is brought to you by the letter 'H'.
Commit 20b279 breaks compatiblity with older perf binaries when run with
precise modifier (:p or :pp) by requiring the exclude_guest attribute to be
set. Older binaries default exclude_guest to 0 (ie., wanting guest-based
samples) unless host only profiling is requested (:H modifier). The workaround
for older binaries is to add H to the modifier list (e.g., -e cycles:ppH -
toggles exclude_guest to 1). This was deemed unacceptable by Linus:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/12/570
Between family in town and the fresh snow in Breckenridge there is no time left
to be working on the proper fix for this over the holidays. In the New Year I
have more pressing problems to resolve -- like some memory leaks in perf which
are proving to be elusive -- although the aforementioned snow is probably why
they are proving to be elusive. Either way I do not have any spare time to work
on this and from the time I have managed to spend on it the solution is more
difficult than just moving to a new exclude_guest flag (does not work) or
flipping the logic to include_guest (which is not as trivial as one would
think).
So, two options: silently force exclude_guest on as suggested by Gleb which
means no impact to older perf binaries or revert the original patch which
caused the breakage.
This patch does the latter -- reverts the original patch that introduced the
regression. The problem can be revisited in the future as time allows.

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev*
markings need to be removed.
This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitconst,
and __devexit from these drivers.
Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

Commit 284f5f9 was intended to disable the "only_one_child()" optimization
on Stratus ftServer systems, but its DMI check is wrong. It looks for
DMI_SYS_VENDOR that contains "ftServer", when it should look for
DMI_SYS_VENDOR containing "Stratus" and DMI_PRODUCT_NAME containing
"ftServer".
Tested on Stratus ftServer 6400.

Pull signal handling cleanups from Al Viro:
"sigaltstack infrastructure + conversion for x86, alpha and um,
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE infrastructure.
Note that there are several conflicts between "unify
SS_ONSTACK/SS_DISABLE definitions" and UAPI patches in mainline;
resolution is trivial - just remove definitions of SS_ONSTACK and
SS_DISABLED from arch/*/uapi/asm/signal.h; they are all identical and
include/uapi/linux/signal.h contains the unified variant."
Fixed up conflicts as per Al.

With the current code, the condition in the if() doesn't make much sense due to
precedence of operators.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu
Pull IOMMU updates from Joerg Roedel:
"A few new features this merge-window. The most important one is
probably, that dma-debug now warns if a dma-handle is not checked with
dma_mapping_error by the device driver. This requires minor changes
to some architectures which make use of dma-debug. Most of these
changes have the respective Acks by the Arch-Maintainers.
Besides that there are updates to the AMD IOMMU driver for refactor
the IOMMU-Groups support and to make sure it does not trigger a
hardware erratum.
The OMAP changes (for which I pulled in a branch from Tony Lindgren's
tree) have a conflict in linux-next with the arm-soc tree. The
conflict is in the file arch/arm/mach-omap2/clock44xx_data.c which is
deleted in the arm-soc tree. It is safe to delete the file too so
solve the conflict. Similar changes are done in the arm-soc tree in
the common clock framework migration. A missing hunk from the patch
in the IOMMU tree will be submitted as a seperate patch when the
merge-window is closed."

Compat counterpart of current_user_stack_pointer(); for most of the biarch
architectures those two are identical, but e.g. arm64 and arm use different
registers for stack pointer...
Note that amd64 variants of current_user_stack_pointer/compat_user_stack_pointer
do *not* rely on pt_regs having been through FIXUP_TOP_OF_STACK.

All architectures have
CONFIG_GENERIC_KERNEL_THREAD
CONFIG_GENERIC_KERNEL_EXECVE
__ARCH_WANT_SYS_EXECVE
None of them have __ARCH_WANT_KERNEL_EXECVE and there are only two callers
of kernel_execve() (which is a trivial wrapper for do_execve() now) left.
Kill the conditionals and make both callers use do_execve().

"Most of the rest of MM, plus a few dribs and drabs.
I still have quite a few irritating patches left around: ones with
dubious testing results, lack of review, ones which should have gone
via maintainer trees but the maintainers are slack, etc.
I need to be more activist in getting these things wrapped up outside
the merge window, but they're such a PITA."
