arm64 updates for 4.10:
- struct thread_info moved off-stack (also touching
include/linux/thread_info.h and include/linux/restart_block.h)
- cpus_have_cap() reworked to avoid __builtin_constant_p() for static
key use (also touching drivers/irqchip/irq-gic-v3.c)
- Uprobes support (currently only for native 64-bit tasks)
- Emulation of kernel Privileged Access Never (PAN) using TTBR0_EL1
switching to a reserved page table
- CPU capacity information passing via DT or sysfs (used by the
scheduler)
- Support for systems without FP/SIMD (IOW, kernel avoids touching these
registers; there is no soft-float ABI, nor kernel emulation for
AArch64 FP/SIMD)
- Handling of hardware watchpoint with unaligned addresses, varied
lengths and offsets from base
- Use of the page table contiguous hint for kernel mappings
- Hugetlb fixes for sizes involving the contiguous hint
- Remove unnecessary I-cache invalidation in flush_cache_range()
- CNTHCTL_EL2 access fix for CPUs with VHE support (ARMv8.1)
- Boot-time checks for writable+executable kernel mappings
- Simplify asm/opcodes.h and avoid including the 32-bit ARM counterpart
and make the arm64 kernel headers self-consistent (Xen headers patch
merged separately)
- Workaround for broken .inst support in certain binutils versions

continues. Highlights include:
- Further work on PDF output, which remains a bit of a pain but should be
more solid now.
- Five more DocBook template files converted to Sphinx. Only 27 to go...
Lots of plain-text files have also been converted and integrated.
- Images in binary formats have been replaced with more source-friendly
versions.
- Various bits of organizational work, including the renaming of various

lib: radix-tree: check accounting of existing slot replacement users
The bug in khugepaged fixed earlier in this series shows that radix tree slot replacement is fragile; and it will become more so when not only NULL<->!NULL transitions need to be caught but transitions from and to exceptional entries as well. We need checks. Re-implement radix_tree_replace_slot() on top of the sanity-checked __radix_tree_replace(). This requires existing callers to also pass the radix tree root, but it'll warn us when somebody replaces slots with contents that need proper accounting (transitions between NULL entries, real entries, exceptional entries) and where a replacement through the slot pointer would corrupt the radix tree node counts.

tools/testing/nvdimm: unit test acpi_nfit_ctl()
A recent flurry of bug discoveries in the nfit driver's DSM marshalling routine has highlighted the fact that we do not have unit test coverage for this routine. Add a self-test of acpi_nfit_ctl() routine before probing the "nfit_test.0" device. This mocks stimulus to acpi_nfit_ctl() and if any of the tests fail "nfit_test.0" will be unavailable causing the rest of the tests to not run / fail. This unit test will also be a place to land reproductions of quirky BIOS behavior discovered in the field and ensure the kernel does not regress against implementations it has seen in practice.

bpf: Preserve const register type on const OR alu ops
Occasionally, clang (e.g. version 3.8.1) translates a sum between two constant operands using a BPF_OR instead of a BPF_ADD. The verifier is currently not handling this scenario, and the destination register type becomes UNKNOWN_VALUE even if it's still storing a constant. As a result, the destination register cannot be used as argument to a helper function expecting a ARG_CONST_STACK_*, limiting some use cases. Modify the verifier to handle this case, and add a few tests to make sure all combinations are supported, and stack boundaries are still verified even with BPF_OR.

This is a test to verify that bpf: fix states equal logic for varlen access actually fixed the problem. The problem was if the register we added to our map register was UNKNOWN in both the false and true branches and the only thing that changed was the range then we'd incorrectly assume that the true branch was valid, which it really wasnt.

bpf: fix multiple issues in selftest suite and samples
1) The test_lru_map and test_lru_dist fails building on my machine since
the sys/resource.h header is not included.
2) test_verifier fails in one test case where we try to call an invalid
function, since the verifier log output changed wrt printing function
names.
3) Current selftest suite code relies on sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF) for
retrieving the number of possible CPUs. This is broken at least in our
scenario and really just doesn't work.
glibc tries a number of things for retrieving _SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF.
First it tries equivalent of /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu[0-9]* | wc -l,
if that fails, depending on the config, it either tries to count CPUs
in /proc/cpuinfo, or returns the _SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN value instead.
If /proc/cpuinfo has some issue, it returns just 1 worst case. This
oddity is nothing new [1], but semantics/behaviour seems to be settled.
_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN will parse /sys/devices/system/cpu/online, if
that fails it looks into /proc/stat for cpuX entries, and if also that
fails for some reason, /proc/cpuinfo is consulted (and returning 1 if
unlikely all breaks down).
While that might match num_possible_cpus() from the kernel in some
cases, it's really not guaranteed with CPU hotplugging, and can result
in a buffer overflow since the array in user space could have too few
number of slots, and on perpcu map lookup, the kernel will write beyond
that memory of the value buffer.
William Tu reported such mismatches:
[...] The fact that sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF) != num_possible_cpu()
happens when CPU hotadd is enabled. For example, in Fusion when
setting vcpu.hotadd = "TRUE" or in KVM, setting ./qemu-system-x86_64
-smp 2, maxcpus=4 ... the num_possible_cpu() will be 4 and sysconf()
will be 2 [2]. [...]
Documentation/cputopology.txt says /sys/devices/system/cpu/possible
outputs cpu_possible_mask. That is the same as in num_possible_cpus(),
so first step would be to fix the _SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF calls with our
own implementation. Later, we could add support to bpf(2) for passing
a mask via CPU_SET(3), for example, to just select a subset of CPUs.
BPF samples code needs this fix as well (at least so that people stop
copying this). Thus, define bpf_num_possible_cpus() once in selftests
and import it from there for the sample code to avoid duplicating it.
The remaining sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF) in samples are unrelated.
After all three issues are fixed, the test suite runs fine again:
# make run_tests | grep self
selftests: test_verifier [PASS]
selftests: test_maps [PASS]
selftests: test_lru_map [PASS]
selftests: test_kmod.sh [PASS]

selftests: arm64: add test for unaligned/inexact watchpoint handling
ARM64 hardware expects 64bit aligned address for watchpoint invocation. However, it provides byte selection method to select any number of consecutive byte set within the range of 1-8. This patch adds support to test all such byte selection option for different memory write sizes. Patch also adds a test for handling the case when the cpu does not report an address which exactly matches one of the regions we have been watching (which is a situation permitted by the spec if an instruction accesses both watched and unwatched regions). The test was failing on a MSM8996pro before this patch series and is passing now.

The sample data file can be found here: https://github.com/iamkafai/bpf-lru The zipf.* data files have 100k numeric keys and the key is also ranged from 1 to 100k. The test_lru_dist outputs the number of unique keys (nr_unique). F.e. The following means, 61239 of them is unique out of 100k keys. nr_misses means it cannot be found in the LRU map, so nr_misses must be >= nr_unique. test_lru_dist also simulates a perfect LRU map as a comparison: [root@arch-fb-vm1 ~]# ~/devshare/fb-kernel/linux/samples/bpf/test_lru_dist \ /root/zipf.100k.a1_01.out 4000 1 ... test_parallel_lru_dist (map_type:9 map_flags:0x0): task:0 BPF LRU: nr_unique:23093(/100000) nr_misses:31603(/100000) task:0 Perfect LRU: nr_unique:23093(/100000 nr_misses:34328(/100000) .... test_parallel_lru_dist (map_type:9 map_flags:0x2): task:0 BPF LRU: nr_unique:23093(/100000) nr_misses:31710(/100000) task:0 Perfect LRU: nr_unique:23093(/100000 nr_misses:34328(/100000) [root@arch-fb-vm1 ~]# ~/devshare/fb-kernel/linux/samples/bpf/test_lru_dist \ /root/zipf.100k.a0_01.out 40000 1 ... test_parallel_lru_dist (map_type:9 map_flags:0x0): task:0 BPF LRU: nr_unique:61239(/100000) nr_misses:67054(/100000) task:0 Perfect LRU: nr_unique:61239(/100000 nr_misses:66993(/100000) ... test_parallel_lru_dist (map_type:9 map_flags:0x2): task:0 BPF LRU: nr_unique:61239(/100000) nr_misses:67068(/100000) task:0 Perfect LRU: nr_unique:61239(/100000 nr_misses:66993(/100000) LRU map has also been added to map_perf_test: /* Global LRU */ [root@kerneltest003.31.prn1 ~]# for i in 1 4 8; do echo -n "$i cpus: "; \ ./map_perf_test 16 $i | awk '{r += $3}END{print r " updates"}'; done 1 cpus: 2934082 updates 4 cpus: 7391434 updates 8 cpus: 6500576 updates /* Percpu LRU */ [root@kerneltest003.31.prn1 ~]# for i in 1 4 8; do echo -n "$i cpus: "; \ ./map_perf_test 32 $i | awk '{r += $3}END{print r " updates"}'; done 1 cpus: 2896553 updates 4 cpus: 9766395 updates 8 cpus: 17460553 updates Signed-off-by: Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@fb.com> Acked-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

torture: Prevent jitter from delaying build-only runs
Currently, if the --jitter flag specifies jitter for a --build-only run, the system will obediently build a kernel, refuse to launch it, launch the requested number of jitter processes, and wait for the specified kernel run time, which defaults to 30 minutes. This is of course quite pointless. This commit therefore disables jitter on build-only runs. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

bpf: Detect identical PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL registers
A BPF program is required to check the return register of a map_elem_lookup() call before accessing memory. The verifier keeps track of this by converting the type of the result register from PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL to PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE after a conditional jump ensures safety. This check is currently exclusively performed for the result register 0. In the event the compiler reorders instructions, BPF_MOV64_REG instructions may be moved before the conditional jump which causes them to keep their type PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL to which the verifier objects when the register is accessed: 0: (b7) r1 = 10 1: (7b) *(u64 *)(r10 -8) = r1 2: (bf) r2 = r10 3: (07) r2 += -8 4: (18) r1 = 0x59c00000 6: (85) call 1 7: (bf) r4 = r0 8: (15) if r0 == 0x0 goto pc+1 R0=map_value(ks=8,vs=8) R4=map_value_or_null(ks=8,vs=8) R10=fp 9: (7a) *(u64 *)(r4 +0) = 0 R4 invalid mem access 'map_value_or_null' This commit extends the verifier to keep track of all identical PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE_OR_NULL registers after a map_elem_lookup() by assigning them an ID and then marking them all when the conditional jump is observed.

Add a start of a test suite for kernel selftests. This moves test_verifier and test_maps over to tools/testing/selftests/bpf/ along with various code improvements and also adds a script for invoking test_bpf module. The test suite can simply be run via selftest framework, f.e.: # cd tools/testing/selftests/bpf/ # make # make run_tests Both test_verifier and test_maps were kind of misplaced in samples/bpf/ directory and we were looking into adding them to selftests for a while now, so it can be picked up by kbuild bot et al and hopefully also get more exposure and thus new test case additions.

radix-tree tests: add iteration test
There are four cases I can see where we could end up with a NULL 'slot' in
radix_tree_next_slot(). This unit test exercises all four of them, making
sure that if in the future we have an unsafe path through
radix_tree_next_slot(), we'll catch it.
Here are details on the four cases:
1) radix_tree_iter_retry() via a non-tagged iteration like
radix_tree_for_each_slot(). In this case we currently aren't seeing a bug
because radix_tree_iter_retry() sets
iter->next_index = iter->index;
which means that in in the else case in radix_tree_next_slot(), 'count' is
zero, so we skip over the while() loop and effectively just return NULL
without ever dereferencing 'slot'.
2) radix_tree_iter_retry() via tagged iteration like
radix_tree_for_each_tagged(). This case was giving us NULL pointer
dereferences in testing, and was fixed with this commit:

libnvdimm for 4.9
* PMEM sub-division support: Allow a single PMEM region to be divided
into multiple namespaces. Originally, ~2 years ago, it was thought that
partitions of a /dev/pmemX block device could handle sub-allocations of
persistent memory for different use cases. With the decision to not
support DAX mappings of raw block-devices, and the genesis of
device-dax, the need for having multiple pmem-namespace per region has
grown.
* Device-DAX unified inode: In support of dynamic-resizing of a
device-dax instance the kernel arranges for all mappings of a
device-dax node to share the same inode. This allows unmap / truncate /
invalidation events to affect all instances of the device similar to the
behavior of mmap on block devices.
* Hardware error scrubbing reworks: The original address-range-scrub +
badblocks tracking solution allowed clearing entries at the individual
namespace level, but it failed to clear the internal list of media
errors maintained at the bus level. The result was that the next scrub
or namespace disable/re-enable event would restore the cleared
badblocks, but now that is fixed. The v4.8 kernel introduced an
auto-scrub-on-machine-check behavior to repopulate the badblocks list.
Now, in v4.9, the auto-scrub behavior can be disabled and simply arrange
for the error reported in the machine-check to be added to the list.
* DIMM health-event notification support: ACPI 6.1 defines a
notification event code that can be send to ACPI NVDIMM devices. A
poll(2) capable file descriptor for these events can be obtained from
the nmemX/nfit/flags sysfs-attribute of a libnvdimm memory device.
* Miscellaneous fixes: NVDIMM-N probe error, device-dax build error, and
a change to dedup the flush hint list to not flush the memory controller
more than necessary.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"This set of changes is a number of smaller things that have been
overlooked in other development cycles focused on more fundamental
change. The devpts changes are small things that were a distraction
until we managed to kill off DEVPTS_MULTPLE_INSTANCES. There is an
trivial regression fix to autofs for the unprivileged mount changes
that went in last cycle. A pair of ioctls has been added by Andrey
Vagin making it is possible to discover the relationships between
namespaces when referring to them through file descriptors.
The big user visible change is starting to add simple resource limits
to catch programs that misbehave. With namespaces in general and user
namespaces in particular allowing users to use more kinds of
resources, it has become important to have something to limit errant
programs. Because the purpose of these limits is to catch errant
programs the code needs to be inexpensive to use as it always on, and
the default limits need to be high enough that well behaved programs
on well behaved systems don't encounter them.
To this end, after some review I have implemented per user per user
namespace limits, and use them to limit the number of namespaces. The
limits being per user mean that one user can not exhause the limits of
another user. The limits being per user namespace allow contexts where
the limit is 0 and security conscious folks can remove from their
threat anlysis the code used to manage namespaces (as they have
historically done as it root only). At the same time the limits being
per user namespace allow other parts of the system to use namespaces.
Namespaces are increasingly being used in application sand boxing
scenarios so an all or nothing disable for the entire system for the
security conscious folks makes increasing use of these sandboxes
impossible.
There is also added a limit on the maximum number of mounts present in
a single mount namespace. It is nontrivial to guess what a reasonable
system wide limit on the number of mount structure in the kernel would
be, especially as it various based on how a system is using
containers. A limit on the number of mounts in a mount namespace
however is much easier to understand and set. In most cases in
practice only about 1000 mounts are used. Given that some autofs
scenarious have the potential to be 30,000 to 50,000 mounts I have set
the default limit for the number of mounts at 100,000 which is well
above every known set of users but low enough that the mount hash
tables don't degrade unreaonsably.
These limits are a start. I expect this estabilishes a pattern that
other limits for resources that namespaces use will follow. There has
been interest in making inotify event limits per user per user
namespace as well as interest expressed in making details about what
is going on in the kernel more visible"
