pipe: reject F_SETPIPE_SZ with size over UINT_MAX
A pipe's size is represented as an 'unsigned int'. As expected, writing a value greater than UINT_MAX to /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size fails with EINVAL. However, the F_SETPIPE_SZ fcntl silently truncates such values to 32 bits, rather than failing with EINVAL as expected. (It *does* fail with EINVAL for values above (1 << 31) but <= UINT_MAX.) Fix this by moving the check against UINT_MAX into round_pipe_size() which is called in both cases.

pipe, sysctl: remove pipe_proc_fn()
pipe_proc_fn() is no longer needed, as it only calls through to proc_dopipe_max_size(). Just put proc_dopipe_max_size() in the ctl_table entry directly, and remove the unneeded EXPORT_SYMBOL() and the ENOSYS stub for it. (The reason the ENOSYS stub isn't needed is that the pipe-max-size ctl_table entry is located directly in 'kern_table' rather than being registered separately. Therefore, the entry is already only defined when the kernel is built with sysctl support.)

pipe, sysctl: drop 'min' parameter from pipe-max-size converter
Patch series "pipe: buffer limits fixes and cleanups", v2. This series simplifies the sysctl handler for pipe-max-size and fixes another set of bugs related to the pipe buffer limits: - The root user wasn't allowed to exceed the limits when creating new pipes. - There was an off-by-one error when checking the limits, so a limit of N was actually treated as N - 1. - F_SETPIPE_SZ accepted values over UINT_MAX. - Reading the pipe buffer limits could be racy. This patch (of 7): Before validating the given value against pipe_min_size, do_proc_dopipe_max_size_conv() calls round_pipe_size(), which rounds the value up to pipe_min_size. Therefore, the second check against pipe_min_size is redundant. Remove it.

kcov: detect double association with a single task
Currently KCOV_ENABLE does not check if the current task is already
associated with another kcov descriptor. As the result it is possible
to associate a single task with more than one kcov descriptor, which
later leads to a memory leak of the old descriptor. This relation is
really meant to be one-to-one (task has only one back link).
Extend validation to detect such misuse.

Makefile: introduce CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO
Nearly all modern compilers support a stack-protector option, and nearly all modern distributions enable the kernel stack-protector, so enabling this by default in kernel builds would make sense. However, Kconfig does not have knowledge of available compiler features, so it isn't safe to force on, as this would unconditionally break builds for the compilers or architectures that don't have support. Instead, this introduces a new option, CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_AUTO, which attempts to discover the best possible stack-protector available, and will allow builds to proceed even if the compiler doesn't support any stack-protector. This option is made the default so that kernels built with modern compilers will be protected-by-default against stack buffer overflows, avoiding things like the recent BlueBorne attack. Selection of a specific stack-protector option remains available, including disabling it. Additionally, tiny.config is adjusted to use CC_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE, since that's the option with the least code size (and it used to be the default, so we have to explicitly choose it there now).

libnvdimm for 4.16
* Require struct page by default for filesystem DAX to remove a number of
surprising failure cases. This includes failures with direct I/O, gdb and
fork(2).
* Add support for the new Platform Capabilities Structure added to the NFIT in
ACPI 6.2a. This new table tells us whether the platform supports flushing
of CPU and memory controller caches on unexpected power loss events.
* Revamp vmem_altmap and dev_pagemap handling to clean up code and better
support future future PCI P2P uses.
* Deprecate the ND_IOCTL_SMART_THRESHOLD command whose payload has become
out-of-sync with recent versions of the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL spec, and
instead rely on the generic ND_CMD_CALL approach used by the two other IOCTL
families, NVDIMM_FAMILY_{HPE,MSFT}.
* Enhance nfit_test so we can test some of the new things added in version 1.6
of the DSM specification. This includes testing firmware download and
simulating the Last Shutdown State (LSS) status.

sched/fair: Do not migrate if the prev_cpu is idle
wake_affine_idle() prefers to move a task to the current CPU if the
wakeup is due to an interrupt. The expectation is that the interrupt
data is cache hot and relevant to the waking task as well as avoiding
a search. However, there is no way to determine if there was cache hot
data on the previous CPU that may exceed the interrupt data. Furthermore,
round-robin delivery of interrupts can migrate tasks around a socket where
each CPU is under-utilised. This can interact badly with cpufreq which
makes decisions based on per-cpu data. It has been observed on machines
with HWP that p-states are not boosted to their maximum levels even though
the workload is latency and throughput sensitive.
This patch uses the previous CPU for the task if it's idle and cache-affine
with the current CPU even if the current CPU is idle due to the wakup
being related to the interrupt. This reduces migrations at the cost of
the interrupt data not being cache hot when the task wakes.
A variety of workloads were tested on various machines and no adverse
impact was noticed that was outside noise. dbench on ext4 on UMA showed
roughly 10% reduction in the number of CPU migrations and it is a case
where interrupts are frequent for IO competions. In most cases, the
difference in performance is quite small but variability is often
reduced. For example, this is the result for pgbench running on a UMA
machine with different numbers of clients.

sched/rt: Up the root domain ref count when passing it around via IPIs
When issuing an IPI RT push, where an IPI is sent to each CPU that has more
than one RT task scheduled on it, it references the root domain's rto_mask,
that contains all the CPUs within the root domain that has more than one RT
task in the runable state. The problem is, after the IPIs are initiated, the
rq->lock is released. This means that the root domain that is associated to
the run queue could be freed while the IPIs are going around.
Add a sched_get_rd() and a sched_put_rd() that will increment and decrement
the root domain's ref count respectively. This way when initiating the IPIs,
the scheduler will up the root domain's ref count before releasing the
rq->lock, ensuring that the root domain does not go away until the IPI round
is complete.

sched/rt: Use container_of() to get root domain in rto_push_irq_work_func()
When the rto_push_irq_work_func() is called, it looks at the RT overloaded
bitmask in the root domain via the runqueue (rq->rd). The problem is that
during CPU up and down, nothing here stops rq->rd from changing between
taking the rq->rd->rto_lock and releasing it. That means the lock that is
released is not the same lock that was taken.
Instead of using this_rq()->rd to get the root domain, as the irq work is
part of the root domain, we can simply get the root domain from the irq work
that is passed to the routine:
container_of(work, struct root_domain, rto_push_work)
This keeps the root domain consistent.

membarrier: Provide core serializing command, *_SYNC_CORE
Provide core serializing membarrier command to support memory reclaim by JIT. Each architecture needs to explicitly opt into that support by documenting in their architecture code how they provide the core serializing instructions required when returning from the membarrier IPI, and after the scheduler has updated the curr->mm pointer (before going back to user-space). They should then select ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_SYNC_CORE to enable support for that command on their architecture. Architectures selecting this feature need to either document that they issue core serializing instructions when returning to user-space, or implement their architecture-specific sync_core_before_usermode().

membarrier: Provide GLOBAL_EXPEDITED command
Allow expedited membarrier to be used for data shared between processes through shared memory. Processes wishing to receive the membarriers register with MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED. Those which want to issue membarrier invoke MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED. This allows extremely simple kernel-level implementation: we have almost everything we need with the PRIVATE_EXPEDITED barrier code. All we need to do is to add a flag in the mm_struct that will be used to check whether we need to send the IPI to the current thread of each CPU. There is a slight downside to this approach compared to targeting specific shared memory users: when performing a membarrier operation, all registered "global" receivers will get the barrier, even if they don't share a memory mapping with the sender issuing MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED. This registration approach seems to fit the requirement of not disturbing processes that really deeply care about real-time: they simply should not register with MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED. In order to align the membarrier command names, the "MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED" command is renamed to "MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL", keeping an alias of MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED to MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL for UAPI header backward compatibility.

powerpc, membarrier: Skip memory barrier in switch_mm()
Allow PowerPC to skip the full memory barrier in switch_mm(), and only issue the barrier when scheduling into a task belonging to a process that has registered to use expedited private. Threads targeting the same VM but which belong to different thread groups is a tricky case. It has a few consequences: It turns out that we cannot rely on get_nr_threads(p) to count the number of threads using a VM. We can use (atomic_read(&mm->mm_users) == 1 && get_nr_threads(p) == 1) instead to skip the synchronize_sched() for cases where the VM only has a single user, and that user only has a single thread. It also turns out that we cannot use for_each_thread() to set thread flags in all threads using a VM, as it only iterates on the thread group. Therefore, test the membarrier state variable directly rather than relying on thread flags. This means membarrier_register_private_expedited() needs to set the MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag, issue synchronize_sched(), and only then set MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_READY which allows private expedited membarrier commands to succeed. membarrier_arch_switch_mm() now tests for the MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag.

Currently, hardened usercopy performs dynamic bounds checking on slab
cache objects. This is good, but still leaves a lot of kernel memory available to be copied to/from userspace in the face of bugs. To further restrict what memory is available for copying, this creates a way to whitelist specific areas of a given slab cache object for copying to/from userspace, allowing much finer granularity of access control. Slab caches that are never exposed to userspace can declare no whitelist for their objects, thereby keeping them unavailable to userspace via dynamic copy operations.

This is good, but still leaves a lot of kernel memory available to be copied to/from userspace in the face of bugs. To further restrict what memory is available for copying, this creates a way to whitelist specific areas of a given slab cache object for copying to/from userspace, allowing much finer granularity of access control. Slab caches that are never exposed to userspace can declare no whitelist for their objects, thereby keeping them unavailable to userspace via dynamic copy operations.

x86/power: Fix swsusp_arch_resume prototype
The declaration for swsusp_arch_resume marks it as 'asmlinkage', but the
definition in x86-32 does not, and it fails to include the header with the
declaration. This leads to a warning when building with
link-time-optimizations:
kernel/power/power.h:108:23: error: type of 'swsusp_arch_resume' does not match original declaration [-Werror=lto-type-mismatch]
extern asmlinkage int swsusp_arch_resume(void);
^
arch/x86/power/hibernate_32.c:148:0: note: 'swsusp_arch_resume' was previously declared here
int swsusp_arch_resume(void)
This moves the declaration into a globally visible header file and fixes up
both x86 definitions to match it.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Add a console_msg_format command line option:
The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The
value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log
level>[timestamp] text" format.
This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for
example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs
at hands.
- Reduce the risk of softlockup:
Pass the console owner in a busy loop.
This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by
Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which
the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep.
On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use
a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the
console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of
the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the
waiter.
The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations.
Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example,
when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too
much to flush.
There is increasing number of people having problems with
printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better
solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising
direction.
- Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk():
This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped
to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output.
This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described
above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective.
- Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier:
It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function
descriptors and show the real function address. It is done
transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now.
Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in
a special elf section and could be easily detected.
- Remove printk_symbol() API:
It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change
helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API.
- Remove redundant memsets:
Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg
command line option.

Mostly clean ups and small fixes
There's not much changes for the tracing system this release. Mostly small clean ups and fixes. The biggest change is to how bprintf works. bprintf is used by trace_printk() to just save the format and args of a printf call, and the formatting is done when the trace buffer is read. This is done to keep the formatting out of the fast path (this was recommended by you). The issue is when arguments are de-referenced. If a pointer is saved, and the format has something like "%*pbl", when the buffer is read, it will de-reference the argument then. The problem is if the data no longer exists. This can cause the kernel to oops. The fix for this was to make these de-reference pointes do the formatting at the time it is called (the fast path), as this guarantees that the data exists (and doesn't change later) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQHIBAABCgAyFiEEPm6V/WuN2kyArTUe1a05Y9njSUkFAlpzUWIUHHJvc3RlZHRA Z29vZG1pcy5vcmcACgkQ1a05Y9njSUk6FQwAqvrOE8AO9cbwB0bxm82aZj7UyYkG D9w4goPiykcNR31wxvM2jhrQn6uqG04g2YFCZntZvZMmGFyu6y/tDxGNGe0cHmVR 1dZkFcst6IAHybY70cIkAcNNJXFFsccTaVcuniidWYwq2K3z2eqK5s3YfA+ZMr0q nfUvv0cIgdGTduM4SuoKr0ewxb779I0tHhQXUnMTeLOWG3HQhOh5LcjdBk/N4pTj axfXIlx8lkHSPOvvUmpJ/R51v7HzfidibEnUrrx46ng3DV81hFdEhwbVl+GO44fP 9Wq7vRCvTThvTZVCg8gaYsuo3+CPISmlkpdq373bCqnKuGynGmXzkFNzXjDHl8pL GPbji/Gu9kSMZaZoBihleaX4G4UW386nqDC2YlLTe4rx6f8phYLxMOC2/8nZ+A3L JKB4PTWKUSSNCfaPgiT6dv/CeaXalcYtgVJ2xM2jFhoOEyM5jwb0f6tdvXsuj5Fn ZlFNTuKWPn0siQIng7EZan3LmIFkukM5sfVF =bmm/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v4.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "There's not much changes for the tracing system this release.

Staging/IIO patches for 4.16-rc1
Here is the big Staging and IIO driver patches for 4.16-rc1. There is the normal amount of new IIO drivers added, like all releases. The networking IPX and the ncpfs filesystem are moved into the staging tree, as they are on their way out of the kernel due to lack of use anymore. The visorbus subsystem finall has started moving out of the staging tree to the "real" part of the kernel, and the most and fsl-mc codebases are almost ready to move out, that will probably happen for 4.17-rc1 if all goes well. Other than that, there is a bunch of license header cleanups in the tree, along with the normal amount of coding style churn that we all know and love for this codebase. I also got frustrated at the Meltdown/Spectre mess and took it out on the dgnc tty driver, deleting huge chunks of it that were never even being used. Full details of everything is in the shortlog. All of these patches have been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues.

This is caused by the rewrite of the irq activation/startup sequence which
missed to convert a callsite in the irq legacy auto probing code.
To fix this irq_activate_and_startup() needs to gain a return value so the
pending logic can work proper.
