When iterating over sockets using vsock_for_each_connected_socket, make
sure that a transport filters out sockets that don't belong to the
transport.
There actually was an issue caused by this; in a nested VM
configuration, destroying the nested VM (which often involves the
closing of /dev/vhost-vsock if there was h2g connections to the nested
VM) kills not only the h2g connections, but also all existing g2h
connections to the (outmost) host which are totally unrelated.
Tested: Executed the following steps on Cuttlefish (Android running on a
VM) [1]: (1) Enter into an `adb shell` session - to have a g2h
connection inside the VM, (2) open and then close /dev/vhost-vsock by
`exec 3< /dev/vhost-vsock && exec 3<&-`, (3) observe that the adb
session is not reset.

alx_reinit has a lockdep assertion that the alx->mtx mutex must be held.
alx_reinit is called from two places: alx_reset and alx_change_mtu.
alx_reset does acquire alx->mtx before calling alx_reinit.
alx_change_mtu does not acquire this mutex, nor do its callers or any
path towards alx_change_mtu.
Acquire the mutex in alx_change_mtu.
The issue was introduced when the fine-grained locking was introduced
to the code to replace the RTNL. The same commit also introduced the
lockdep assertion.

Qualcomm SoCs based on the RPM architecture have a MSM Power Manager (MPM)
in always-on domain. In addition to managing resources during sleep, the
hardware also has an interrupt controller that monitors the interrupts
when the system is asleep, wakes up the APSS when one of these interrupts
occur and replays it to GIC after it becomes operational.
It adds an irqchip driver for this interrupt controller, and here are
some notes about it.
- For given SoC, a fixed number of MPM pins are supported, e.g. 96 pins
on QCM2290. Each of these MPM pins can be either a MPM_GIC pin or
a MPM_GPIO pin. The mapping between MPM_GIC pin and GIC interrupt
is defined by SoC, as well as the mapping between MPM_GPIO pin and
GPIO number. The former mapping is retrieved from device tree, while
the latter is defined in TLMM pinctrl driver.
- The power domain (PD) .power_off hook is used to notify RPM that APSS
is about to power collapse. This requires MPM PD be the parent PD of
CPU cluster.
- When SoC gets awake from sleep mode, the driver will receive an
interrupt from RPM, so that it can replay interrupt for particular
polarity.

In testing the "Fix non-access data TLB cache flush faults" change,
I noticed a significant improvement in glibc build and check times.
This led me to investigate the parisc_cache_flush_threshold setting.
It determines when we switch from line flushing to whole cache flushing.
It turned out that the parisc_cache_flush_threshold setting on
mako and mako2 machines (PA8800 and PA8900 processors) was way too
small. Adjusting this setting provided almost a factor two improvement
in the glibc build and check time.

The get_current() code uses the mfctl() macro to get the pointer to the
current task struct from %cr30. The problem with the mfctl() macro is,
that it is marked volatile which is basically correct, because mfctl()
is used to get e.g. the current internal timer or interrupt flags as
well.
But specifically the task struct pointer (%cr30) doesn't change over
time when the kernel executes code for a task.
So, by dropping the volatile when retrieving %cr30 the compiler is now
able to get this value only once and optimize the generated code a lot.
A bloat-o-meter comparism shows that this patch saves ~5kB kernel code
on a 32-bit kernel and ~6kB kernel code on a 64-bit kernel.

This patch drops the CONFIG_PARISC_SELF_EXTRACT option.
The palo boot loader is able to decompress a kernel which was compressed
with gzip. That possibility was useful when the Linux kernel
self-extracting feature wasn't implemented yet.
Beside the fact that the self-extracting feature offers much better
compression rates, we do support self-extracting kernels already since
kernel v4.14, so now it's really time to get rid of that old option and
always use the self-extractor.

Add minimal vDSO support, which provides the signal trampoline helpers,
but none of the userspace syscall helpers like time wrappers.
The big benefit of this vDSO implementation is, that we now don't need
an executeable stack any longer. PA-RISC is one of the last
architectures where an executeable stack was needed in oder to implement
the signal trampolines by putting assembly instructions on the stack
which then gets executed. Instead the kernel will provide the relevant
code in the vDSO page and only put the pointers to the signal
information on the stack.
By dropping the need for executable stacks we avoid running into issues
with applications which want non executable stacks for security reasons.
Additionally, alternative stacks on memory areas without exec
permissions are supported too.
This code is based on an initial implementation by Randolph Chung from 2006:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-parisc/4544A34A.6080700@tausq.org/
I did the porting and lifted the code to current code base. Dave fixed
the unwind code so that gdb and glibc are able to backtrace through the
code. An additional patch to gdb will be pushed upstream by Dave.

Currently, the parisc kernel does not fully support non-access TLB
fault handling for probe instructions. In the fast path, we set the
target register to zero if it is not a shadowed register. The slow
path is not implemented, so we call do_page_fault. The architecture
indicates that non-access faults should not cause a page fault from
disk.
This change adds to code to provide non-access fault support for
probe instructions. It also modifies the handling of faults on
userspace so that if the address lies in a valid VMA and the access
type matches that for the VMA, the probe target register is set to
one. Otherwise, the target register is set to zero.
This was done to make probe instructions more useful for userspace.
Probe instructions are not very useful if they set the target register
to zero whenever a page is not present in memory. Nominally, the
purpose of the probe instruction is determine whether read or write
access to a given address is allowed.
This fixes a problem in function pointer comparison noticed in the

When a page is not present, we get non-access data TLB faults from
the fdc and fic instructions in flush_user_dcache_range_asm and
flush_user_icache_range_asm. When these occur, the cache line is
not invalidated and potentially we get memory corruption. The
problem was hidden by the nullification of the flush instructions.
These faults also affect performance. With pa8800/pa8900 processors,
there will be 32 faults per 4 KB page since the cache line is 128
bytes. There will be more faults with earlier processors.
The problem is fixed by using flush_cache_pages(). It does the flush
using a tmp alias mapping.
The flush_cache_pages() call in flush_cache_range() flushed too
large a range.
V2: Remove unnecessary preempt_disable() and preempt_enable() calls.

There is a limited amount of SGX memory (EPC) on each system. When that
memory is used up, SGX has its own swapping mechanism which is similar
in concept but totally separate from the core mm/* code. Instead of
swapping to disk, SGX swaps from EPC to normal RAM. That normal RAM
comes from a shared memory pseudo-file and can itself be swapped by the
core mm code. There is a hierarchy like this:
EPC <-> shmem <-> disk
After data is swapped back in from shmem to EPC, the shmem backing
storage needs to be freed. Currently, the backing shmem is not freed.
This effectively wastes the shmem while the enclave is running. The
memory is recovered when the enclave is destroyed and the backing
storage freed.
Sort this out by freeing memory with shmem_truncate_range(), as soon as
a page is faulted back to the EPC. In addition, free the memory for
PCMD pages as soon as all PCMD's in a page have been marked as unused
by zeroing its contents.

Merge misc fixes from David Howells:
"A set of patches for watch_queue filter issues noted by Jann. I've
added in a cleanup patch from Christophe Jaillet to convert to using
formal bitmap specifiers for the note allocation bitmap.
Also two filesystem fixes (afs and cachefiles)"
* emailed patches from David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>:
cachefiles: Fix volume coherency attribute
afs: Fix potential thrashing in afs writeback
watch_queue: Make comment about setting ->defunct more accurate
watch_queue: Fix lack of barrier/sync/lock between post and read
watch_queue: Free the alloc bitmap when the watch_queue is torn down
watch_queue: Fix the alloc bitmap size to reflect notes allocated
watch_queue: Use the bitmap API when applicable
watch_queue: Fix to always request a pow-of-2 pipe ring size
watch_queue: Fix to release page in ->release()
watch_queue, pipe: Free watchqueue state after clearing pipe ring
watch_queue: Fix filter limit check

A network filesystem may set coherency data on a volume cookie, and if
given, cachefiles will store this in an xattr on the directory in the
cache corresponding to the volume.
The function that sets the xattr just stores the contents of the volume
coherency buffer directly into the xattr, with nothing added; the
checking function, on the other hand, has a cut'n'paste error whereby it
tries to interpret the xattr contents as would be the xattr on an
ordinary file (using the cachefiles_xattr struct). This results in a
failure to match the coherency data because the buffer ends up being
shifted by 18 bytes.
Fix this by defining a structure specifically for the volume xattr and
making both the setting and checking functions use it.
Since the volume coherency doesn't work if used, take the opportunity to
insert a reserved field for future use, set it to 0 and check that it is
0. Log mismatch through the appropriate tracepoint.
Note that this only affects cifs; 9p, afs, ceph and nfs don't use the
volume coherency data at the moment.

In afs_writepages_region(), if the dirty page we find is undergoing
writeback or write to cache, but the sync_mode is WB_SYNC_NONE, we go
round the loop trying the same page again and again with no pausing or
waiting unless and until another thread manages to clear the writeback
and fscache flags.
Fix this with three measures:
(1) Advance start to after the page we found.
(2) Break out of the loop and return if rescheduling is requested.
(3) Arbitrarily give up after a maximum of 5 skips.

Since kprobe_int3_handler() is called in do_int3(), probing do_int3()
can cause a breakpoint recursion and crash the kernel. Therefore,
do_int3() should be marked as NOKPROBE_SYMBOL.

watch_queue_clear() has a comment stating that setting ->defunct to true
preventing new additions as well as preventing notifications. Whilst
the latter is true, the first bit is superfluous since at the time this
function is called, the pipe cannot be accessed to add new event
sources.
Remove the "new additions" bit from the comment.

There's nothing to synchronise post_one_notification() versus
pipe_read(). Whilst posting is done under pipe->rd_wait.lock, the
reader only takes pipe->mutex which cannot bar notification posting as
that may need to be made from contexts that cannot sleep.
Fix this by setting pipe->head with a barrier in post_one_notification()
and reading pipe->head with a barrier in pipe_read().
If that's not sufficient, the rd_wait.lock will need to be taken,
possibly in a ->confirm() op so that it only applies to notifications.
The lock would, however, have to be dropped before copy_page_to_iter()
is invoked.
