Patch series "kvmalloc", v5.
There are many open coded kmalloc with vmalloc fallback instances in the
tree. Most of them are not careful enough or simply do not care about
the underlying semantic of the kmalloc/page allocator which means that
a) some vmalloc fallbacks are basically unreachable because the kmalloc
part will keep retrying until it succeeds b) the page allocator can
invoke a really disruptive steps like the OOM killer to move forward
which doesn't sound appropriate when we consider that the vmalloc
fallback is available.
As it can be seen implementing kvmalloc requires quite an intimate
knowledge if the page allocator and the memory reclaim internals which
strongly suggests that a helper should be implemented in the memory
subsystem proper.
Most callers, I could find, have been converted to use the helper
instead. This is patch 6. There are some more relying on __GFP_REPEAT
in the networking stack which I have converted as well and Eric Dumazet
was not opposed [2] to convert them as well.

[2] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1485273626.16328.301.camel@edumazet-glaptop3.roam.corp.google.com
This patch (of 9):
Using kmalloc with the vmalloc fallback for larger allocations is a
common pattern in the kernel code. Yet we do not have any common helper
for that and so users have invented their own helpers. Some of them are
really creative when doing so. Let's just add kv[mz]alloc and make sure
it is implemented properly. This implementation makes sure to not make
a large memory pressure for > PAGE_SZE requests (__GFP_NORETRY) and also
to not warn about allocation failures. This also rules out the OOM
killer as the vmalloc is a more approapriate fallback than a disruptive
user visible action.
This patch also changes some existing users and removes helpers which
are specific for them. In some cases this is not possible (e.g.
ext4_kvmalloc, libcfs_kvzalloc) because those seems to be broken and
require GFP_NO{FS,IO} context which is not vmalloc compatible in general
(note that the page table allocation is GFP_KERNEL). Those need to be
fixed separately.
While we are at it, document that __vmalloc{_node} about unsupported gfp
mask because there seems to be a lot of confusion out there.
kvmalloc_node will warn about GFP_KERNEL incompatible (which are not
superset) flags to catch new abusers. Existing ones would have to die
slowly.

fadump supports specifying memory to reserve for fadump's crash kernel
with fadump_reserve_mem kernel parameter. This parameter currently
supports passing a fixed memory size, like fadump_reserve_mem=<size>
only. This patch aims to add support for other syntaxes like
range-based memory size
<range1>:<size1>[,<range2>:<size2>,<range3>:<size3>,...] which allows
using the same parameter to boot the kernel with different system RAM
sizes.
As crashkernel parameter already supports the above mentioned syntaxes,
this patch deprecates fadump_reserve_mem parameter and reuses
crashkernel parameter instead, to specify memory for fadump's crash
kernel memory reservation as well. If any offset is provided in
crashkernel parameter, it will be ignored in case of fadump, as fadump
reserves memory at end of RAM.
Advantages using crashkernel parameter instead of fadump_reserve_mem
parameter are one less kernel parameter overall, code reuse and support
for multiple syntaxes to specify memory.

Patch series "kexec/fadump: remove dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC and
reuse crashkernel parameter for fadump", v4.
Traditionally, kdump is used to save vmcore in case of a crash. Some
architectures like powerpc can save vmcore using architecture specific
support instead of kexec/kdump mechanism. Such architecture specific
support also needs to reserve memory, to be used by dump capture kernel.
crashkernel parameter can be a reused, for memory reservation, by such
architecture specific infrastructure.
This patchset removes dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC for crashkernel
parameter and vmcoreinfo related code as it can be reused without kexec
support. Also, crashkernel parameter is reused instead of
fadump_reserve_mem to reserve memory for fadump.
The first patch moves crashkernel parameter parsing and vmcoreinfo
related code under CONFIG_CRASH_CORE instead of CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE. The
second patch reuses the definitions of append_elf_note() & final_note()
functions under CONFIG_CRASH_CORE in IA64 arch code. The third patch
removes dependency on CONFIG_KEXEC for firmware-assisted dump (fadump)
in powerpc. The next patch reuses crashkernel parameter for reserving
memory for fadump, instead of the fadump_reserve_mem parameter. This
has the advantage of using all syntaxes crashkernel parameter supports,
for fadump as well. The last patch updates fadump kernel documentation
about use of crashkernel parameter.
This patch (of 5):
Traditionally, kdump is used to save vmcore in case of a crash. Some
architectures like powerpc can save vmcore using architecture specific
support instead of kexec/kdump mechanism. Such architecture specific
support also needs to reserve memory, to be used by dump capture kernel.
crashkernel parameter can be a reused, for memory reservation, by such
architecture specific infrastructure.
But currently, code related to vmcoreinfo and parsing of crashkernel
parameter is built under CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE. This patch introduces
CONFIG_CRASH_CORE and moves the above mentioned code under this config,
allowing code reuse without dependency on CONFIG_KEXEC. There is no
functional change with this patch.

Bit searching functions accept "unsigned long" indices but
"nr_cpumask_bits" is "int" which is signed, so inevitable sign
extensions occur on x86_64. Those MOVSX are #1 MOVSX bloat by number of
uses across whole kernel.
Change "nr_cpumask_bits" to unsigned, this number can't be negative
after all. It allows to do implicit zero-extension on x86_64 without
MOVSX.
Change signed comparisons into unsigned comparisons where necessary.
Other uses looks fine because it is either argument passed to a function
or comparison is already unsigned.

Enable generic earlycon support for nios2. This e.g. allows to use a
8250/16650 UART as earlycon.
In order to get the earlycon, we just need to call parse_early_param()
in early_init_devtree() as soon as the device tree is initially scanned.
By adding an stdout-path property to the dts (done in this patch for
10m50_devboard), the earlycon can be used.
In order to provide early printk support, we need to provide a dummy
implementation of early_console_write(), so that
arch/nios2/kernel/early_printk.c can still be compiled if neither
SERIAL_ALTERA_JTAGUART_CONSOLE nor SERIAL_ALTERA_UART_CONSOLE is
selected. As soon as the altera_uart and altera_jtaguart support
earlycon, the entire file can be removed.

Kexec sets up all identity mappings before booting into the new
kernel, and this will cause extra memory consumption for paging
structures which is quite considerable on modern machines with
huge memory sizes.
E.g. on a 32TB machine that is kdumping, it could waste around
128MB (around 4MB/TB) from the reserved memory after kexec sets
all the identity mappings using the current 2MB page.
Add to that the memory needed for the loaded kdump kernel, initramfs,
etc., and it causes a kexec syscall -NOMEM failure.
As a result, we had to enlarge reserved memory via "crashkernel=X"
to work around this problem.
This causes some trouble for distributions that use policies
to evaluate the proper "crashkernel=X" value for users.
So enable gbpages for kexec mappings.

Kernel identity mappings on x86-64 kernels are created in two
ways: by the early x86 boot code, or by kernel_ident_mapping_init().
Native kernels (which is the dominant usecase) use the former,
but the kexec and the hibernation code uses kernel_ident_mapping_init().
There's a subtle difference between these two ways of how identity
mappings are created, the current kernel_ident_mapping_init() code
creates identity mappings always using 2MB page(PMD level) - while
the native kernel boot path also utilizes gbpages where available.
This difference is suboptimal both for performance and for memory
usage: kernel_ident_mapping_init() needs to allocate pages for the
page tables when creating the new identity mappings.
This patch adds 1GB page(PUD level) support to kernel_ident_mapping_init()
to address these concerns.
The primary advantage would be better TLB coverage/performance,
because we'd utilize 1GB TLBs instead of 2MB ones.
It is also useful for machines with large number of memory to
save paging structure allocations(around 4MB/TB using 2MB page)
when setting identity mappings for all the memory, after using
1GB page it will consume only 8KB/TB.
( Note that this change alone does not activate gbpages in kexec,
we are doing that in a separate patch. )

supporting kernel FORTIFY_SOURCE, which uses the noreturn annotation
on panic, and calls error(). GCC would warn about a noreturn function
calling a non-noreturn function:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"The bulk of this has been in multiple -next releases. There were a few
late breaking fixes and small features that got added in the last
couple days, but the whole set has received a build success
notification from the kbuild robot.
Change summary:
- Region media error reporting: A libnvdimm region device is the
parent to one or more namespaces. To date, media errors have been
reported via the "badblocks" attribute attached to pmem block
devices for namespaces in "raw" or "memory" mode. Given that
namespaces can be in "device-dax" or "btt-sector" mode this new
interface reports media errors generically, i.e. independent of
namespace modes or state.
This subsequently allows userspace tooling to craft "ACPI 6.1
Section 9.20.7.6 Function Index 4 - Clear Uncorrectable Error"
requests and submit them via the ioctl path for NVDIMM root bus
devices.
- Introduce 'struct dax_device' and 'struct dax_operations': Prompted
by a request from Linus and feedback from Christoph this allows for
dax capable drivers to publish their own custom dax operations.
This fixes the broken assumption that all dax operations are
related to a persistent memory device, and makes it easier for
other architectures and platforms to add customized persistent
memory support.
- 'libnvdimm' core updates: A new "deep_flush" sysfs attribute is
available for storage appliance applications to manually trigger
memory controllers to drain write-pending buffers that would
otherwise be flushed automatically by the platform ADR
(asynchronous-DRAM-refresh) mechanism at a power loss event.
Support for "locked" DIMMs is included to prevent namespaces from
surfacing when the namespace label data area is locked. Finally,
fixes for various reported deadlocks and crashes, also tagged for
-stable.
- ACPI / nfit driver updates: General updates of the nfit driver to
add DSM command overrides, ACPI 6.1 health state flags support, DSM
payload debug available by default, and various fixes.

This reverts commit 7cab91b87dd8eeee5911ec34be8bb0288ebba18b.
Now when we have a real hardware platform with PAE40 enabled
(here I mean axs103 with firmware v1.2) and 1 Gb of DDR mapped to
0x1_a000_0000-0x1_ffff_ffff we're really targeting memory above 4Gb
when PAE40 is enabled. This in its turn requires HIGHMEM to be enabled
otherwise user won't see any difference with enabling PAE in
kernel configuration as only lowmem will be used anyways.

While honouring the DMA_ATTR_FORCE_CONTIGUOUS on arm64 (commit
44176bb38fa4: "arm64: Add support for DMA_ATTR_FORCE_CONTIGUOUS to
IOMMU"), the existing uses of dma_mmap_attrs() and dma_get_sgtable()
have been broken by passing a physically contiguous vm_struct with an
invalid pages pointer through the common iommu API.
Since the coherent allocation with DMA_ATTR_FORCE_CONTIGUOUS uses CMA,
this patch simply reuses the existing swiotlb logic for mmap and
get_sgtable.
Note that the current implementation of get_sgtable (both swiotlb and
iommu) is broken if dma_declare_coherent_memory() is used since such
memory does not have a corresponding struct page. To be addressed in a
subsequent patch.

Routines that are set by xen_init_time_ops() use shared_info's
pvclock_vcpu_time_info area. This area is not properly available until
shared_info is mapped in xen_setup_shared_info().
This became especially problematic due to commit dd759d93f4dd ("x86/timers:
Add simple udelay calibration") where we end up reading tsc_to_system_mul
from xen_dummy_shared_info (i.e. getting zero value) and then trying
to divide by it in pvclock_tsc_khz().

incompatibility
The constraint "rm" allows the compiler to put mix_const into memory.
When the input operand is a memory location then MUL needs an operand
size suffix, since Clang can't infer the multiplication width from the
operand.
Add and use the _ASM_MUL macro which determines the operand size and
resolves to the NUL instruction with the corresponding suffix.
This fixes the following error when building with clang:
CC arch/x86/lib/kaslr.o

Commit f4ea6dcb08ea ("powerpc/mm: Enable mappings above 128TB") increased
the task size on book3s, and introduced a mechanism to dynamically
control whether a task uses these larger addresses. While the change to
the task size itself was ifdef-protected to only apply on book3s, the
change to STACK_TOP_USER64 was not. On book3e, this had the effect of
trying to use addresses up to 128TiB for the stack despite a 64TiB task
size limit -- which broke 64-bit userspace producing the following errors:
Starting init: /sbin/init exists but couldn't execute it (error -14)
Starting init: /bin/sh exists but couldn't execute it (error -14)
Kernel panic - not syncing: No working init found. Try passing init= option to kernel. See Linux Documentation/admin-guide/init.rst for guidance.

sync_global_pgds()
Jeff Moyer reported that on his system with two memory regions 0~64G and
1T~1T+192G, and kernel option "memmap=192G!1024G" added, enabling KASLR
will make the system hang intermittently during boot. While adding 'nokaslr'
won't.
The back trace is:
Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP
RIP: memcpy_erms()
[ .... ]
Call Trace:

This crash happens because the for loop count calculation in sync_global_pgds()
is not correct. When a mapping area crosses PGD entries, we should
calculate the starting address of region which next PGD covers and assign
it to next for loop count, but not add PGDIR_SIZE directly. The old
code works right only if the mapping area is an exact multiple of PGDIR_SIZE,
otherwize the end region could be skipped so that it can't be synchronized
to all other processes from kernel PGD init_mm.pgd.
In Jeff's system, emulated pmem area [1024G, 1216G) is smaller than
PGDIR_SIZE. While 'nokaslr' works because PAGE_OFFSET is 1T aligned, it
makes this area be mapped inside one PGD entry. With KASLR enabled,
this area could cross two PGD entries, then the next PGD entry won't
be synced to all other processes. That is why we saw empty PGD.
Fix it.

Andrey Konovalov reported the following warning while fuzzing the kernel
with syzkaller:
WARNING: kernel stack regs at ffff8800686869f8 in a.out:4933 has bad 'bp' value c3fc855a10167ec0
The unwinder dump revealed that RBP had a bad value when an interrupt
occurred in csum_partial_copy_generic().
That function saves RBP on the stack and then overwrites it, using it as
a scratch register. That's problematic because it breaks stack traces
if an interrupt occurs in the middle of the function.
Replace the usage of RBP with another callee-saved register (R15) so
stack traces are no longer affected.

Pull char/misc driver updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of new char/misc driver drivers and features for
4.12-rc1.
There's lots of new drivers added this time around, new firmware
drivers from Google, more auxdisplay drivers, extcon drivers, fpga
drivers, and a bunch of other driver updates. Nothing major, except if
you happen to have the hardware for these drivers, and then you will
be happy :)
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues"

Pull USB updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big USB patchset for 4.12-rc1.
Lots of good stuff here, after many many many attempts, the kernel
finally has a working typeC interface, many thanks to Heikki and
Guenter and others who have taken the time to get this merged. It
wasn't an easy path for them at all.
There's also a staging driver that uses this new api, which is why
it's coming in through this tree.
Along with that, there's the usual huge number of changes for gadget
drivers, xhci, and other stuff. Johan also finally refactored pretty
much every driver that was looking at USB endpoints to do it in a
common way, which will help prevent any "badly-formed" devices from
causing problems in drivers. That too wasn't a simple task.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues"

Pull x86 platform-drivers update from Darren Hart:
"This represents a significantly larger and more complex set of changes
than those of prior merge windows.
In particular, we had several changes with dependencies on other
subsystems which we felt were best managed through merges of immutable
branches, including one each from input, i2c, and leds. Two patches
for the watchdog subsystem are included after discussion with Wim and
Guenter following a collision in linux-next (this should be resolved
and you should only see these two appear in this pull request). These
are called out in the "External" section below.
Summary of changes:
- significant further cleanup of fujitsu-laptop and hp-wmi
