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.

Pull siginfo cleanups from Eric Biederman:
"Long ago when 2.4 was just a testing release copy_siginfo_to_user was
made to copy individual fields to userspace, possibly for efficiency
and to ensure initialized values were not copied to userspace.
Unfortunately the design was complex, it's assumptions unstated, and
humans are fallible and so while it worked much of the time that
design failed to ensure unitialized memory is not copied to userspace.
This set of changes is part of a new design to clean up siginfo and
simplify things, and hopefully make the siginfo handling robust enough
that a simple inspection of the code can be made to ensure we don't
copy any unitializied fields to userspace.
The design is to unify struct siginfo and struct compat_siginfo into a
single definition that is shared between all architectures so that
anyone adding to the set of information shared with struct siginfo can
see the whole picture. Hopefully ensuring all future si_code
assignments are arch independent.
The design is to unify copy_siginfo_to_user32 and
copy_siginfo_from_user32 so that those function are complete and cope
with all of the different cases documented in signinfo_layout. I don't
think there was a single implementation of either of those functions
that was complete and correct before my changes unified them.
The design is to introduce a series of helpers including
force_siginfo_fault that take the values that are needed in struct
siginfo and build the siginfo structure for their callers. Ensuring
struct siginfo is built correctly.
The remaining work for 4.17 (unless someone thinks it is post -rc1
material) is to push usage of those helpers down into the
architectures so that architecture specific code will not need to deal
with the fiddly work of intializing struct siginfo, and then when
struct siginfo is guaranteed to be fully initialized change copy
siginfo_to_user into a simple wrapper around copy_to_user.
Further there is work in progress on the issues that have been
documented requires arch specific knowledge to sort out.
The changes below fix or at least document all of the issues that have
been found with siginfo generation. Then proceed to unify struct
siginfo the 32 bit helpers that copy siginfo to and from userspace,
and generally clean up anything that is not arch specific with regards
to siginfo generation.
It is a lot but with the unification you can of siginfo you can
already see the code reduction in the kernel"

There are so many places that build struct siginfo by hand that at
least one of them is bound to get it wrong. A handful of cases in the
kernel arguably did just that when using the errno field of siginfo to
pass no errno values to userspace. The usage is limited to a single
si_code so at least does not mess up anything else.
Encapsulate this questionable pattern in a helper function so
that the userspace ABI is preserved.
Update all of the places that use this pattern to use the new helper
function.

The __memzero assembly code is almost identical to memset's except for
two orr instructions. The runtime performance of __memset(p, n) and
memset(p, 0, n) is accordingly almost identical.
However, the memset() macro used to guard against a zero length and to
call __memzero at compile time when the fill value is a constant zero
interferes with compiler optimizations.
Arnd found tha the test against a zero length brings up some new
warnings with gcc v8:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=82103
And successively rremoving the test against a zero length and the call
to __memzero optimization produces the following kernel sizes for
defconfig with gcc 6:
text data bss dec hex filename
12248142 6278960 413588 18940690 1210312 vmlinux.orig
12244474 6278960 413588 18937022 120f4be vmlinux.no_zero_test
12239160 6278960 413588 18931708 120dffc vmlinux.no_memzero
So it is probably not worth keeping __memzero around given that the
compiler can do a better job at inlining trivial memset(p,0,n) on its
own. And the memset code already handles a zero length just fine.

On arm, PCI_REASSIGN_ALL_RSRC is used only in pcibios_assign_all_busses(),
which helps decide whether to reconfigure bridge bus numbers. It has
nothing to do with BAR assignments. On arm64 and powerpc,
pcibios_assign_all_busses() tests PCI_REASSIGN_ALL_BUS, which makes more
sense.
Align arm with arm64 and powerpc, so they all use PCI_REASSIGN_ALL_BUS for
pcibios_assign_all_busses().
Remove PCI_REASSIGN_ALL_RSRC from the generic, Tegra, Versatile, and
R-Car drivers. These drivers are used only on arm or arm64, where
PCI_REASSIGN_ALL_RSRC is not used after this change, so removing it
should have no effect.
No functional change intended.

Avoid adding kprobes to any of the kernel entry/exit or startup
assembly code, or code in the identity-mapped region. This code does
not conform to the standard C conventions, which means that the
expectations of the kprobes code is not forfilled.
Placing kprobes at some of these locations results in the kernel trying
to return to userspace addresses while retaining the CPU in kernel mode.

ARM: avoid faulting on qemu
|
|
When qemu starts a kernel in a bare environment, the default SCR has
the AW and FW bits clear, which means that the kernel can't modify
the PSR A or PSR F bits, and means that FIQs and imprecise aborts are
always masked.
When running uboot under qemu, the AW and FW SCR bits are set, and the
kernel functions normally - and this is how real hardware behaves.
Fix this for qemu by ignoring the FIQ bit.

Detect if we are returning to usermode via the normal kernel exit paths

When CONFIG_DEBUG_USER is enabled, it's possible for a user to
deliberately trigger dump_instr() with a chosen kernel address.
Let's avoid problems resulting from this by using get_user() rather than
__get_user(), ensuring that we don't erroneously access kernel memory.
So that we can use the same code to dump user instructions and kernel
instructions, the common dumping code is factored out to __dump_instr(),
with the fs manipulated appropriately in dump_instr() around calls to
this.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Currently, there is assumption in early MPU setup code that kernel
image is located in RAM, which is obviously not true for XIP. To run
code from ROM we need to make sure that it is covered by MPU. However,
due to we allocate regions (semi-)dynamically we can run into issue of
trimming region we are running from in case ROM spawns several MPU
regions. To help deal with that we enforce minimum alignments for start
end end of XIP address space as 1MB and 128Kb correspondingly.

Currently, there are several issues with how MPU is setup:
1. We won't boot if MPU is missing
2. We won't boot if use XIP
3. Further extension of MPU setup requires asm skills
The 1st point can be relaxed, so we can continue with boot CPU even if
MPU is missed and fail boot for secondaries only. To address the 2nd
point we could create region covering CONFIG_XIP_PHYS_ADDR - _end and
that might work for the first stage of MPU enable, but due to MPU's
alignment requirement we could cover too much, IOW we need more
flexibility in how we're partitioning memory regions... and it'd be
hardly possible to archive because of the 3rd point.
This patch is trying to address 1st and 3rd issues and paves the path
for 2nd and further improvements.
The most visible change introduced with this patch is that we start
using mpu_rgn_info array (as it was supposed?), so change in MPU setup
done by boot CPU is recorded there and feed to secondaries. It
allows us to keep minimal region setup for boot CPU and do the rest in
C. Since we start programming MPU regions in C evaluation of MPU
constrains (number of regions supported and minimal region order) can
be done once, which in turn open possibility to free-up "probe"
region early.

If CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y, the kernel log is spammed with a few

c0800300 is the return address from the last subroutine call (to

With printch() the console messages are sent out one character at a time
which is agonizingly slow especially with semihosting as the whole trap
intercept, remote byte access, and system resume danse is performed for
every single character across a relatively slow remote debug connection.

With a kernel containing both DT and atag support, the diagnostics
output when the dtb is missing or corrupt assume that we're trying
to boot using atags and the machine ID, and only print the machine

Move the message into arch/arm/kernel/setup.c, and print the address
of the dtb/atag list, and the first 16 bytes of memory of the dtb or
atag list.
This allows us to see whether the dtb was corrupted in some way,

Disable the generic address limit check in favor of an architecture
specific optimized implementation. The generic implementation using
pending work flags did not work well with ARM and alignment faults.
The address limit is checked on each syscall return path to user-mode
path as well as the irq user-mode return function. If the address limit
was changed, a function is called to report data corruption (stopping
the kernel or process based on configuration).
The address limit check has to be done before any pending work because
they can reset the address limit and the process is killed using a
SIGKILL signal. For example the lkdtm address limit check does not work
because the signal to kill the process will reset the user-mode address
limit.

The work pending loop can call set_fs after addr_limit_user_check
removed the _TIF_FSCHECK flag. This may happen at anytime based on how
ARM handles alignment exceptions. It leads to an infinite loop condition.
After discussion, it has been agreed that the generic approach is not

patch will be replaced by an architecture specific implementation. The
work flag approach will be kept for other architectures.

The .data segment stored in ROM is only copied to RAM once at boot time
and never referenced afterwards. This is arguably a suboptimal usage of
ROM resources.
This patch allows for compressing the .data segment before storing it
into ROM and decompressing it to RAM rather than simply copying it,
saving on precious ROM space.
Because global data is not available yet (obviously) we must allocate
decompressor workspace memory on the stack. The .bss area is used as a
stack area for that purpose before it is cleared. The required stack
frame is 9568 bytes for __inflate_kernel_data() alone, so make sure
the .bss is large enough to cope with that plus extra room for called
functions or fail the build.
Those numbers were picked arbitrarily based on the above 9568 byte
stack frame:
10240 (2.5 * PAGE_SIZE): used to override -Wframe-larger-than whose
default value is 1024.
12288 (3 * PAGE_SIZE): minimum .bss size to contain the stack.

The XIP linker script has several problems:
- PAGE_ALIGNED_DATA is missing and is likely to end up somewhere with
the wrong LMA.
- BUG_TABLE definitely has the wrong LMA, it is not copied to RAM, and
its VMA is unaccounted for and likely to clash with dynamic memory
usage.
- TCM usage is similarly broken.
- PERCPU_SECTION is left in ROM despite being written to.
Let's use generic macros for those things and locate them appropriately.
Incidentally, those macros are usable with a LMA != VMA already by
properly defining LOAD_OFFSET.
TCM is not fixed here. It never worked in a XIP configuration anyway, so
that can wait until another round of cleanups.

Our .data section is missing PAGE_ALIGNED_DATA() which contains,
amongst other things, the vdso page. This creates a System.map that
looks like this:
c15769a8 D _edata
c1577000 d vdso_data_store
c1578000 D __start___bug_table
c1580544 D __stop___bug_table
c1580544 B __bss_start
By using RW_DATA_SECTION() we pick whatever generic sections might be
added in the future and have page-aligned data next to other strongly
aligned data. Furthermore we now include the entire thing, including the
bug table, in the data accounting surrounded by _sdata/_edata.
While at it let's also remplace the open coded .init.data by its

Let's use optimized routines such as memcpy to copy .data and memzero
to clear .bss in the startup code instead of doing it one word at a
time. Those routines don't use any global data so they're safe to use
even if .data and .bss segments are not initialized.
In the .data copy case a temporary stack is installed in the .bss area
as the actual kernel stack is located within the copied data area. The
XIP kernel linker script ensures a 8 byte alignment for that purpose.
Finally, make the .data copy and related pointers surrounded by
CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL to make it obvious what it is all about. This will
allow for further cleanups in the non-XIP linker script.

on ARM systems with an MMU.
The default for CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF_FDPIC is also set to n if the regular
ELF loader is already configured so not to force FDPIC support on
everyone. Given that CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF depends on CONFIG_MMU, this means
CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF_FDPIC will still default to y when !MMU.
