Pull x86 mm updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main x86 MM changes in this cycle were:
- continued native kernel PCID support preparation patches to the TLB
flushing code (Andy Lutomirski)
- various fixes related to 32-bit compat syscall returning address
over 4Gb in applications, launched from 64-bit binaries - motivated
by C/R frameworks such as Virtuozzo. (Dmitry Safonov)
- continued Intel 5-level paging enablement: in particular the
conversion of x86 GUP to the generic GUP code. (Kirill A. Shutemov)

Pull uaccess unification updates from Al Viro:
"This is the uaccess unification pile. It's _not_ the end of uaccess
work, but the next batch of that will go into the next cycle. This one
mostly takes copy_from_user() and friends out of arch/* and gets the
zero-padding behaviour in sync for all architectures.
Dealing with the nocache/writethrough mess is for the next cycle;
fortunately, that's x86-only. Same for cleanups in iov_iter.c (I am
sold on access_ok() in there, BTW; just not in this pile), same for
reducing __copy_... callsites, strn*... stuff, etc. - there will be a

Prior to commit 2337d207288f ("powerpc/64: CONFIG_RELOCATABLE support for hmi
interrupts"), the branch from hmi_exception_early() to hmi_exception_realmode()
was just a bl hmi_exception_realmode, which the linker would turn into a bl to
the local entry point of hmi_exception_realmode. This was broken when
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y because hmi_exception_realmode() is not in the low part of
the kernel text that is copied down to 0x0.
But in fixing that, we added a new bug on little endian kernels. Because the
branch is now a bctrl when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, we branch to the global entry
point of hmi_exception_realmode(). The global entry point must be called with
r12 containing the address of hmi_exception_realmode(), because it uses that
value to calculate the TOC value (r2).
This may manifest as a checkstop, because we take a junk value from r12 which
came from HSRR1, add a small constant to it and then use that as the TOC
pointer. The HSRR1 value will have 0x9 as the top nibble, which puts it above
RAM and somewhere in MMIO space.
Fix it by changing the BRANCH_LINK_TO_FAR() macro to always use r12 to load the
label we're branching to. This means r12 will be setup correctly on LE, fixing
this bug, and r12 is also volatile across function calls on BE so it's a good
choice anyway.

Josh suggested moving the _ONCE logic inside the trap handler, using a
bit in the bug_entry::flags field, avoiding the need for the extra
variable.
Sadly this only works for WARN_ON_ONCE(), since the others have
printk() statements prior to triggering the trap.
Still, this saves a fair amount of text and some data:

Merge 5-level page table prep from Kirill Shutemov:
"Here's relatively low-risk part of 5-level paging patchset. Merging it
now will make x86 5-level paging enabling in v4.12 easier.
The first patch is actually x86-specific: detect 5-level paging
support. It boils down to single define.
The rest of patchset converts Linux MMU abstraction from 4- to 5-level
paging.
Enabling of new abstraction in most cases requires adding single line
of code in arch-specific code. The rest is taken care by asm-generic/.
Changes to mm/ code are mostly mechanical: add support for new page
table level -- p4d_t -- where we deal with pud_t now.
v2:
- fix build on microblaze (Michal);
- comment for __ARCH_HAS_5LEVEL_HACK in kasan_populate_zero_shadow();

Add POWER9 machine check handler. There are several new types of errors

This doesn't attempt to reuse any of the P7/8 defines or functions,

a table driven approach.

We use pte_write() to check whethwer the pte entry is writable. This is
mostly used to later mark the pte read only if it is writable. The other
use of pte_write() is to check whether the pte_entry is writable so that
hardware page table entry can be marked accordingly. This is used in kvm
where we look at qemu page table entry and update hardware hash page table
for the guest with correct write enable bit.
With the above, for the first usage we should also check the savedwrite
bit so that we can correctly clear the savedwite bit. For the later, we
add a new variant __pte_write().
With this we can revert write_protect_page part of 595cd8f256d2 ("mm/ksm:
handle protnone saved writes when making page write protect"). But I left
it as it is as an example code for savedwrite check.

We need to mark pages of parent process read only on fork. Numa fault
pte needs a protnone ptes variant with saved write flag set. On fork we
need to make sure we remove the saved write bit. Instead of adding the
protnone check in the caller update ptep_set_wrprotect variants to clear
savedwrite bit.
Without this we see random segfaults in application on fork.

If an architecture uses 4level-fixup.h we don't need to do anything as
it includes 5level-fixup.h.
If an architecture uses pgtable-nop*d.h, define __ARCH_USE_5LEVEL_HACK
before inclusion of the header. It makes asm-generic code to use
5level-fixup.h.
If an architecture has 4-level paging or folds levels on its own,
include 5level-fixup.h directly.

On POWER9 the ibm,client-architecture-support (CAS) negotiation process
has been updated to change how the host to guest negotiation is done for
the new hash/radix mmu as well as the nest mmu, process tables and guest
translation shootdown (GTSE).
This is documented in the unreleased PAPR ACR "CAS option vector
additions for P9".
The host tells the guest which options it supports in
ibm,arch-vec-5-platform-support. The guest then chooses a subset of these
to request in the CAS call and these are agreed to in the
ibm,architecture-vec-5 property of the chosen node.
Thus we read ibm,arch-vec-5-platform-support and make our selection before
calling CAS. We then parse the ibm,architecture-vec-5 property of the
chosen node to check whether we should run as hash or radix.
ibm,arch-vec-5-platform-support format:
index value pairs: <index, val> ... <index, val>
index: Option vector 5 byte number
val: Some representation of supported values

This impacts all nxp (ex-freescale) 32-bit booke platforms.
This was caused by the change of hugepd_t.pd from signed to unsigned,
and the update to the nohash version of hugepd_ok(). Previously
hugepd_ok() could exclude all non-huge and NULL pgds using > 0, whereas
now we need to explicitly check that the value is not zero and also that
PD_HUGE is *clear*.
This isn't protected by the pgd_none() check in __find_linux_pte_or_hugepte()
because on 32-bit we use pgtable-nopud.h, which causes the pgd_none()
check to be always false.

Commit 09206b600c76 ("powernv: Pass PSSCR value and mask to
power9_idle_stop") added additional code in power_enter_stop() to
distinguish between stop requests whose PSSCR had ESL=EC=1 from those
which did not. When ESL=EC=1, we do a forward-jump to a location
labelled by "1", which had the code to handle the ESL=EC=1 case.
Unfortunately just a couple of instructions before this label, is the
macro IDLE_STATE_ENTER_SEQ() which also has a label "1" in its
expansion.
As a result, the current code can result in directly executing stop
instruction for deep stop requests with PSSCR ESL=EC=1, without saving
the hypervisor state.
Fix this BUG by labeling the location that handles ESL=EC=1 case with
a more descriptive label ".Lhandle_esl_ec_set" (local label suggestion
a la .Lxx from Anton Blanchard).
While at it, rename the label "2" labelling the location of the code
handling entry into deep stop states with ".Lhandle_deep_stop".
For a good measure, change the label in IDLE_STATE_ENTER_SEQ() macro
to an not-so commonly used value in order to avoid similar mishaps in
the future.

This fixes some bugs in the code that walks the guest's page tables.
These bugs cause MMIO emulation to fail whenever the guest is in
virtial mode (MMU on), leading to the guest hanging if it tried to
access a virtio device.
The first bug was that when reading the guest's process table, we were
using the whole of arch->process_table, not just the field that contains
the process table base address. The second bug was that the mask used
when reading the process table entry to get the radix tree base address,
RPDB_MASK, had the wrong value.

Often all is needed is these small helpers, instead of compiler.h or a
full kprobes.h. This is important for asm helpers, in fact even some
asm/kprobes.h make use of these helpers... instead just keep a generic
asm file with helpers useful for asm code with the least amount of
clutter as possible.
Likewise we need now to also address what to do about this file for both
when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES, and when they do not. Then
for when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES but have disabled
CONFIG_KPROBES.
Right now most asm/kprobes.h do not have guards against CONFIG_KPROBES,
this means most architecture code cannot include asm/kprobes.h safely.
Correct this and add guards for architectures missing them.
Additionally provide architectures that not have kprobes support with
the default asm-generic solution. This lets us force asm/kprobes.h on
the header include/linux/kprobes.h always, but most importantly we can
now safely include just asm/kprobes.h on architecture code without
bringing the full kitchen sink of header files.
Two architectures already provided a guard against CONFIG_KPROBES on its
kprobes.h: sh, arch. The rest of the architectures needed gaurds added.
We avoid including any not-needed headers on asm/kprobes.h unless
kprobes have been enabled.
In a subsequent atomic change we can try now to remove compiler.h from
include/linux/kprobes.h.
During this sweep I've also identified a few architectures defining a
common macro needed for both kprobes and ftrace, that of the definition
of the breakput instruction up. Some refer to this as
BREAKPOINT_INSTRUCTION. This must be kept outside of the #ifdef
CONFIG_KPROBES guard.

With this our protnone becomes a present pte with READ/WRITE/EXEC bit
cleared. By default we also set _PAGE_PRIVILEGED on such pte. This is
now used to help us identify a protnone pte that as saved write bit.
For such pte, we will clear the _PAGE_PRIVILEGED bit. The pte still
remain non-accessible from both user and kernel.

On 32-bit powerpc the ELF PLT sections of binaries (built with
--bss-plt, or with a toolchain which defaults to it) look like this:
[17] .sbss NOBITS 0002aff8 01aff8 000014 00 WA 0 0 4
[18] .plt NOBITS 0002b00c 01aff8 000084 00 WAX 0 0 4
[19] .bss NOBITS 0002b090 01aff8 0000a4 00 WA 0 0 4
Which results in an ELF load header:
Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr FileSiz MemSiz Flg Align
LOAD 0x019c70 0x00029c70 0x00029c70 0x01388 0x014c4 RWE 0x10000
This is all correct, the load region containing the PLT is marked as
executable. Note that the PLT starts at 0002b00c but the file mapping
ends at 0002aff8, so the PLT falls in the 0 fill section described by
the load header, and after a page boundary.
Unfortunately the generic ELF loader ignores the X bit in the load
headers when it creates the 0 filled non-file backed mappings. It
assumes all of these mappings are RW BSS sections, which is not the case
for PPC.
gcc/ld has an option (--secure-plt) to not do this, this is said to
incur a small performance penalty.
Currently, to support 32-bit binaries with PLT in BSS kernel maps
*entire brk area* with executable rights for all binaries, even
--secure-plt ones.
Stop doing that.
Teach the ELF loader to check the X bit in the relevant load header and
create 0 filled anonymous mappings that are executable if the load
header requests that.
Test program showing the difference in /proc/$PID/maps:
int main() {
char buf[16*1024];
char *p = malloc(123); /* make "[heap]" mapping appear */
int fd = open("/proc/self/maps", O_RDONLY);
int len = read(fd, buf, sizeof(buf));
write(1, buf, len);
printf("%p\n", p);
return 0;
}

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"Highlights include:
- Support for direct mapped LPC on POWER9, giving Linux direct access
to devices that may be on there such as a UART.
- Memory hotplug support for the Power9 Radix MMU.
- Add new AUX vectors describing the processor's cache geometry, to
be used by glibc.
- The ability for a guest to ask the hypervisor to resize the guest's
hash table, and in addition support for doing so automatically when
memory is hotplugged into/out-of the guest. This allows the hash
table to be sized based on the current memory usage of the guest,
rather than the maximum possible memory usage.
- Implementation of optprobes (kprobe optimisation) for powerpc.
In addition there's the topic branch shared with the KVM tree, which
includes support for guests to use the Radix MMU on Power9.

With the inclusion of commit 333f7b76865b ("powerpc/pseries: Implement
indexed-count hotplug memory add") and commit 753843471cbb
("powerpc/pseries: Implement indexed-count hotplug memory remove"), we
now have complete handling of the RTAS hotplug event format as described
by PAPR via ACR "PAPR Changes for Hotplug RTAS Events".
This capability is indicated by byte 6, bit 2 (5 in IBM numbering) of
architecture option vector 5, and allows for greater control over
cpu/memory/pci hot plug/unplug operations.
Existing pseries kernels will utilize this capability based on the
existence of the /event-sources/hot-plug-events DT property, so we
only need to advertise it via CAS and do not need a corresponding
FW_FEATURE_* value to test for.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this (fairly busy) cycle were:
- There was a class of scheduler bugs related to forgetting to update
the rq-clock timestamp which can cause weird and hard to debug
problems, so there's a new debug facility for this: which uncovered
a whole lot of bugs which convinced us that we want to keep the
debug facility.
(Peter Zijlstra, Matt Fleming)
- Various cputime related updates: eliminate cputime and use u64
nanoseconds directly, simplify and improve the arch interfaces,
implement delayed accounting more widely, etc. - (Frederic
Weisbecker)
- Move code around for better structure plus cleanups (Ingo Molnar)
- Move IO schedule accounting deeper into the scheduler plus related
changes to improve the situation (Tejun Heo)
- ... plus a round of sched/rt and sched/deadline fixes, plus other
fixes, updats and cleanups"

Commit b91e1302ad9b8 ("mm: optimize PageWaiters bit use for
unlock_page()") added a special bitop function to speed up
unlock_page(). Implement this for 64-bit powerpc.
This improves the unlock_page() core code from this:
li 9,1
lwsync
1: ldarx 10,0,3,0
andc 10,10,9
stdcx. 10,0,3
bne- 1b
ori 2,2,0
ld 9,0(3)
andi. 10,9,0x80
beqlr
li 4,0
b wake_up_page_bit
To this:
li 10,1
lwsync
1: ldarx 9,0,3,0
andc 9,9,10
stdcx. 9,0,3
bne- 1b
andi. 10,9,0x80
beqlr
li 4,0
b wake_up_page_bit
In a test of elapsed time for dd writing into 16GB of already-dirty
pagecache on a POWER8 with 4K pages, which has one unlock_page per 4kB
this patch reduced overhead by 1.1%:
N Min Max Median Avg Stddev
x 19 2.578 2.619 2.594 2.595 0.011
+ 19 2.552 2.592 2.564 2.565 0.008
Difference at 95.0% confidence
-0.030 +/- 0.006
-1.142% +/- 0.243%

Indexed-count add for memory hotplug guarantees that a contiguous block
of <count> lmbs beginning at a specified <drc index> will be assigned,
any LMBs in this range that are not already assigned will be DLPAR added.
Because of Qemu's per-DIMM memory management, the addition of a contiguous
block of memory currently requires a series of individual calls to add
each LMB in the block. Indexed-count add reduces this series of calls to
a single call for the entire block.
