At Linux Plumbers, Andy Lutomirski approached me and pointed out that the
function call syscall_get_arguments() implemented in x86 was horribly
written and not optimized for the standard case of passing in 0 and 6 for
the starting index and the number of system calls to get. When looking at
all the users of this function, I discovered that all instances pass in only
0 and 6 for these arguments. Instead of having this function handle
different cases that are never used, simply rewrite it to return the first 6
arguments of a system call.
This should help out the performance of tracing system calls by ptrace,
ftrace and perf.

Pull s390 fixes from Martin Schwidefsky:
"Improvements and bug fixes for 5.1-rc2:
- Fix early free of the channel program in vfio

the driver still attached that queued the message

of ld.so is placed after the main stack
- Add a rolling average for the steal time of a CPU, this will be
needed for KVM to decide when to do busy waiting

Function __hw_perf_event_init() used a CPU variable without

The variable is now accessed in proper context. Use
get_cpu_var()/put_cpu_var() pair to disable
preemption during access.
As the hardware authorization settings apply to all CPUs, it
does not matter which CPU is used to check the authorization setting.
Remove the event->count assignment. It is not needed as function
perf_event_alloc() allocates memory for the event with kzalloc() and
thus count is already set to zero.

Currently, every arch/*/include/uapi/asm/Kbuild explicitly includes
the common Kbuild.asm file. Factor out the duplicated include directives
to scripts/Makefile.asm-generic so that no architecture would opt out
of the mandatory-y mechanism.
um is not forced to include mandatory-y since it is a very exceptional
case which does not support UAPI.

The generic-y is redundant under the following condition:
- arch has its own implementation
- the same header is added to generated-y
- the same header is added to mandatory-y
If a redundant generic-y is found, the warning like follows is displayed:
scripts/Makefile.asm-generic:20: redundant generic-y found in arch/arm/include/asm/Kbuild: timex.h
I fixed up arch Kbuild files found by this.

below with manual massaging of format strings.

The current AP bus implementation periodically polls the AP configuration
to detect changes. When the AP configuration is dynamically changed via the
SE or an SCLP instruction, the changes will not be reflected to sysfs until
the next time the AP configuration is polled. The CHSC architecture
provides a Store Event Information (SEI) command to make notification of an
AP configuration change. This patch introduces a handler to process
notification from the CHSC SEI command by immediately kicking off an AP bus
scan-after-event.

There are several early memory allocations in arch/ code that use
memblock_phys_alloc() to allocate memory, convert the returned physical
address to the virtual address and then set the allocated memory to
zero.
Exactly the same behaviour can be achieved simply by calling
memblock_alloc(): it allocates the memory in the same way as
memblock_phys_alloc(), then it performs the phys_to_virt() conversion
and clears the allocated memory.
Replace the longer sequence with a simpler call to memblock_alloc().

For a 64-bit process the randomization of the program break is quite
large with 1GB. That is as big as the randomization of the anonymous
mapping base, for a test case started with '/lib/ld64.so.1 <exec>'
it can happen that the heap is placed after the stack. To avoid
this limit the program break randomization to 32MB for 64-bit and
keep 8MB for 31-bit.

The VDSO is part of the kernel image and therefore the struct pages are
marked as reserved during boot.
As we install a special mapping, the actual struct pages will never be
exposed to MM via the page tables. We can therefore leave the pages
marked as reserved.

Patch series "NestMMU pte upgrade workaround for mprotect", v5.
We can upgrade pte access (R -> RW transition) via mprotect. We need to
make sure we follow the recommended pte update sequence as outlined in
commit bd5050e38aec ("powerpc/mm/radix: Change pte relax sequence to
handle nest MMU hang") for such updates. This patch series does that.
This patch (of 5):
Some architectures may want to call flush_tlb_range from these helpers.

Every in-kernel use of this function defined it to KERNEL_DS (either as
an actual define, or as an inline function). It's an entirely
historical artifact, and long long long ago used to actually read the
segment selector valueof '%ds' on x86.
Which in the kernel is always KERNEL_DS.
Inspired by a patch from Jann Horn that just did this for a very small
subset of users (the ones in fs/), along with Al who suggested a script.
I then just took it to the logical extreme and removed all the remaining
gunk.
Roughly scripted with
git grep -l '(get_ds())' -- :^tools/ | xargs sed -i 's/(get_ds())/(KERNEL_DS)/'
git grep -lw 'get_ds' -- :^tools/ | xargs sed -i '/^#define get_ds()/d'
plus manual fixups to remove a few unusual usage patterns, the couple of
inline function cases and to fix up a comment that had become stale.
The 'get_ds()' function remains in an x86 kvm selftest, since in user
space it actually does something relevant.

Introduce a PMU device named cpum_cf_diag. It extracts the
values of all counters in all authorized counter sets and stores
them as event raw data. This is done with the STORE CPU COUNTER
MULTIPLE instruction to speed up access. All counter sets
fit into one buffer. The values of each counter are taken
when the event is started on the performance sub-system and when
the event is stopped.
This results in counter values available at the start and
at the end of the measurement time frame. The difference is
calculated for each counter. The differences of all
counters are then saved as event raw data in the perf.data
file.
The counter values are accompanied by the time stamps
when the counter set was started and when the counter set
was stopped. This data is part of a trailer entry which
describes the time frame, counter set version numbers,
CPU speed, and machine type for later analysis.

Add support for the STORE CPU COUNTER MULTIPLE instruction to extract
a range of counters from a counter set.
An assembler macro is used to create the instruction opcode because
the counter set identifier is part of the instruction and, thus,
cannot be easily specified as parameter.

Introduce a minimal interface for doing counter measurements of small
units of work within the kernel. Use the kernel_cpumcf_begin() function
start a measurement session and, later, stop it with kernel_cpumcf_end().
During the measreument session, you can enable and start/stop counter sets
by using ctr_set_* functions. To make these changes effective use the
lcctl() function. You can then use the ecctr() function to extract counters
from the different counter sets.
Please note that you have to check whether the counter sets to be enabled
are authorized.
Note that when a measurement session is active, other users cannot perform
counter measurements. In such cases, kernel_cpumcf_begin() indicates this
with returning -EBUSY. If the counter facility is not available,
kernel_cpumcf_begin() returns -ENODEV.
Note that this interface is restricted to the current CPU and, thus,
preemption must be turned off.
Example:
u32 state, err;
u64 cycles, insn;
err = kernel_cpumcf_begin();
if (err)
goto out_busy;
state = 0;
ctr_set_enable(&state, CPUMF_CTR_SET_BASIC);
ctr_set_start(&state, CPUMF_CTR_SET_BASIC);
err = lcctl(state);
if (err)
goto ;
/* ... do your work ... */
ctr_set_stop(&state, CPUMF_CTR_SET_BASIC);
err = lcctl(state);
if (err)
goto out;
cycles = insn = 0;
ecctr(0, &cycles);
ecctr(1, &insn);
/* ... */
kernel_cpumcf_end();
out_busy:

During a __kernel_cpumcf_begin()/end() session, save measurement alerts
for the counter facility in the per-CPU cpu_cf_events variable.
Users can obtain and, optionally, clear the alerts by calling
kernel_cpumcf_alert() to specifically handle alerts.

Make the struct cpu_cf_events and the respective per-CPU variable available
to in-kernel users. Access to this per-CPU variable shall be done between
the calls to __kernel_cpumcf_begin() and __kernel_cpumcf_end().

Rename the struct cpu_hw_events to cpu_cf_events and also the respective
per-CPU variable to make its name more clear. No functional changes.

Prepare the counter facility support to be used by other in-kernel
users. The first step introduces the __kernel_cpumcf_begin() and
__kernel_cpumcf_end() functions to reserve the counter facility
for doing measurements and to release after the measurements are
done.
