Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Yet another big pile of changes:
- More year 2038 work from Arnd slowly reaching the point where we
need to think about the syscalls themself.
- A new timer function which allows to conditionally (re)arm a timer
only when it's either not running or the new expiry time is sooner
than the armed expiry time. This allows to use a single timer for
multiple timeout requirements w/o caring about the first expiry
time at the call site.
- A new NMI safe accessor to clock real time for the printk timestamp
work. Can be used by tracing, perf as well if required.
- A large number of timer setup conversions from Kees which got
collected here because either maintainers requested so or they
simply got ignored. As Kees pointed out already there are a few
trivial merge conflicts and some redundant commits which was
unavoidable due to the size of this conversion effort.
- Avoid a redundant iteration in the timer wheel softirq processing.
- Provide a mechanism to treat RTC implementations depending on their
hardware properties, i.e. don't inflict the write at the 0.5
seconds boundary which originates from the PC CMOS RTC to all RTCs.
No functional change as drivers need to be updated separately.
- The usual small updates to core code clocksource drivers. Nothing
really exciting"

Pull initial SPDX identifiers from Greg KH:
"License cleanup: add SPDX license identifiers to some files
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.

Commit 96edd61dcf44362d3ef0bed1a5361e0ac7886a63 ("xen/balloon: don't
online new memory initially") introduced a regression when booting a
HVM domain with memory less than mem-max: instead of ballooning down
immediately the system would try to use the memory up to mem-max
resulting in Xen crashing the domain.
For HVM domains the current size will be reflected in Xenstore node
memory/static-max instead of memory/target.
Additionally we have to trigger the ballooning process at once.

In case gntdev_mmap() succeeds only partially in mapping grant pages
it will leave some vital information uninitialized needed later for
cleanup. This will lead to an out of bounds array access when unmapping
the already mapped pages.
So just initialize the data needed for unmapping the pages a little bit
earlier.

GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d8ff3 ("Group short-lived
and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE. It's
primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is
short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close
together and prevent long term fragmentation. As much as this sounds
like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the
highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag. How long is temporary? Can the
context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is
no good answer for those questions.
The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL |
__GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of
the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory. So
this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits.
I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag
with a specific justification. I suspect most of them just copied from
other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to
use without any measuring. This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just
motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning.
I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially
those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from
confusion and abuse. Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and
replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL. Please note that
SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and
so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention.
I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm
allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and
only then add users with proper justification.
This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it
turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic. It
seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not
all) its current users. The follow up discussion has revealed that
opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between
developers. So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a
semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag
and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term
allocations.

Pull driver core update from Greg KH:
"Here is the "big" driver core update for 4.14-rc1.
It's really not all that big, the largest thing here being some
firmware tests to help ensure that that crazy api is working properly.
There's also a new uevent for when a driver is bound or unbound from a
device, fixing a hole in the driver model that's been there since the
very beginning. Many thanks to Dmitry for being persistent and
pointing out how wrong I was about this all along :)
Patches for the new uevents are already in the systemd tree, if people
want to play around with them.
Otherwise just a number of other small api changes and updates here,
nothing major. All of these patches have been in linux-next for a
while with no reported issues"

Commit aba831a69632 ("xen: remove tests for pvh mode in pure pv paths")
removed XENFEAT_auto_translated_physmap test in xen_alloc_p2m_entry()
since it is assumed that the routine is never called by non-PV guests.
However, alloc_xenballooned_pages() may make this call on a PVH guest.
Prevent this from happening by adding XENFEAT_auto_translated_physmap

Commit 971a69db7dc0 ("Xen: don't warn about 2-byte wchar_t in efi")
added the --no-wchar-size-warning to the Makefile to avoid this
harmless warning:
arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: warning: drivers/xen/efi.o uses 2-byte wchar_t yet the output is to use 4-byte wchar_t; use of wchar_t values across objects may fail
Changing kbuild to use thin archives instead of recursive linking
unfortunately brings the same warning back during the final link.
The kernel does not use wchar_t string literals at this point, and
xen does not use wchar_t at all (only efi_char16_t), so the flag
has no effect, but as pointed out by Jan Beulich, adding a wchar_t
string literal would be bad here.
Since wchar_t is always defined as u16, independent of the toolchain
default, always passing -fshort-wchar is correct and lets us
remove the Xen specific hack along with fixing the warning.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen into for-linus
Pull xen block changes from Konrad:
Two fixes, both of them spotted by Amazon:
1) Fix in Xen-blkfront caused by the re-write in 4.8 time-frame.
2) Fix in the xen_biovec_phys_mergeable which allowed guest
requests when using NVMe - to slurp up more data than allowed
leading to an XSA (which has been made public today).
|
|
The current test for bio vec merging is not fully accurate and can be
tricked into merging bios when certain grant combinations are used.
The result of these malicious bio merges is a bio that extends past
the memory page used by any of the originating bios.
Take into account the following scenario, where a guest creates two
grant references that point to the same mfn, ie: grant 1 -> mfn A,
grant 2 -> mfn A.
These references are then used in a PV block request, and mapped by
the backend domain, thus obtaining two different pfns that point to
the same mfn, pfn B -> mfn A, pfn C -> mfn A.
If those grants happen to be used in two consecutive sectors of a disk
IO operation becoming two different bios in the backend domain, the
checks in xen_biovec_phys_mergeable will succeed, because bfn1 == bfn2
(they both point to the same mfn). However due to the bio merging,
the backend domain will end up with a bio that expands past mfn A into
mfn A + 1.
Fix this by making sure the check in xen_biovec_phys_mergeable takes
into account the offset and the length of the bio, this basically
replicates whats done in __BIOVEC_PHYS_MERGEABLE using mfns (bus
addresses). While there also remove the usage of
__BIOVEC_PHYS_MERGEABLE, since that's already checked by the callers
of xen_biovec_phys_mergeable.

Here is a device has xen-pirq-MSI interrupt. Dom0 might lost interrupt
during driver irq_disable/irq_enable. Here is the scenario,
1. irq_disable -> disable_dynirq -> mask_evtchn(irq channel)
2. dev interrupt raised by HW and Xen mark its evtchn as pending
3. irq_enable -> startup_pirq -> eoi_pirq ->
clear_evtchn(channel of irq) -> clear pending status
4. consume_one_event process the irq event without pending bit assert
which result in interrupt lost once
5. No HW interrupt raising anymore.
Now use enable_dynirq for enable_pirq of xen_pirq_chip to remove
eoi_pirq when irq_enable.

When starting the xenwatch thread a theoretical deadlock situation is
possible:
xs_init() contains:
task = kthread_run(xenwatch_thread, NULL, "xenwatch");
if (IS_ERR(task))
return PTR_ERR(task);
xenwatch_pid = task->pid;
And xenwatch_thread() does:
mutex_lock(&xenwatch_mutex);
...
event->handle->callback();
...
mutex_unlock(&xenwatch_mutex);
The callback could call unregister_xenbus_watch() which does:
...
if (current->pid != xenwatch_pid)
mutex_lock(&xenwatch_mutex);
...
In case a watch is firing before xenwatch_pid could be set and the
callback of that watch unregisters a watch, then a self-deadlock would
occur.
Avoid this by setting xenwatch_pid in xenwatch_thread().

Instead of fiddling with masking the event channels during suspend
and resume handling let do the irq subsystem do its job. It will do
the mask and unmask operations as needed.

Remove unnecessary static on local variables last_frontswap_pages and
tgt_frontswap_pages. Such variables are initialized before being used,
on every execution path throughout the function. The statics have no
benefit and, removing them reduce the code size.
This issue was detected using Coccinelle and the following semantic patch:
@bad exists@
position p;
identifier x;
type T;
@@
static T x@p;
...
x = <+...x...+>
@@
identifier x;
expression e;
type T;
position p != bad.p;
@@
-static
T x@p;
... when != x
when strict
?x = e;
You can see a significant difference in the code size after executing
the size command, before and after the code change:
before:
text data bss dec hex filename
5633 3452 384 9469 24fd drivers/xen/xen-selfballoon.o
after:
text data bss dec hex filename
5576 3308 256 9140 23b4 drivers/xen/xen-selfballoon.o

On systems that are not booted as a Xen domain, the xenfs driver prints
the following message during boot.
[ 3.460595] xenfs: not registering filesystem on non-xen platform
As the user chose not to boot a Xen domain, this message does not
provide useful information. Drop this message.

When setting up the Xenstore watch for the memory target size the new
watch will fire at once. Don't try to reach the configured target size
by onlining new memory in this case, as the current memory size will
be smaller in almost all cases due to e.g. BIOS reserved pages.
Onlining new memory will lead to more problems e.g. undesired conflicts
with NVMe devices meant to be operated as block devices.
Instead remember the difference between target size and current size
when the watch fires for the first time and apply it to any further
size changes, too.
In order to avoid races between balloon.c and xen-balloon.c init calls
do the xen-balloon.c initialization from balloon.c.

log a message when we enter this situation:
1) we already allocated the max number of available grants from hypervisor
and
2) we still need more (but the request fails because of 1)).
Sometimes the lack of grants causes IO hangs in xen_blkfront devices.
Adding this log would help debuging.
