Commit 5ace77e0b41a ("nios2: remove __ioremap") removed the following code,
with the argument that cacheflag is always 0 and the expression would
therefore always be false.
if (IS_MAPPABLE_UNCACHEABLE(phys_addr) &&
IS_MAPPABLE_UNCACHEABLE(last_addr) &&
!(cacheflag & _PAGE_CACHED))
return (void __iomem *)(CONFIG_NIOS2_IO_REGION_BASE + phys_addr);
This did not take the "!" in the expression into account. Result is that
nios2 images no longer boot. Restoring the removed code fixes the problem.

Pull sysctl system call removal from Eric Biederman:
"As far as I can tell we have reached the point where no one enables
the sysctl system call anymore. It still is enabled in a few
defconfigs but they are mostly the rarely used one and in asking
people about that it was more cut & paste enabled than anything else.
This is single commit that just deletes code. Leaving just enough code
so that the deprecated sysctl warning continues to be printed. If my
analysis turns out to be wrong and someone actually cares it will be
easy to revert this commit and have the system call again.
There was one new xtensa defconfig in linux-next that enabled the
system call this cycle and when asked about it the maintainer of the
code replied that it was not enabled on purpose. As of today's
linux-next tree that defconfig no longer enables the system call.
What we saw in the review discussion was that if we go a step farther
than my patch and mess with uapi headers there are pieces of code that
won't compile, but nothing minds the system call actually disappearing
from the kernel"

This system call has been deprecated almost since it was introduced, and
in a survey of the linux distributions I can no longer find any of them
that enable CONFIG_SYSCTL_SYSCALL. The only indication that I can find
that anyone might care is that a few of the defconfigs in the kernel
enable CONFIG_SYSCTL_SYSCALL. However this appears in only 31 of 414
defconfigs in the kernel, so I suspect this symbols presence is simply
because it is harmless to include rather than because it is necessary.
As there appear to be no users of the sysctl system call, remove the
code. As this removes one of the few uses of the internal kernel mount
of proc I hope this allows for even more simplifications of the proc
filesystem.

own default versions of ioremap_nocache, ioremap_wt and ioremap_wc
that point back to plain ioremap directly or indirectly. Remove these
definitions and rely on asm-generic/io.h instead. For this to work
the backup ioremap_* defintions needs to be changed to purely cpp

The naming of pgtable_page_{ctor,dtor}() seems to have confused a few
people, and until recently arm64 used these erroneously/pointlessly for
other levels of page table.
To make it incredibly clear that these only apply to the PTE level, and to
align with the naming of pgtable_pmd_page_{ctor,dtor}(), let's rename them
to pgtable_pte_page_{ctor,dtor}().
These changes were generated with the following shell script:
----
git grep -lw 'pgtable_page_.tor' | while read FILE; do
sed -i '{s/pgtable_page_ctor/pgtable_pte_page_ctor/}' $FILE;
sed -i '{s/pgtable_page_dtor/pgtable_pte_page_dtor/}' $FILE;
done
----
... with the documentation re-flowed to remain under 80 columns, and
whitespace fixed up in macros to keep backslashes aligned.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Both pgtable_cache_init() and pgd_cache_init() are used to initialize kmem
cache for page table allocations on several architectures that do not use
PAGE_SIZE tables for one or more levels of the page table hierarchy.
Most architectures do not implement these functions and use __weak default
NOP implementation of pgd_cache_init(). Since there is no such default
for pgtable_cache_init(), its empty stub is duplicated among most
architectures.
Rename the definitions of pgd_cache_init() to pgtable_cache_init() and
drop empty stubs of pgtable_cache_init().

Patch series "mm: remove quicklist page table caches".
A while ago Nicholas proposed to remove quicklist page table caches [1].
I've rebased his patch on the curren upstream and switched ia64 and sh to
use generic versions of PTE allocation.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190711030339.20892-1-npiggin@gmail.com
This patch (of 3):
Remove page table allocator "quicklists". These have been around for a
long time, but have not got much traction in the last decade and are only
used on ia64 and sh architectures.
The numbers in the initial commit look interesting but probably don't
apply anymore. If anybody wants to resurrect this it's in the git
history, but it's unhelpful to have this code and divergent allocator
behaviour for minor archs.
Also it might be better to instead make more general improvements to page
allocator if this is still so slow.

Use strlcpy() instead.

nios2 allocates kernel PTE pages with
__get_free_pages(GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ZERO, PTE_ORDER);
and user page tables with
pte = alloc_pages(GFP_KERNEL, PTE_ORDER);
if (pte)
clear_highpage();
The PTE_ORDER is hardwired to zero, which makes nios2 implementation almost
identical to the generic one.
Switch nios2 to the generic version that does exactly the same thing for
the kernel page tables and adds __GFP_ACCOUNT for the user PTEs.
The pte_free_kernel() and pte_free() versions on nios2 are identical to the
generic ones and can be simply dropped.

Pull force_sig() argument change from Eric Biederman:
"A source of error over the years has been that force_sig has taken a
task parameter when it is only safe to use force_sig with the current
task.
The force_sig function is built for delivering synchronous signals
such as SIGSEGV where the userspace application caused a synchronous
fault (such as a page fault) and the kernel responded with a signal.
Because the name force_sig does not make this clear, and because the
force_sig takes a task parameter the function force_sig has been
abused for sending other kinds of signals over the years. Slowly those
have been fixed when the oopses have been tracked down.
This set of changes fixes the remaining abusers of force_sig and
carefully rips out the task parameter from force_sig and friends
making this kind of error almost impossible in the future"

Strangely enough, NIOS2 defines TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT twice
with different values, which is pointless and confusing.
[1] arch/nios2/Kconfig
config TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT
def_bool n
[2] arch/nios2/Kconfig.debug
config TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT
def_bool y
[1] is included before [2]. In the Kconfig syntax, the first one
is effective. So, TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT is always 'n'.
The second define in arch/nios2/Kconfig.debug is dead code.

As synchronous exceptions really only make sense against the current
task (otherwise how are you synchronous) remove the task parameter
from from force_sig_fault to make it explicit that is what is going
on.
The two known exceptions that deliver a synchronous exception to a
stopped ptraced task have already been changed to
force_sig_fault_to_task.
The callers have been changed with the following emacs regular expression
(with obvious variations on the architectures that take more arguments)
to avoid typos:
force_sig_fault[(]\([^,]+\)[,]\([^,]+\)[,]\([^,]+\)[,]\W+current[)]
->
force_sig_fault(\1,\2,\3)

All of the remaining callers pass current into force_sig so
remove the task parameter to make this obvious and to make
misuse more difficult in the future.
This also makes it clear force_sig passes current into force_sig_info.

The function force_sigsegv is always called on the current task

Most architectures do not need the memblock memory after the page
allocator is initialized, but only few enable ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK in the
arch Kconfig.
Replacing ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK with ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK and inverting the
logic makes it clear which architectures actually use memblock after
system initialization and skips the necessity to add ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK
to the architectures that are still missing that option.

Patch series "provide a generic free_initmem implementation", v2.
Many architectures implement free_initmem() in exactly the same or very
similar way: they wrap the call to free_initmem_default() with sometimes
different 'poison' parameter.
These patches switch those architectures to use a generic implementation
that does free_initmem_default(POISON_FREE_INITMEM).
This was inspired by Christoph's patches for free_initrd_mem [1] and I
shamelessly copied changelog entries from his patches :)
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190213174621.29297-1-hch@lst.de/
This patch (of 2):
For most architectures free_initmem just a wrapper for the same
free_initmem_default(-1) call. Provide that as a generic implementation
marked __weak.

To be honest, including this in the audit tree is a bit of a
stretch, but it does help move audit a little further along towards
proper syscall auditing for all arches, and everyone else seemed to
agree that audit was a "good" spot for this to land (or maybe they
just didn't want to merge it? dunno.).

seems reasonable to remove them from syscall_set_arguments(). Note, as of

there will be soon. But for now, at least make it consistent with
syscall_get_arguments().

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.

and no architecture-specific code will be needed, there is no point
in keeping two different implementations of rwsem. In most cases, the
performance of rwsem-spinlock.c will be worse. It also doesn't get all
the performance tuning and optimizations that had been implemented in
rwsem-xadd.c over the years.
For simplication, we are going to remove rwsem-spinlock.c and make all
architectures use a single implementation of rwsem - rwsem-xadd.c.
All references to RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK and RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM
in the code are removed.

For the architectures that do not implement their own tlb_flush() but
do already use the generic mmu_gather, there are two options:
1) the platform has an efficient flush_tlb_range() and
asm-generic/tlb.h doesn't need any overrides at all.
2) the platform lacks an efficient flush_tlb_range() and
we select MMU_GATHER_NO_RANGE to minimize full invalidates.
Convert all 'simple' architectures to one of these two forms.
alpha: has no range invalidate -> 2
arc: already used flush_tlb_range() -> 1
c6x: has no range invalidate -> 2
hexagon: has an efficient flush_tlb_range() -> 1
(flush_tlb_mm() is in fact a full range invalidate,
so no need to shoot down everything)
m68k: has inefficient flush_tlb_range() -> 2
microblaze: has no flush_tlb_range() -> 2
mips: has efficient flush_tlb_range() -> 1
(even though it currently seems to use flush_tlb_mm())
nds32: already uses flush_tlb_range() -> 1
nios2: has inefficient flush_tlb_range() -> 2
(no limit on range iteration)
openrisc: has inefficient flush_tlb_range() -> 2
(no limit on range iteration)
parisc: already uses flush_tlb_range() -> 1
sparc32: already uses flush_tlb_range() -> 1
unicore32: has inefficient flush_tlb_range() -> 2
(no limit on range iteration)
xtensa: has efficient flush_tlb_range() -> 1
Note this also fixes a bug in the existing code for a number
platforms. Those platforms that did:
tlb_end_vma() -> if (!full_mm) flush_tlb_*()
tlb_flush -> if (full_mm) flush_tlb_mm()
missed the case of shift_arg_pages(), which doesn't have @fullmm set,
nor calls into tlb_*vma(), but still frees page-tables and thus needs
an invalidate. The new code handles this by detecting a non-empty
range, and either issuing the matching range invalidate or a full
invalidate, depending on the capabilities.
No change in behavior intended.

The one obvious thing SH and ARM want is a sensible default for
tlb_start_vma(). (also: https://lkml.org/lkml/2004/1/15/6 )
Avoid all VIPT architectures providing their own tlb_start_vma()
implementation and rely on architectures to provide a no-op
flush_cache_range() when it is not relevant.
This patch makes tlb_start_vma() default to flush_cache_range(), which
should be right and sufficient. The only exceptions that I found where
(oddly):
- m68k-mmu
- sparc64
- unicore
Those architectures appear to have flush_cache_range(), but their
current tlb_start_vma() does not call it.
No change in behavior intended.

I do not see any consistency about headers_install of <linux/kvm_para.h>
and <asm/kvm_para.h>.
According to my analysis of Linux 5.1-rc1, there are 3 groups:
[1] Both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> are exported
alpha, arm, hexagon, mips, powerpc, s390, sparc, x86
[2] <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported, but <linux/kvm_para.h> is not
arc, arm64, c6x, h8300, ia64, m68k, microblaze, nios2, openrisc,
parisc, sh, unicore32, xtensa
[3] Neither <linux/kvm_para.h> nor <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported
csky, nds32, riscv
This does not match to the actual KVM support. At least, [2] is
half-baked.
Nor do arch maintainers look like they care about this. For example,
commit 0add53713b1c ("microblaze: Add missing kvm_para.h to Kbuild")
exported <asm/kvm_para.h> to user-space in order to fix an in-kernel
build error.
We have two ways to make this consistent:
[A] export both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> for all
architectures, irrespective of the KVM support
[B] Match the header export of <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h>
to the KVM support
My first attempt was [A] because the code looks cleaner, but Paolo
suggested [B].
So, this commit goes with [B].
For most architectures, <asm/kvm_para.h> was moved to the kernel-space.
I changed include/uapi/linux/Kbuild so that it checks generated
asm/kvm_para.h as well as check-in ones.
After this commit, there will be two groups:
[1] Both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> are exported
arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, s390, x86
[2] Neither <linux/kvm_para.h> nor <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported
alpha, arc, c6x, csky, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m68k, microblaze,
nds32, nios2, openrisc, parisc, riscv, sh, sparc, unicore32, xtensa
