git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk
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 driver core updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the set of "big" driver core patches for 4.16-rc1.
The majority of the work here is in the firmware subsystem, with
reworks to try to attempt to make the code easier to handle in the
long run, but no functional change. There's also some tree-wide sysfs
attribute fixups with lots of acks from the various subsystem
maintainers, as well as a handful of other normal fixes and changes.
And finally, some license cleanups for the driver core and sysfs code.

When copying between the vcpu and svcpu, we may get scheduled away onto
a different host CPU which in turn means our svcpu pointer may change.
That means we need to atomically copy to and from the svcpu with preemption
disabled, so that all code around it always sees a coherent state.

Running with CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP reveals that HV KVM tries to
read guest memory, in order to emulate guest instructions, while
preempt is disabled and a vcore lock is held. This occurs in
kvmppc_handle_exit_hv(), called from post_guest_process(), when
emulating guest doorbell instructions on POWER9 systems, and also
when checking whether we have hit a hypervisor breakpoint.
Reading guest memory can cause a page fault and thus cause the
task to sleep, so we need to avoid reading guest memory while
holding a spinlock or when preempt is disabled.
To fix this, we move the preempt_enable() in kvmppc_run_core() to
before the loop that calls post_guest_process() for each vcore that
has just run, and we drop and re-take the vcore lock around the calls
to kvmppc_emulate_debug_inst() and kvmppc_emulate_doorbell_instr().
Dropping the lock is safe with respect to the iteration over the
runnable vcpus in post_guest_process(); for_each_runnable_thread
is actually safe to use locklessly. It is possible for a vcpu
to become runnable and add itself to the runnable_threads array
(code near the beginning of kvmppc_run_vcpu()) and then get included
in the iteration in post_guest_process despite the fact that it
has not just run. This is benign because vcpu->arch.trap and
vcpu->arch.ceded will be zero.

Instead of marking the pmd ready for split, invalidate the pmd. This
should take care of powerpc requirement. Only side effect is that we
mark the pmd invalid early. This can result in us blocking access to
the page a bit longer if we race against a thp split.

There is no need to have ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT, as all
the page initialization code is in common code.
Also, there is no need to depend on MEMORY_HOTPLUG, as initialization
code does not really use hotplug memory functionality. So, we can
remove this requirement as well.
This patch allows to use deferred struct page initialization on all
platforms with memblock allocator.
Tested on x86, arm64, and sparc. Also, verified that code compiles on
PPC with CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG disabled.

Pull poll annotations from Al Viro:
"This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates
the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as
'make ->poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local
variables used to hold the future return value'.
Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN
misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is
low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. ->poll() instance
deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those
in this series - it's large enough as it is.
Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and
eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were
equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are
arch-independent, but POLL### are not.
The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from
the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them
in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this
is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll()
work on all architectures.
As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and
it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other
architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered
at all on sparc. With this patch they should work consistently on all
architectures"

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"

The recent TLB flush rework broke the build when the Radix MMU is
disabled at build time, eg:
(.text+0x264): undefined reference to `.radix__tlbiel_all'
We could add an empty version, but if we ever called it by accident
that would indicate a bad bug, so add a stub that just WARNs if we do.

pull-request: bpf-next 2018-01-26
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) A number of extensions to tcp-bpf, from Lawrence.
- direct R or R/W access to many tcp_sock fields via bpf_sock_ops
- passing up to 3 arguments to bpf_sock_ops functions
- tcp_sock field bpf_sock_ops_cb_flags for controlling callbacks
- optionally calling bpf_sock_ops program when RTO fires
- optionally calling bpf_sock_ops program when packet is retransmitted
- optionally calling bpf_sock_ops program when TCP state changes
- access to tclass and sk_txhash
- new selftest
2) div/mod exception handling, from Daniel.
One of the ugly leftovers from the early eBPF days is that div/mod
operations based on registers have a hard-coded src_reg == 0 test
in the interpreter as well as in JIT code generators that would
return from the BPF program with exit code 0. This was basically
adopted from cBPF interpreter for historical reasons.
There are multiple reasons why this is very suboptimal and prone
to bugs. To name one: the return code mapping for such abnormal
program exit of 0 does not always match with a suitable program
type's exit code mapping. For example, '0' in tc means action 'ok'
where the packet gets passed further up the stack, which is just
undesirable for such cases (e.g. when implementing policy) and
also does not match with other program types.
After considering _four_ different ways to address the problem,
we adapt the same behavior as on some major archs like ARMv8:
X div 0 results in 0, and X mod 0 results in X. aarch64 and
aarch32 ISA do not generate any traps or otherwise aborts
of program execution for unsigned divides.
Given the options, it seems the most suitable from
all of them, also since major archs have similar schemes in
place. Given this is all in the realm of undefined behavior,
we still have the option to adapt if deemed necessary.
3) sockmap sample refactoring, from John.
4) lpm map get_next_key fixes, from Yonghong.
5) test cleanups, from Alexei and Prashant.

The QS21/22 IBM Cell blades had a southbridge chip called Axon. This
could have DDR DIMMs attached to it, though they were not directly
usable as RAM, instead they could be used as some sort of buffer, if
applications were written specifically to use the block device
provided by the driver.
Although the driver supposedly had direct access support, it was
apparently never tested (see commit 91117a20245b ("axonram: Fix bug in
direct_access")).
These machines have not been available for over 5 years, and were
never widely in use. It seems highly unlikely anyone is using this
driver.
In general we're happy to leave old drivers in the tree, but because
DAX is involved this driver is caught up in the ongoing work in that
area, but none of the DAX folks are able to test it.
So remove the driver, if any one *is* using it, we'll be happy to put
it back.

The mpc52xx_gpt code currently implements an irq_chip for handling
interrupts; due to how irq_chip handling is done, it's necessary for
the irq_chip methods to be invoked from hardirq context, even on a a
real-time kernel. Because the spinlock_t type becomes a "sleeping"
spinlock w/ RT kernels, it is not suitable to be used with irq_chips.
A quick audit of the operations under the lock reveal that they do
only minimal, bounded work, and are therefore safe to do under a raw
spinlock.

On powerpc systems with shared configurations of CPUs and memory and
memoryless nodes at boot, an event ordering problem was observed on a
SLES12 build platforms with the hot-add of CPUs to the memoryless
nodes.
* The most common error occurred when the memory SLAB driver attempted
to reference the memoryless node to which a CPU was being added
before the kernel had finished initializing all of the data
structures for the CPU and exited 'device_online' under
DLPAR/hot-add.
Normally the memoryless node would be initialized through the call
path device_online ... arch_update_cpu_topology ... find_cpu_nid ...
try_online_node. This patch ensures that the powerpc node will be
initialized as early as possible, even if it was memoryless and
CPU-less at the point when we are trying to hot-add a new CPU to it.

This patch fixes some problems encountered at runtime with
configurations that support memory-less nodes, or that hot-add CPUs
into nodes that are memoryless during system execution after boot. The
problems of interest include:
* Nodes known to powerpc to be memoryless at boot, but to have CPUs in
them are allowed to be 'possible' and 'online'. Memory allocations
for those nodes are taken from another node that does have memory
until and if memory is hot-added to the node.
* Nodes which have no resources assigned at boot, but which may still
be referenced subsequently by affinity or associativity attributes,
are kept in the list of 'possible' nodes for powerpc. Hot-add of
memory or CPUs to the system can reference these nodes and bring
them online instead of redirecting the references to one of the set
of nodes known to have memory at boot.
Note that this software operates under the context of CPU hotplug. We
are not doing memory hotplug in this code, but rather updating the
kernel's CPU topology (i.e. arch_update_cpu_topology /
numa_update_cpu_topology). We are initializing a node that may be used
by CPUs or memory before it can be referenced as invalid by a CPU
hotplug operation. CPU hotplug operations are protected by a range of
APIs including cpu_maps_update_begin/cpu_maps_update_done,
cpus_read/write_lock / cpus_read/write_unlock, device locks, and more.
Memory hotplug operations, including try_online_node, are protected by
mem_hotplug_begin/mem_hotplug_done, device locks, and more. In the
case of CPUs being hot-added to a previously memoryless node, the
try_online_node operation occurs wholly within the CPU locks with no
overlap. Using HMC hot-add/hot-remove operations, we have been able to
add and remove CPUs to any possible node without failures. HMC
operations involve a degree self-serialization, though.

On powerpc systems which allow 'hot-add' of CPU or memory resources,
it may occur that the new resources are to be inserted into nodes that
were not used for these resources at bootup. In the kernel, any node
that is used must be defined and initialized. These empty nodes may
occur when,
* Dedicated vs. shared resources. Shared resources require information
such as the VPHN hcall for CPU assignment to nodes. Associativity
decisions made based on dedicated resource rules, such as
associativity properties in the device tree, may vary from decisions
made using the values returned by the VPHN hcall.
* memoryless nodes at boot. Nodes need to be defined as 'possible' at
boot for operation with other code modules. Previously, the powerpc
code would limit the set of possible nodes to those which have
memory assigned at boot, and were thus online. Subsequent add/remove
of CPUs or memory would only work with this subset of possible
nodes.
* memoryless nodes with CPUs at boot. Due to the previous restriction
on nodes, nodes that had CPUs but no memory were being collapsed
into other nodes that did have memory at boot. In practice this
meant that the node assignment presented by the runtime kernel
differed from the affinity and associativity attributes presented by
the device tree or VPHN hcalls. Nodes that might be known to the
pHyp were not 'possible' in the runtime kernel because they did not
have memory at boot.
This patch ensures that sufficient nodes are defined to support
configuration requirements after boot, as well as at boot. This patch
set fixes a couple of problems.
* Nodes known to powerpc to be memoryless at boot, but to have CPUs in
them are allowed to be 'possible' and 'online'. Memory allocations
for those nodes are taken from another node that does have memory
until and if memory is hot-added to the node. * Nodes which have no
resources assigned at boot, but which may still be referenced
subsequently by affinity or associativity attributes, are kept in
the list of 'possible' nodes for powerpc. Hot-add of memory or CPUs
to the system can reference these nodes and bring them online
instead of redirecting to one of the set of nodes that were known to
have memory at boot.
This patch extracts the value of the lowest domain level (number of
allocable resources) from the device tree property
"ibm,max-associativity-domains" to use as the maximum number of nodes
to setup as possibly available in the system. This new setting will
override the instruction:
nodes_and(node_possible_map, node_possible_map, node_online_map);
presently seen in the function arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c:initmem_init().
If the "ibm,max-associativity-domains" property is not present at
boot, no operation will be performed to define or enable additional
nodes, or enable the above 'nodes_and()'.

Add user APIs through ioctl to allocate, free, and be notified of an
AFU interrupt.
For opencapi, an AFU can trigger an interrupt on the host by sending a
specific command targeting a 64-bit object handle. On POWER9, this is
implemented by mapping a special page in the address space of a
process and a write to that page will trigger an interrupt.

In the opencapi protocol, host memory contexts are referenced by a
'actag'. During setup, a driver must tell the device how many actags
it can used, and what values are acceptable.
On POWER9, the NPU can handle 64 actags per link, so they must be
shared between all the PCI functions of the link. To get a global
picture of how many actags are used by each AFU of every function, we
capture some data at the end of PCI enumeration, so that actags can be
shared fairly if needed.
This is not powernv specific per say, but rather a consequence of the
opencapi configuration specification being quite general. The number
of available actags on POWER9 makes it more likely to be hit. This is
somewhat mitigated by the fact that existing AFUs are coded by
requesting a reasonable count of actags and existing devices carry
only one AFU.

OPAL_NPU_SPA_CLEAR_CACHE: clear the context cache
The NPU keeps a cache of recently accessed memory contexts. When a
Process Element is removed from the SPA, the cache for the link must
be cleared.
OPAL_NPU_TL_SET: configure the Transaction Layer

messages to be exchanged on the link. During link setup, the host and
