According to the spec 'ELF for the ARM Architecture' (IHI 0044E),
addends for R_ARM_PREL31 relocations are 31-bit signed quantities,
so we need to sign extend the value to 32 bits before it can be used
as an offset in the calculation of the relocated value.
We have not been bitten by this because these relocations are usually
emitted against the start of a section, which means the addends never
assume negative values in practice. But it is a bug nonetheless, so fix
it.

VECTORS_BASE displays the exception base address. Now on no-MMU as
the exception base address is dynamically estimated, define
VECTORS_BASE to the variable holding it.
As it is the case, limit VECTORS_BASE constant definition to MMU.

No-MMU dynamic exception base address configuration on CP15
processors. In the case of low vectors, decision based on whether
security extensions are enabled & whether remap vectors to RAM
CONFIG option is selected.
For no-MMU without CP15, current default value of 0x0 is retained.

For MMU configurations, VECTORS_BASE is always 0xffff0000, a macro
definition will suffice.
For no-MMU, exception base address is dynamically determined in
subsequent patches. To preserve bisectability, now make the
macro applicable for no-MMU scenario too.
Thanks to 0-DAY kernel test infrastructure that found the
bisectability issue. This macro will be restricted to MMU case upon
dynamically determining exception base address for no-MMU.
Once exception address is handled dynamically for no-MMU,
VECTORS_BASE can be removed from Kconfig.

x86 has an option: CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL to do additional checks on
virt_to_phys calls. The goal is to catch users who are calling
virt_to_phys on non-linear addresses immediately. This includes caller
using __virt_to_phys() on image addresses instead of __pa_symbol(). This
is a generally useful debug feature to spot bad code (particulary in
drivers).

adjust_lowmem_bounds is responsible for setting up the boundary for
lowmem/highmem. This needs to be setup before memblock reservations can
occur. At the time memblock reservations can occur, memory can also be
removed from the system. The lowmem/highmem boundary and end of memory
may be affected by this but it is currently not recalculated. On some
systems this may be harmless, on others this may result in incorrect
ranges being passed to the main memory allocator. Correct this by
recalculating the lowmem/highmem boundary after all reservations have
been made.

In commit 62906027091f ("mm: add PageWaiters indicating tasks are
waiting for a page bit") Nick Piggin made our page locking no longer
unconditionally touch the hashed page waitqueue, which not only helps
performance in general, but is particularly helpful on NUMA machines
where the hashed wait queues can bounce around a lot.
However, the "clear lock bit atomically and then test the waiters bit"
sequence turns out to be much more expensive than it needs to be,
because you get a nasty stall when trying to access the same word that
just got updated atomically.
On architectures where locking is done with LL/SC, this would be trivial
to fix with a new primitive that clears one bit and tests another
atomically, but that ends up not working on x86, where the only atomic
operations that return the result end up being cmpxchg and xadd. The
atomic bit operations return the old value of the same bit we changed,
not the value of an unrelated bit.
On x86, we could put the lock bit in the high bit of the byte, and use
"xadd" with that bit (where the overflow ends up not touching other
bits), and look at the other bits of the result. However, an even
simpler model is to just use a regular atomic "and" to clear the lock
bit, and then the sign bit in eflags will indicate the resulting state
of the unrelated bit #7.
So by moving the PageWaiters bit up to bit #7, we can atomically clear
the lock bit and test the waiters bit on x86 too. And architectures
with LL/SC (which is all the usual RISC suspects), the particular bit
doesn't matter, so they are fine with this approach too.
This avoids the extra access to the same atomic word, and thus avoids
the costly stall at page unlock time.
The only downside is that the interface ends up being a bit odd and
specialized: clear a bit in a byte, and test the sign bit. Nick doesn't
love the resulting name of the new primitive, but I'd rather make the
name be descriptive and very clear about the limitation imposed by
trying to work across all relevant architectures than make it be some
generic thing that doesn't make the odd semantics explicit.
So this introduces the new architecture primitive
clear_bit_unlock_is_negative_byte();
and adds the trivial implementation for x86. We have a generic
non-optimized fallback (that just does a "clear_bit()"+"test_bit(7)"
combination) which can be overridden by any architecture that can do
better. According to Nick, Power has the same hickup x86 has, for
example, but some other architectures may not even care.
All these optimizations mean that my page locking stress-test (which is
just executing a lot of small short-lived shell scripts: "make test" in
the git source tree) no longer makes our page locking look horribly bad.
Before all these optimizations, just the unlock_page() costs were just
over 3% of all CPU overhead on "make test". After this, it's down to
0.66%, so just a quarter of the cost it used to be.
(The difference on NUMA is bigger, but there this micro-optimization is
likely less noticeable, since the big issue on NUMA was not the accesses
to 'struct page', but the waitqueue accesses that were already removed
by Nick's earlier commit).

I am getting the following warning when I build kernel 4.9-git on my
PowerBook G4 with a 32-bit PPC processor:
AS arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.o
arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.S:299:7: warning: "CONFIG_FSL_BOOKE" is not defined [-Wundef]
This problem is evident after commit 989cea5c14be ("kbuild: prevent
lib-ksyms.o rebuilds"); however, this change in kbuild only exposes an
error that has been in the code since 2005 when this source file was
created. That was with commit 9994a33865f4 ("powerpc: Introduce
entry_{32,64}.S, misc_{32,64}.S, systbl.S").
The offending line does not make a lot of sense. This error does not
seem to cause any errors in the executable, thus I am not recommending
that it be applied to any stable versions.
Thanks to Nicholas Piggin for suggesting this solution.

ktime_set(S,N) was required for the timespec storage type and is still
useful for situations where a Seconds and Nanoseconds part of a time value

The cpu hotplug support of this perf driver is broken in several ways:
1) It adds a instance before setting up the state.
2) The state for the instance is different from the state of the
callback. It's just a randomly chosen state.
3) The instance registration is not error checked so nobody noticed that
the call can never succeed.
4) The state for the multi install callbacks is chosen randomly and
overwrites existing state. This is now prevented by the core code so the
call is guaranteed to fail.
5) The error exit path in the init function leaves the instance registered
and then frees the memory which contains the enqueued hlist node.
6) The remove function is removing the state and not the instance.
Fix it by:
- Setting up the state before adding instances. Use a dynamically allocated
state for it.
- Installing instances after the state has been set up
- Removing the instance in the error path before freeing memory
- Removing the instance not the state in the driver remove callback
While at is use raw_cpu_processor_id(), because cpu_processor_id() cannot
be used in preemptible context, and set the driver data after successful
registration of the pmu.

Revert the following commit:
b6959a362177 ("x86/unwind: Detect bad stack return address")
... because Andrey Konovalov reported an unwinder warning:
WARNING: unrecognized kernel stack return address ffffffffa0000001 at ffff88006377fa18 in a.out:4467
The unwind was initiated from an interrupt which occurred while running in the
generated code for a kprobe. The unwinder printed the warning because it
expected regs->ip to point to a valid text address, but instead it pointed to
the generated code.
Eventually we may want come up with a way to identify generated kprobe
code so the unwinder can know that it's a valid return address. Until
then, just remove the warning.

Pull x86 cache allocation interface from Thomas Gleixner:
"This provides support for Intel's Cache Allocation Technology, a cache
partitioning mechanism.
The interface is odd, but the hardware interface of that CAT stuff is
odd as well.
We tried hard to come up with an abstraction, but that only allows
rather simple partitioning, but no way of sharing and dealing with the
per package nature of this mechanism.
In the end we decided to expose the allocation bitmaps directly so all
combinations of the hardware can be utilized.
There are two ways of associating a cache partition:
- Task
A task can be added to a resource group. It uses the cache
partition associated to the group.
- CPU
All tasks which are not member of a resource group use the group to
which the CPU they are running on is associated with.
That allows for simple CPU based partitioning schemes.
The main expected user sare:
- Virtualization so a VM can only trash only the associated part of
the cash w/o disturbing others
- Real-Time systems to seperate RT and general workloads.
- Latency sensitive enterprise workloads
- In theory this also can be used to protect against cache side
channel attacks"
[ Intel RDT is "Resource Director Technology". The interface really is
rather odd and very specific, which delayed this pull request while I
was thinking about it. The pull request itself came in early during
the merge window, I just delayed it until things had calmed down and I
had more time.
But people tell me they'll use this, and the good news is that it is
_so_ specific that it's rather independent of anything else, and no
user is going to depend on the interface since it's pretty rare. So if
push comes to shove, we can just remove the interface and nothing will
break ]

Jiri reported the overlap scheduling exceeding its max stack.
Looking at the constraint that triggered this, it turns out the
overlap marker isn't needed.
The comment with EVENT_CONSTRAINT_OVERLAP states: "This is the case if
the counter mask of such an event is not a subset of any other counter
mask of a constraint with an equal or higher weight".
Esp. that latter part is of interest here I think, our overlapping mask
is 0x0e, that has 3 bits set and is the highest weight mask in on the
PMU, therefore it will be placed last. Can we still create a scenario
where we would need to rewind that?
The scenario for AMD Fam15h is we're having masks like:
0x3F -- 111111
0x38 -- 111000
0x07 -- 000111
0x09 -- 001001
And we mark 0x09 as overlapping, because it is not a direct subset of
0x38 or 0x07 and has less weight than either of those. This means we'll
first try and place the 0x09 event, then try and place 0x38/0x07 events.
Now imagine we have:
3 * 0x07 + 0x09
and the initial pick for the 0x09 event is counter 0, then we'll fail to
place all 0x07 events. So we'll pop back, try counter 4 for the 0x09
event, and then re-try all 0x07 events, which will now work.
The masks on the PMU in question are:
0x01 - 0001
0x03 - 0011
0x0e - 1110
0x0c - 1100
But since all the masks that have overlap (0xe -> {0xc,0x3}) and (0x3 ->
0x1) are of heavier weight, it should all work out.

This patch solves a race condition between PEBS and the PMU handler.
In case multiple PEBS events are sampled at the same time,
it is possible to have GLOBAL_STATUS bit 62 set indicating
PEBS buffer overflow and also seeing at most 3 PEBS counters
having their bits set in the status register. This is a sign
that there was at least one PEBS record pending at the time
of the PMU interrupt. PEBS counters must only be processed
via the drain_pebs() calls, and not via the regular sample
processing loop coming after that the function, otherwise
phony regular samples may be generated in the sampling buffer
not marked with the EXACT tag.
Another possibility is to have one PEBS event and at least
one non-PEBS event whic hoverflows while PEBS has armed. In this
case, bit 62 of GLOBAL_STATUS will not be set, yet the overflow
status bit for the PEBS counter will be on Skylake.
To avoid this problem, we systematically ignore the PEBS-enabled
counters from the GLOBAL_STATUS mask and we always process PEBS
events via drain_pebs().
The problem manifested itself by having non-exact samples when
sampling only PEBS events, i.e., the PERF_SAMPLE_RECORD would
not have the EXACT flag set.
Note that this problem is only present on Skylake processor.
This fix is harmless on older processors.

When we switch to virtual addresses and, especially after
reserve_initrd()->relocate_initrd() have run, we have the updated initrd
address in initrd_start. Use initrd_start then instead of the address
which has been passed to us through boot params. (That still gets used
when we're running the very early routines on the BSP).

acpi_get_table_with_size()/early_acpi_os_unmap_memory()
Since all users are cleaned up, remove the 2 deprecated APIs due to no
users.
As a Linux variable rather than an ACPICA variable, acpi_gbl_permanent_mmap
is renamed to acpi_permanent_mmap to have a consistent coding style across
entire Linux ACPI subsystem.

This patch removes the users of the deprectated APIs:
acpi_get_table_with_size()
early_acpi_os_unmap_memory()
The following APIs should be used instead of:
acpi_get_table()
acpi_put_table()
The deprecated APIs are invented to be a replacement of acpi_get_table()
during the early stage so that the early mapped pointer will not be stored
in ACPICA core and thus the late stage acpi_get_table() won't return a
wrong pointer. The mapping size is returned just because it is required by
early_acpi_os_unmap_memory() to unmap the pointer during early stage.
But as the mapping size equals to the acpi_table_header.length
(see acpi_tb_init_table_descriptor() and acpi_tb_validate_table()), when
such a convenient result is returned, driver code will start to use it
instead of accessing acpi_table_header to obtain the length.
Thus this patch cleans up the drivers by replacing returned table size with
acpi_table_header.length, and should be a no-op.

Restructure the timer interrupt function to better cope with missed timer irqs.
Optimize the calculation when the next interrupt should happen and skip irqs if
they would happen too shortly after exit of the irq function.
The update_process_times() call is done anyway at every timer irq, so we can
safely drop the prof_counter and prof_multiplier variables from the per_cpu
structure.
