In order to make adding configurable features into seccomp easier,
it's better to have the options at one single location, considering
especially that the bulk of seccomp code is arch-independent. An quick
look also show that many SECCOMP descriptions are outdated; they talk
about /proc rather than prctl.As a result of moving the config option and keeping it default on,
architectures arm, arm64, csky, riscv, sh, and xtensa did not have SECCOMP
on by default prior to this and SECCOMP will be default in this change.Architectures microblaze, mips, powerpc, s390, sh, and sparc have an
outdated depend on PROC_FS and this dependency is removed in this change.Suggested-by: Jann Horn

parisc is the only architecture that sets ARCH_NO_COHERENT_DMA_MMAP
when an MMU is enabled. AFAIK this is because parisc CPUs use VIVT
caches, which means exporting normally cachable memory to userspace is
relatively dangrous due to cache aliasing.But normally cachable memory is only allocated by dma_alloc_coherent
on parisc when using the sba_iommu or ccio_iommu drivers, so just
remove the .mmap implementation for them so that we don't have to set
ARCH_NO_COHERENT_DMA_MMAP, which I plan to get rid of.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

This patch implements dynamic ftrace for PA-RISC. The required mcount
call sequences can get pretty long, so instead of patching the
whole call sequence out of the functions, we are using
-fpatchable-function-entry from gcc. This puts a configurable amount of
NOPS before/at the start of the function. Taking do_sys_open() as example,
which would look like this when the call is patched out:1036b248: 08 00 02 40 nop
1036b24c: 08 00 02 40 nop
1036b250: 08 00 02 40 nop
1036b254: 08 00 02 40 nop1036b258 :
1036b258: 08 00 02 40 nop
1036b25c: 08 03 02 41 copy r3,r1
1036b260: 6b c2 3f d9 stw rp,-14(sp)
1036b264: 08 1e 02 43 copy sp,r3
1036b268: 6f c1 01 00 stw,ma r1,80(sp)When ftrace gets enabled for this function the kernel will patch these
NOPs to:1036b248: 10 19 57 20
1036b24c: 6f c1 00 80 stw,ma r1,40(sp)
1036b250: 48 21 3f d1 ldw -18(r1),r1
1036b254: e8 20 c0 02 bv,n r0(r1)1036b258 :
1036b258: e8 3f 1f df b,l,n .-c,r1
1036b25c: 08 03 02 41 copy r3,r1
1036b260: 6b c2 3f d9 stw rp,-14(sp)
1036b264: 08 1e 02 43 copy sp,r3
1036b268: 6f c1 01 00 stw,ma r1,80(sp)So the first NOP in do_sys_open() will be patched to jump backwards into
some minimal trampoline code which pushes a stackframe, saves r1 which
holds the return address, loads the address of the real ftrace function,
and branches to that location. For 64 Bit things are getting a bit more
complicated (and longer) because we must make sure that the address of
ftrace location is 8 byte aligned, and the offset passed to ldd for
fetching the address is 8 byte aligned as well.Note that gcc has a bug which misplaces the function label, and needs a
patch to make dynamic ftrace work. See
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=90751 for details.Signed-off-by: Sven Schnelle

A 64-bit kernel built without CONFIG_MLONGCALLS (-mlong-calls compiler
option) usually fails to link because of unreachable functions. Try to
work around that linking issue by moving the *.init and *.exit text
segments closer to the main text segment. With that change those
segments now don't get freed at runtime any longer, but since we in most
cases run with huge-page enabled, we ignore the lost memory in
preference of better performance.This change will not guarantee that every kernel config will now
sucessfully build with short calls and without linking issues.Signed-off-by: Helge Deller

Since commit 350e88bad496 ("mm: memblock: make keeping memblock memory

The commit 1c30844d2dfe ("mm: reclaim small amounts of memory when an

parisc c8000 workstation with this memory layout:0) Start 0x0000000000000000 End 0x000000003fffffff Size 1024 MB

2) Start 0x0000004040000000 End 0x00000040ffffffff Size 3072 MBWith the patch 1c30844d2dfe, the kernel will incorrectly reclaim the
first zone when it fills up, ignoring the fact that there are two
completely free zones. Basiscally, it limits cache size to 1GiB.The parisc kernel is currently using the DISCONTIGMEM implementation,
but isn't NUMA. Avoid this issue or strange work-arounds by switching to
the more commonly used SPARSEMEM implementation.Reported-by: Mikulas Patocka

Currently, we have two different implementation of rwsem:
1) CONFIG_RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK (rwsem-spinlock.c)
2) CONFIG_RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM (rwsem-xadd.c)As we are going to use a single generic implementation for rwsem-xadd.c
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.Suggested-by: Peter Zijlstra

All new 32-bit architectures should have 64-bit userspace off_t type, but
existing architectures has 32-bit ones.To enforce the rule, new config option is added to arch/Kconfig that defaults
ARCH_32BIT_OFF_T to be disabled for new 32-bit architectures. All existing
32-bit architectures enable it explicitly.New option affects force_o_largefile() behaviour. Namely, if userspace
off_t is 64-bits long, we have no reason to reject user to open big files.Note that even if architectures has only 64-bit off_t in the kernel
(arc, c6x, h8300, hexagon, nios2, openrisc, and unicore32),
a libc may use 32-bit off_t, and therefore want to limit the file size
to 4GB unless specified differently in the open flags.Signed-off-by: Yury Norov

Pull Kconfig file consolidation from Masahiro Yamada:
"Consolidation of bus (PCI, PCMCIA, EISA, RapidIO) config entries by
Christoph Hellwig.Currently, every architecture that wants to provide common peripheral
busses needs to add some boilerplate code and include the right
Kconfig files. This series instead just selects the presence (when
needed) and then handles everything in the bus-specific Kconfig file
under drivers/"* tag 'kconfig-v4.21-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild:
pcmcia: remove per-arch PCMCIA config entry
eisa: consolidate EISA Kconfig entry in drivers/eisa
rapidio: consolidate RAPIDIO config entry in drivers/rapidio
pcmcia: allow PCMCIA support independent of the architecture
PCI: consolidate the PCI_SYSCALL symbol
PCI: consolidate the PCI_DOMAINS and PCI_DOMAINS_GENERIC config options
PCI: consolidate PCI config entry in drivers/pci
MIPS: remove the HT_PCI config option
