commit 4d2dc2cc766c3b51929658cacbc6e34fc8e242fb upstream.
Currently, we're capping the values too low in the F_GETLK64 case. The
fields in that structure are 64-bit values, so we shouldn't need to do
any sort of fixup there.Make sure we check that assumption at build time in the future however
by ensuring that the sizes we're copying will fit.With this, we no longer need COMPAT_LOFF_T_MAX either, so remove it.
Fixes: 94073ad77fff2 (fs/locks: don't mess with the address limit in compat_fcntl64)

Pull arch/tile fixes from Chris Metcalf:
"Two one-line bug fixes"* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile:
arch/tile: Implement ->set_state_oneshot_stopped()
tile: pass machine size to sparse -
set_state_oneshot_stopped() is called by the clkevt core, when the
next event is required at an expiry time of 'KTIME_MAX'. This normally
happens with NO_HZ_{IDLE|FULL} in both LOWRES/HIGHRES modes.This patch makes the clockevent device to stop on such an event, to
avoid spurious interrupts, as explained by: commit 8fff52fd5093

Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either
incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the
license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for
compliance tools to determine the correct license.Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was
chosen based on the license information in the file.GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license
identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is
the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall
exception:NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL
code, without confusing license compliance tools.Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed
under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX
identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format
is:
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE)SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be
used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove
existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case
basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will
happen in a separate step.This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart

Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of

- 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

By default, sparse assumes a 64bit machine when compiled on x86-64
and 32bit when compiled on anything else.This can of course create all sort of problems, like issuing false
warnings like: 'constant ... is so big it is unsigned long long'
or 'shift too big (32) for type unsigned long' when the architecture
is 64bit while sparse was compiled on a 32bit machine, or worse,
to not emit legitimate warnings in the reverse situation.Fix this by passing to sparse the appropriate -m32/-m64 flag.

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"Life has been busy and I have not gotten half as much done this round
as I would have liked. I delayed it so that a minor conflict
resolution with the mips tree could spend a little time in linux-next
before I sent this pull request.This includes two long delayed user namespace changes from Kirill
Tkhai. It also includes a very useful change from Serge Hallyn that
allows the security capability attribute to be used inside of user
namespaces. The practical effect of this is people can now untar
tarballs and install rpms in user namespaces. It had been suggested to
generalize this and encode some of the namespace information
information in the xattr name. Upon close inspection that makes the
things that should be hard easy and the things that should be easy
more expensive.Then there is my bugfix/cleanup for signal injection that removes the
magic encoding of the siginfo union member from the kernel internal
si_code. The mips folks reported the case where I had used FPE_FIXME
me is impossible so I have remove FPE_FIXME from mips, while at the
same time including a return statement in that case to keep gcc from
complaining about unitialized variables.I almost finished the work to get make copy_siginfo_to_user a trivial
copy to user. The code is available at:git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace.git neuter-copy_siginfo_to_user-v3
But I did not have time/energy to get the code posted and reviewed
before the merge window opened.I was able to see that the security excuse for just copying fields
that we know are initialized doesn't work in practice there are buggy
initializations that don't initialize the proper fields in siginfo. So
we still sometimes copy unitialized data to userspace"* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace:

First, number of CPUs can't be negative number.
Second, different signnnedness leads to suboptimal code in the following
cases:1)
kmalloc(nr_cpu_ids * sizeof(X));"int" has to be sign extended to size_t.
2)
while (loff_t *pos < nr_cpu_ids)MOVSXD is 1 byte longed than the same MOV.
Other cases exist as well. Basically compiler is told that nr_cpu_ids
can't be negative which can't be deduced if it is "int".Code savings on allyesconfig kernel: -3KB

There is code duplicated over all architecture's headers for
futex_atomic_op_inuser. Namely op decoding, access_ok check for uaddr,
and comparison of the result.Remove this duplication and leave up to the arches only the needed
assembly which is now in arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser.This effectively distributes the Will Deacon's arm64 fix for undefined
behaviour reported by UBSAN to all architectures. The fix was done in
commit 5f16a046f8e1 (arm64: futex: Fix undefined behaviour with
FUTEX_OP_OPARG_SHIFT usage). Look there for an example dump.And as suggested by Thomas, check for negative oparg too, because it was
also reported to cause undefined behaviour report.Note that s390 removed access_ok check in d12a29703 ("s390/uaccess:
remove pointless access_ok() checks") as access_ok there returns true.
We introduce it back to the helper for the sake of simplicity (it gets

Those architectures that have a special atomic_set implementation also
need a special atomic_set_release(), because for the very same reason
WRITE_ONCE() is broken for them, smp_store_release() is too.The vast majority is architectures that have spinlock hash based atomic
implementation except hexagon which seems to have a hardware 'feature'.The spinlock based atomics should be SC, that is, none of them appear to
place extra barriers in atomic_cmpxchg() or any of the other SC atomic
primitives and therefore seem to rely on their spinlock implementation
being SC (I did not fully validate all that).Therefore, the normal atomic_set() is SC and can be used at
atomic_set_release().Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel)

The pci_fixup_irqs() function allocates IRQs for all PCI devices present in
a system; those PCI devices possibly belong to different PCI bus trees (and
possibly rooted at different host bridges) and may well be enabled (ie
probed and bound to a driver) by the time pci_fixup_irqs() is called when
probing a given host bridge driver.Furthermore, current kernel code relying on pci_fixup_irqs() to assign
legacy PCI IRQs to devices does not work at all for hotplugged devices in
that the code carrying out the IRQ fixup is called at host bridge driver
probe time, which just cannot take into account devices hotplugged after
the system has booted.The introduction of map/swizzle function hooks in struct pci_host_bridge
allows us to define per-bridge map/swizzle functions that can be used at
device probe time in PCI core code to allocate IRQs for a given device
(through pci_assign_irq()).Convert PCI host bridge initialization code to the
pci_scan_root_bus_bridge() API (that allows to pass a struct
pci_host_bridge with initializedmap/swizzle pointers) and remove the
pci_fixup_irqs() call from arch code.Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Pieralisi

struct siginfo is a union and the kernel since 2.4 has been hiding a union
tag in the high 16bits of si_code using the values:
__SI_KILL
__SI_TIMER
__SI_POLL
__SI_FAULT
__SI_CHLD
__SI_RT
__SI_MESGQ
__SI_SYSWhile this looks plausible on the surface, in practice this situation has
not worked well.- Injected positive signals are not copied to user space properly
unless they have these magic high bits set.- Injected positive signals are not reported properly by signalfd
unless they have these magic high bits set.- These kernel internal values leaked to userspace via ptrace_peek_siginfo
- It was possible to inject these kernel internal values and cause the
the kernel to misbehave.- Kernel developers got confused and expected these kernel internal values
in userspace in kernel self tests.- Kernel developers got confused and set si_code to __SI_FAULT which
is SI_USER in userspace which causes userspace to think an ordinary user
sent the signal and that it was not kernel generated.- The values make it impossible to reorganize the code to transform
siginfo_copy_to_user into a plain copy_to_user. As si_code must
be massaged before being passed to userspace.So remove these kernel internal si codes and make the kernel code simpler
and more maintainable.To replace these kernel internal magic si_codes introduce the helper
function siginfo_layout, that takes a signal number and an si_code and
computes which union member of siginfo is being used. Have
siginfo_layout return an enumeration so that gcc will have enough
information to warn if a switch statement does not handle all of union
members.A couple of architectures have a messed up ABI that defines signal
specific duplications of SI_USER which causes more special cases in
siginfo_layout than I would like. The good news is only problem
architectures pay the cost.Update all of the code that used the previous magic __SI_ values to
use the new SIL_ values and to call siginfo_layout to get those
values. Escept where not all of the cases are handled remove the
defaults in the switch statements so that if a new case is missed in
the future the lack will show up at compile time.Modify the code that copies siginfo si_code to userspace to just copy
the value and not cast si_code to a short first. The high bits are no
longer used to hold a magic union member.Fixup the siginfo header files to stop including the __SI_ values in
their constants and for the headers that were missing it to properly
update the number of si_codes for each signal type.The fixes to copy_siginfo_from_user32 implementations has the
interesting property that several of them perviously should never have
worked as the __SI_ values they depended up where kernel internal.
With that dependency gone those implementations should work much
better.The idea of not passing the __SI_ values out to userspace and then
not reinserting them has been tested with criu and criu worked without
changes.Ref: 2.4.0-test1

Since commit fcc8487d477a ("uapi: export all headers under uapi
directories"), all (and only) headers under uapi directories are
exported, but asm-generic wrappers are still exceptions.To complete de-coupling the uapi from kernel headers, move generic-y
of exported headers to uapi/asm/Kbuild.With this change, "make headers_install" will just need to parse
uapi/asm/Kbuild to build up exported headers.Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

A poisoned or migrated hugepage is stored as a swap entry in the page
tables. On architectures that support hugepages consisting of
contiguous page table entries (such as on arm64) this leads to ambiguity
in determining the page table entry to return in huge_pte_offset() when
a poisoned entry is encountered.Let's remove the ambiguity by adding a size parameter to convey
additional information about the requested address. Also fixup the
definition/usage of huge_pte_offset() throughout the tree.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170522133604.11392-4-punit.agrawal@arm.com

Pull SMP hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update is primarily a cleanup of the CPU hotplug locking code.The hotplug locking mechanism is an open coded RWSEM, which allows
recursive locking. The main problem with that is the recursive nature
as it evades the full lockdep coverage and hides potential deadlocks.The rework replaces the open coded RWSEM with a percpu RWSEM and
establishes full lockdep coverage that way.The bulk of the changes fix up recursive locking issues and address
the now fully reported potential deadlocks all over the place. Some of
these deadlocks have been observed in the RT tree, but on mainline the
probability was low enough to hide them away."* 'smp-hotplug-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (37 commits)
