commit bfc913682464f45bc4d6044084e370f9048de9d5 upstream.
Eiger machine vector definition has nr_irqs 128, and working 2.6.26
boot shows SCSI getting IRQ-s 64 and 65. Current kernel boot fails
because Symbios SCSI fails to request IRQ-s and does not find the disks.
It has been broken at least since 3.18 - the earliest I could test with
my gcc-5.The headers have moved around and possibly another order of defines has
worked in the past - but since 128 seems to be correct and used, fix
arch/alpha/include/asm/irq.h to have NR_IRQS=128 for Eiger.This fixes 4.19-rc7 boot on my Force Flexor A264 (Eiger subarch).

commit 491af60ffb848b59e82f7c9145833222e0bf27a5 upstream.
Fix page fault handling code to fixup r16-r18 registers.
Before the patch code had off-by-two registers bug.
This bug caused overwriting of ps,pc,gp registers instead
of fixing intended r16,r17,r18 (see `struct pt_regs`).More details:
Initially Dmitry noticed a kernel bug as a failure
on strace test suite. Test passes unmapped userspace
pointer to io_submit:```c
#include
#include
#include
#include
int main(void)
{
unsigned long ctx = 0;
if (syscall(__NR_io_setup, 1, &ctx))
err(1, "io_setup");
const size_t page_size = sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE);
const size_t size = page_size * 2;
void *ptr = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
if (MAP_FAILED == ptr)
err(1, "mmap(%zu)", size);
if (munmap(ptr, size))
err(1, "munmap");
syscall(__NR_io_submit, ctx, 1, ptr + page_size);
syscall(__NR_io_destroy, ctx);
return 0;
}
```Running this test causes kernel to crash when handling page fault:
```

Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint
Trace:

```Here `gp` has invalid value. `gp is s overwritten by a fixup for the
following page fault handler in `io_submit` syscall handler:```
__se_sys_io_submit

ldq a1,0(t1)

```After a page fault `t0` should contain -EFALUT and `a1` is 0.
Instead `gp` was overwritten in place of `a1`.This happens due to a off-by-two bug in `dpf_reg()` for `r16-r18`
(aka `a0-a2`).I think the bug went unnoticed for a long time as `gp` is one
of scratch registers. Any kernel function call would re-calculate `gp`.Dmitry tracked down the bug origin back to 2.1.32 kernel version
where trap_a{0,1,2} fields were inserted into struct pt_regs.
And even before that `dpf_reg()` contained off-by-one error.Cc: Richard Henderson

commit d0ffb805b729322626639336986bc83fc2e60871 upstream.
Alpha has had c_ispeed and c_ospeed, but still set speeds in c_cflags
using arbitrary flags. Because BOTHER is not defined, the general
Linux code doesn't allow setting arbitrary baud rates, and because
CBAUDEX == 0, we can have an array overrun of the baud_rate[] table in
drivers/tty/tty_baudrate.c if (c_cflags & CBAUD) == 037.Resolve both problems by #defining BOTHER to 037 on Alpha.
However, userspace still needs to know if setting BOTHER is actually
safe given legacy kernels (does anyone actually care about that on
Alpha anymore?), so enable the TCGETS2/TCSETS*2 ioctls on Alpha, even
though they use the same structure. Define struct termios2 just for
compatibility; it is the exact same structure as struct termios. In a
future patchset, this will be cleaned up so the uapi headers are
usable from libc.Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin (Intel)

Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler. For now, this is just
documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an
errno. Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a
distinct type.Ref-> commit 1c8f422059ae ("mm: change return type to vm_fault_t")
In this patch all the caller of handle_mm_fault() are changed to return
vm_fault_t type.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180617084810.GA6730@jordon-HP-15-Notebook-PC

Currently architectures can override __atomic_op_*() to define the barriers
used before/after a relaxed atomic when used to build acquire/release/fence
variants.This has the unfortunate property of requiring the architecture to define the
full wrapper for the atomics, rather than just the barriers they care about,
and gets in the way of generating atomics which can be easily read.Instead, this patch has architectures define an optional set of barriers:
* __atomic_acquire_fence()
* __atomic_release_fence()
* __atomic_pre_full_fence()
* __atomic_post_full_fence()... which uses to build the wrappers.
It would be nice if we could undef these, along with the __atomic_op_*()
wrappers, but that would break the cmpxchg() wrappers, which are written
in preprocessor. Undefs would have been nice, but alas.There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

This patch introduces SO_TXTIME. User space enables this option in
order to pass a desired future transmit time in a CMSG when calling
sendmsg(2). The argument to this socket option is a 8-bytes long struct
provided by the uapi header net_tstamp.h defined as:struct sock_txtime {
clockid_t clockid;

The conditional inc/dec ops differ for atomic_t and atomic64_t:
- atomic_inc_unless_positive() is optional for atomic_t, and doesn't exist for atomic64_t.
- atomic_dec_unless_negative() is optional for atomic_t, and doesn't exist for atomic64_t.
- atomic_dec_if_positive is optional for atomic_t, and is mandatory for atomic64_t.Let's make these consistently optional for both. At the same time, let's

Some of the atomics return the result of a test applied after the atomic
operation, and almost all architectures implement these as trivial
wrappers around the underlying atomic. Specifically:* _inc_and_test(v) is (_inc_return(v) == 0)
* _dec_and_test(v) is (_dec_return(v) == 0)
* _sub_and_test(i, v) is (_sub_return(i, v) == 0)
* _add_negative(i, v) is (_add_return(i, v) < 0)Rather than have these definitions duplicated in all architectures, with
minor inconsistencies in formatting and documentation, let's make these
operations optional, with default fallbacks as above. Implementations
must now provide a preprocessor symbol.The instrumented atomics are updated accordingly.
Both x86 and m68k have custom implementations, which are left as-is,
given preprocessor symbols to avoid being overridden.There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Several architectures these have a near-identical implementation based
on atomic_read() and atomic_cmpxchg() which we can instead define in
, so let's do so, using something close to the existing
x86 implementation with try_cmpxchg().Where an architecture provides its own atomic_fetch_add_unless(), it
must define a preprocessor symbol for it. The instrumented atomics are
updated accordingly.Note that arch/arc's existing atomic_fetch_add_unless() had redundant
barriers, as these are already present in its atomic_cmpxchg()
implementation.There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

While __atomic_add_unless() was originally intended as a building-block
for atomic_add_unless(), it's now used in a number of places around the
kernel. It's the only common atomic operation named __atomic*(), rather
than atomic_*(), and for consistency it would be better named
atomic_fetch_add_unless().This lack of consistency is slightly confusing, and gets in the way of
scripting atomics. Given that, let's clean things up and promote it to
an official part of the atomics API, in the form of
atomic_fetch_add_unless().This patch converts definitions and invocations over to the new name,
including the instrumented version, using the following script:----
git grep -w __atomic_add_unless | while read line; do
sed -i '{s/\/atomic_fetch_add_unless/}' "${line%%:*}";
done
git grep -w __arch_atomic_add_unless | while read line; do
sed -i '{s/\/arch_atomic_fetch_add_unless/}' "${line%%:*}";
done
----Note that we do not have atomic{64,_long}_fetch_add_unless(), which will
be introduced by later patches.There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Alpha provides a custom implementation of dec_and_lock(). The functions
is split into two parts:
- atomic_add_unless() + return 0 (fast path in assembly)
- remaining part including locking (slow path in C)Comparing the result of the alpha implementation with the generic
implementation compiled by gcc it looks like the fast path is optimized
by avoiding a stack frame (and reloading the GP), register store and all
this. This is only done in the slowpath.
After marking the slowpath (atomic_dec_and_lock_1()) as "noinline" and
doing the slowpath in C (the atomic_add_unless(atomic, -1, 1) part) I
noticed differences in the resulting assembly:
- the GP is still reloaded
- atomic_add_unless() adds more memory barriers compared to the custom
assembly
- the custom assembly here does "load, sub, beq" while
atomic_add_unless() does "load, cmpeq, add, bne". This is okay because
it compares against zero after subtraction while the generic code
compares against 1 before.I'm not sure if avoiding the stack frame (and GP reloading) brings a lot
in terms of performance. Regarding the different barriers, Peter
Zijlstra says:|refcount decrement needs to be a RELEASE operation, such that all the
|load/stores to the object happen before we decrement the refcount.
|
|Otherwise things like:
|
| obj->foo = 5;
| refcnt_dec(&obj->ref);
|
|can be re-ordered, which then allows fun scenarios like:
|
| CPU0 CPU1
|
| refcnt_dec(&obj->ref);
| if (dec_and_test(&obj->ref))
| free(obj);
| obj->foo = 5; // oops UaF
|
|
|This means (for alpha) that there should be a memory barrier _before_
|the decrement, however the dec_and_lock asm thing only has one _after_,
|which, per the above, is too late.
|
|The generic version using add_unless will result in memory barrier
|before and after (because that is the rule for atomic ops with a return
|value) which is strictly too many barriers for the refcount story, but
|who knows what other ordering requirements code has.Remove the custom alpha implementation of dec_and_lock() and if it is an
issue (performance wise) then the fast path could still be inlined.Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior

Pull siginfo updates from Eric Biederman:
"This set of changes close the known issues with setting si_code to an
invalid value, and with not fully initializing struct siginfo. There
remains work to do on nds32, arc, unicore32, powerpc, arm, arm64, ia64
and x86 to get the code that generates siginfo into a simpler and more
maintainable state. Most of that work involves refactoring the signal
handling code and thus careful code review.Also not included is the work to shrink the in kernel version of
struct siginfo. That depends on getting the number of places that
directly manipulate struct siginfo under control, as it requires the
introduction of struct kernel_siginfo for the in kernel things.Overall this set of changes looks like it is making good progress, and

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 for the other archs, like
issuing false warnings ('shift too big (32) for type unsigned long'), or
worse, failing to emit legitimate warnings.Fix this by adding the -m32/-m64 flag, depending on CONFIG_64BIT,
to CHECKFLAGS in the main Makefile (and so for all archs).
Also, remove the now unneeded -m32/-m64 in arch specific Makefiles.Signed-off-by: Luc Van Oostenryck

"When using writel(), a prior wmb() is not needed to guarantee that the

satisfying this requirement as the barrier is after the register write.Move mb() in writeX() and iowriteX() functions to guarantee that HW

Define this symbol if the architecture either uses 64-bit pointers or the
PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT is set. This covers 95% of the old arch magic. We only
need an additional select for Xen on ARM (why anyway?), and we now always
set ARCH_DMA_ADDR_T_64BIT on mips boards with 64-bit physical addressing
instead of only doing it when highmem is set.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig
