[ Upstream commit 8892d8545f2d0342b9c550defbfb165db237044b ]
Changing protection is a very high cost operation in UML
because in addition to an extra syscall it also interrupts
mmap merge sequences generated by the tlb.While the condition is not particularly common it is worth
avoiding.Signed-off-by: Anton Ivanov

Fixes:
arch/um/os-Linux/skas/process.c:613:1: warning: control reaches end of
non-void function [-Wreturn-type]longjmp() never returns but gcc still warns that the end of the function
can be reached.

Commit a0f97e06a43c ("kbuild: enable 'make CFLAGS=...' to add
additional options to CC") renamed CFLAGS to KBUILD_CFLAGS.Commit 222d394d30e7 ("kbuild: enable 'make AFLAGS=...' to add
additional options to AS") renamed AFLAGS to KBUILD_AFLAGS.Commit 06c5040cdb13 ("kbuild: enable 'make CPPFLAGS=...' to add
additional options to CPP") renamed CPPFLAGS to KBUILD_CPPFLAGS.For some reason, LDFLAGS was not renamed.
Using a well-known variable like LDFLAGS may result in accidental
override of the variable.Kbuild generally uses KBUILD_ prefixed variables for the internally
appended options, so here is one more conversion to sanitize the
naming convention.I did not touch Makefiles under tools/ since the tools build system
is a different world.Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

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

The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This
patch replaces cases of:kmalloc(a * b, gfp)
with:
kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp)as well as handling cases of:
kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp)
with:
kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)
as it's slightly less ugly than:
kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)
This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:
kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)
though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.
Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own
implementation of kmalloc().The Coccinelle script used for this was:

Tun, tap, virtio, packet and uml vector all use struct virtio_net_hdr
to communicate packet metadata to userspace.For skbuffs with vlan, the first two return the packet as it may have
existed on the wire, inserting the VLAN tag in the user buffer. Then
virtio_net_hdr.csum_start needs to be adjusted by VLAN_HLEN bytes.Commit f09e2249c4f5 ("macvtap: restore vlan header on user read")
added this feature to macvtap. Commit 3ce9b20f1971 ("macvtap: Fix
csum_start when VLAN tags are present") then fixed up csum_start.Virtio, packet and uml do not insert the vlan header in the user
buffer.When introducing virtio_net_hdr_from_skb to deduplicate filling in
the virtio_net_hdr, the variant from macvtap which adds VLAN_HLEN was
applied uniformly, breaking csum offset for packets with vlan on
virtio and packet.Make insertion of VLAN_HLEN optional. Convert the callers to pass it
when needed.Fixes: e858fae2b0b8f4 ("virtio_net: use common code for virtio_net_hdr and skb GSO conversion")

Pull Kconfig updates from Masahiro Yamada:
"Kconfig now supports new functionality to perform textual

'ld-option', etc. are implemented as macros.Summary:
- refactor package checks for building {m,n,q,g}conf
- remove unused/unmaintained localization support
- remove Kbuild cache
- drop CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE support
- replace 'option env=' with direct variable expansion
- add built-in functions such as 'shell'

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
with a little luck I will be wrapping up the siginfo work next

To get access to environment variables, Kconfig needs to define a
symbol using "option env=" syntax. It is tedious to add a symbol entry
for each environment variable given that we need to define much more
such as 'CC', 'AS', 'srctree' etc. to evaluate the compiler capability
in Kconfig.Adding '$' for symbol references is grammatically inconsistent.
Looking at the code, the symbols prefixed with 'S' are expanded by:
- conf_expand_value()
This is used to expand 'arch/$ARCH/defconfig' and 'defconfig_list'
- sym_expand_string_value()
This is used to expand strings in 'source' and 'mainmenu'All of them are fixed values independent of user configuration. So,
they can be changed into the direct expansion instead of symbols.This change makes the code much cleaner. The bounce symbols 'SRCARCH',
'ARCH', 'SUBARCH', 'KERNELVERSION' are gone.sym_init() hard-coding 'UNAME_RELEASE' is also gone. 'UNAME_RELEASE'
should be replaced with an environment variable.ARCH_DEFCONFIG is a normal symbol, so it should be simply referenced
without '$' prefix.The new syntax is addicted by Make. The variable reference needs
parentheses, like $(FOO), but you can omit them for single-letter
variables, like $F. Yet, in Makefiles, people tend to use the
parenthetical form for consistency / clarification.At this moment, only the environment variable is supported, but I will
extend the concept of 'variable' later on.The variables are expanded in the lexer so we can simplify the token
handling on the parser side.For example, the following code works.
[Example code]
config MY_TOOLCHAIN_LIST
string
default "My tools: CC=$(CC), AS=$(AS), CPP=$(CPP)"[Result]
$ make -s alldefconfig && tail -n 1 .config
CONFIG_MY_TOOLCHAIN_LIST="My tools: CC=gcc, AS=as, CPP=gcc -E"Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

There is a bug in relay signal. It assumes that when a signal is
relayed the signal never uses a signal independent si_code, such
as SI_USER, SI_KERNEL, SI_QUEUE, ... SI_SIGIO etc. In practice
siginfo was assuming it was relaying a signal with the SIL_FAULT
layout. As that is the common cases for the signals it supported
that is a reasonable assumption.Further user mode linux must be very careful when relaying different
kinds of signals to prevent an information leak. This means simply
increasing the kinds of signals that are handled in relay_signal
is non-trivial.Therefore use siginfo_layout and force_sig_fault to simplify
the signal relaying in relay_signal.By taking advantage of the fact that user mode linux only works
on x86 and x86_64 we can assume that si_trapno can be ignored,
and that si_errno is always zero.For the signals SIGLL, SIGFPE, SIGSEGV, SIGBUS, and SIGTRAP the only
fault handler I know of that sets si_errno is SIGTRAP TRAP_HWBKPT on a
few oddball architectures. Those architectures have been modified to
use force_sig_ptrace_errno_trap.Similarly only a few architectures set __ARCH_SI_TRAPNO.
At the point uml supports those architectures again these additional
cases can be examined and supported if desired in relay_signal.Cc: Jeff Dike

Filling in struct siginfo before calling force_sig_info a tedious and
error prone process, where once in a great while the wrong fields
are filled out, and siginfo has been inconsistently cleared.Simplify this process by using the helper force_sig_fault. Which
takes as a parameters all of the information it needs, ensures
all of the fiddly bits of filling in struct siginfo are done properly
and then calls force_sig_info.In short about a 5 line reduction in code for every time force_sig_info
is called, which makes the calling function clearer.Cc: Jeff Dike

Call clear_siginfo to ensure every stack allocated siginfo is properly
initialized before being passed to the signal sending functions.Note: It is not safe to depend on C initializers to initialize struct
siginfo on the stack because C is allowed to skip holes when
initializing a structure.The initialization of struct siginfo in tracehook_report_syscall_exit
was moved from the helper user_single_step_siginfo into
tracehook_report_syscall_exit itself, to make it clear that the local
variable siginfo gets fully initialized.In a few cases the scope of struct siginfo has been reduced to make it
clear that siginfo siginfo is not used on other paths in the function
in which it is declared.Instances of using memset to initialize siginfo have been replaced
with calls clear_siginfo for clarity.Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman"

We have a couple of files that try to include asm/compat.h on
architectures where this is available. Those should generally use the
higher-level linux/compat.h file, but that in turn fails to include
asm/compat.h when CONFIG_COMPAT is disabled, unless we can provide
that header on all architectures.This adds the asm/compat.h for all remaining architectures to
simplify the dependencies.Architectures that are getting removed in linux-4.17 are not changed
here, to avoid needless conflicts with the removal patches. Those
architectures are broken by this patch, but we have already shown
that they have no users.Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

Using this helper allows us to avoid the in-kernel calls to the
sys_mmap_pgoff() syscall. The ksys_ prefix denotes that this function is
meant as a drop-in replacement for the syscall. In particular, it uses the
same calling convention as sys_mmap_pgoff().This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls.
On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined. For details, see

If 'find_device()' finds something, we set '*error_out' and we should
return an error. However, 'err' is known to be 0 at this point.Explicitly return -EINVAL instead.
While at it, remove the initialization of 'err' at the beginning of the
function and also explicitly return an error code if the first check
fails.Fixes: ad1f62ab2bd4 ("High Performance UML Vector Network Driver")
