Pull ARM SoC/iommu configuration update from Arnd Bergmann:
"The iomm-config branch contains work from Will Deacon, quoting his
description:This series adds automatic IOMMU and DMA-mapping configuration for
OF-based DMA masters described using the generic IOMMU devicetree
bindings. Although there is plenty of future work around splitting up
iommu_ops, adding default IOMMU domains and sorting out automatic IOMMU
group creation for the platform_bus, this is already useful enough for
people to port over their IOMMU drivers and start using the new probing
infrastructure (indeed, Marek has patches queued for the Exynos IOMMU).The branch touches core ARM and IOMMU driver files, and the respective
maintainers (Russell King and Joerg Roedel) agreed to have the
contents merged through the arm-soc tree.The final version was ready just before the merge window, so we ended
up delaying it a bit longer than the rest, but we don't expect to see
regressions because this is just additional infrastructure that will
get used in drivers starting in 3.20 but is unused so far"* tag 'iommu-config-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc:

There are a number of situations where the mandatory barriers rmb() and
wmb() are used to order memory/memory operations in the device drivers
and those barriers are much heavier than they actually need to be. For
example in the case of PowerPC wmb() calls the heavy-weight sync
instruction when for coherent memory operations all that is really needed
is an lsync or eieio instruction.This commit adds a coherent only version of the mandatory memory barriers
rmb() and wmb(). In most cases this should result in the barrier being the
same as the SMP barriers for the SMP case, however in some cases we use a
barrier that is somewhere in between rmb() and smp_rmb(). For example on
ARM the rmb barriers break down as follows:Barrier Call Explanation
--------- -------- ----------------------------------
rmb() dsb() Data synchronization barrier - system
dma_rmb() dmb(osh) data memory barrier - outer sharable
smp_rmb() dmb(ish) data memory barrier - inner sharableThese new barriers are not as safe as the standard rmb() and wmb().
Specifically they do not guarantee ordering between coherent and incoherent
memories. The primary use case for these would be to enforce ordering of
reads and writes when accessing coherent memory that is shared between the
CPU and a device.It may also be noted that there is no dma_mb(). Most architectures don't
provide a good mechanism for performing a coherent only full barrier without
resorting to the same mechanism used in mb(). As such there isn't much to
be gained in trying to define such a function.Cc: Frederic Weisbecker

mmio for PCI, an artifact of the how PCI memory is accessed.Two patches for the memory management with changes to common code.
For KVM mm_forbids_zeropage is added which disables the empty zero
page for an mm that is used by a KVM process. And an optimization,
pmdp_get_and_clear_full is added analog to ptep_get_and_clear_full.Some micro optimization for the cmpxchg and the spinlock code.

Pull irq domain updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The real interesting irq updates:- Support for hierarchical irq domains:
For complex interrupt routing scenarios where more than one
interrupt related chip is involved we had no proper representation
in the generic interrupt infrastructure so far. That made people
implement rather ugly constructs in their nested irq chip
implementations. The main offenders are x86 and arm/gic.To distangle that mess we have now hierarchical irqdomains which
seperate the various interrupt chips and connect them via the
hierarchical domains. That keeps the domain specific details
internal to the particular hierarchy level and removes the
criss/cross referencing of chip internals. The resulting hierarchy
for a complex x86 system will look like this:vector mapped: 74
msi-0 mapped: 2
dmar-ir-1 mapped: 69
ioapic-1 mapped: 4
ioapic-0 mapped: 20
pci-msi-2 mapped: 45
dmar-ir-0 mapped: 3
ioapic-2 mapped: 1
pci-msi-1 mapped: 2
htirq mapped: 0Neither ioapic nor pci-msi know about the dmar interrupt remapping
between themself and the vector domain. If interrupt remapping is
disabled ioapic and pci-msi become direct childs of the vector
domain.In hindsight we should have done that years ago, but in hindsight
we always know better :)- Support for generic MSI interrupt domain handling
We have more and more non PCI related MSI interrupts, so providing
a generic infrastructure for this is better than having all
affected architectures implementing their own private hacks.- Support for PCI-MSI interrupt domain handling, based on the generic
MSI support.This part carries the pci/msi branch from Bjorn Helgaas pci tree to
avoid a massive conflict. The PCI/MSI parts are acked by Bjorn.I have two more branches on top of this. The full conversion of x86

This instruments might_sleep() checks to catch places that nest

bugs can result in hard to debug races/hangs.Another category of invalid nesting that this facility will detect
is the calling of blocking functions from within schedule() ->
sched_submit_work() -> blk_schedule_flush_plug().There's some potential for false positives (if secondary blocking
primitives themselves are not ready yet for this facility), but the
kernel will warn once about such bugs per bootup, so the warning
isn't much of a nuisance.This feature comes with a number of fixes, for problems uncovered

IOMMU drivers must be initialised before any of their upstream devices,
otherwise the relevant iommu_ops won't be configured for the bus in
question. To solve this, a number of IOMMU drivers use initcalls to
initialise the driver before anything has a chance to be probed.Whilst this solves the immediate problem, it leaves the job of probing
the IOMMU completely separate from the iommu_ops to configure the IOMMU,
which are called on a per-bus basis and require the driver to figure out
exactly which instance of the IOMMU is being requested. In particular,
the add_device callback simply passes a struct device to the driver,
which then has to parse firmware tables or probe buses to identify the
relevant IOMMU instance.This patch takes the first step in addressing this problem by adding an
early initialisation pass for IOMMU drivers, giving them the ability to
store some per-instance data in their iommu_ops structure and store that
in their of_node. This can later be used when parsing OF masters to
identify the IOMMU instance in question.Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann

To support MSI irq domains we want a generic data structure for
allocation, but we need the option to provide an architecture specific
version of it. So instead of playing #ifdef games in linux/msi.h we
add a generic header file and let architectures decide whether to
include it or to provide their own implementation and provide the
required typedef.I know that typedefs are not really nice, but in this case there are no
forward declarations required and it's the simplest solution.Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner

The x86 MPX patch set calls arch_unmap() and arch_bprm_mm_init()
from fs/exec.c, so we need at least a stub for them in all
architectures. They are only called under an #ifdef for
CONFIG_MMU=y, so we can at least restict this to architectures
with MMU support.blackfin/c6x have no MMU support, so do not call arch_unmap().
They also do not include mm_hooks.h or mmu_context.h at all and
do not need to be touched.s390, um and unicore32 do not use asm-generic/mm_hooks.h, so got
their own arch_unmap() versions. (I also moved um's
arch_dup_mmap() to be closer to the other mm_hooks.h functions).xtensa only includes mm_hooks when MMU=y, which should be fine
since arch_unmap() is called only from MMU=y code.For the rest, we use the stub copies of these functions in
asm-generic/mm_hook.h.I cross compiled defconfigs for cris (to check NOMMU) and s390
to make sure that this works. I also checked a 64-bit build
of UML and all my normal x86 builds including PARAVIRT on and

The previous patch allocates bounds tables on-demand. As noted in
an earlier description, these can add up to *HUGE* amounts of
memory. This has caused OOMs in practice when running tests.This patch adds support for freeing bounds tables when they are no
longer in use.There are two types of mappings in play when unmapping tables:
1. The mapping with the actual data, which userspace is
munmap()ing or brk()ing away, etc...
2. The mapping for the bounds table *backing* the data
(is tagged with VM_MPX, see the patch "add MPX specific
mmap interface").If userspace use the prctl() indroduced earlier in this patchset
to enable the management of bounds tables in kernel, when it
unmaps the first type of mapping with the actual data, the kernel
needs to free the mapping for the bounds table backing the data.
This patch hooks in at the very end of do_unmap() to do so.
We look at the addresses being unmapped and find the bounds
directory entries and tables which cover those addresses. If
an entire table is unused, we clear associated directory entry
and free the table.Once we unmap the bounds table, we would have a bounds directory
entry pointing at empty address space. That address space might
now be allocated for some other (random) use, and the MPX
hardware might now try to walk it as if it were a bounds table.
That would be bad. So any unmapping of an enture bounds table
has to be accompanied by a corresponding write to the bounds
directory entry to invalidate it. That write to the bounds
directory can fault, which causes the following problem:Since we are doing the freeing from munmap() (and other paths
like it), we hold mmap_sem for write. If we fault, the page
fault handler will attempt to acquire mmap_sem for read and
we will deadlock. To avoid the deadlock, we pagefault_disable()
when touching the bounds directory entry and use a
get_user_pages() to resolve the fault.The unmapping of bounds tables happends under vm_munmap(). We
also (indirectly) call vm_munmap() to _do_ the unmapping of the
bounds tables. We avoid unbounded recursion by disallowing
freeing of bounds tables *for* bounds tables. This would not
occur normally, so should not have any practical impact. Being
strict about it here helps ensure that we do not have an
exploitable stack overflow.Based-on-patch-by: Qiaowei Ren

This is really the meat of the MPX patch set. If there is one patch to
review in the entire series, this is the one. There is a new ABI here
and this kernel code also interacts with userspace memory in a
relatively unusual manner. (small FAQ below).Long Description:
This patch adds two prctl() commands to provide enable or disable the
management of bounds tables in kernel, including on-demand kernel
allocation (See the patch "on-demand kernel allocation of bounds tables")
and cleanup (See the patch "cleanup unused bound tables"). Applications
do not strictly need the kernel to manage bounds tables and we expect
some applications to use MPX without taking advantage of this kernel
support. This means the kernel can not simply infer whether an application
needs bounds table management from the MPX registers. The prctl() is an
explicit signal from userspace.PR_MPX_ENABLE_MANAGEMENT is meant to be a signal from userspace to
require kernel's help in managing bounds tables.PR_MPX_DISABLE_MANAGEMENT is the opposite, meaning that userspace don't
want kernel's help any more. With PR_MPX_DISABLE_MANAGEMENT, the kernel
won't allocate and free bounds tables even if the CPU supports MPX.PR_MPX_ENABLE_MANAGEMENT will fetch the base address of the bounds
directory out of a userspace register (bndcfgu) and then cache it into
a new field (->bd_addr) in the 'mm_struct'. PR_MPX_DISABLE_MANAGEMENT
will set "bd_addr" to an invalid address. Using this scheme, we can
use "bd_addr" to determine whether the management of bounds tables in
kernel is enabled.Also, the only way to access that bndcfgu register is via an xsaves,
which can be expensive. Caching "bd_addr" like this also helps reduce
the cost of those xsaves when doing table cleanup at munmap() time.
Unfortunately, we can not apply this optimization to #BR fault time
because we need an xsave to get the value of BNDSTATUS.==== Why does the hardware even have these Bounds Tables? ====
MPX only has 4 hardware registers for storing bounds information.
If MPX-enabled code needs more than these 4 registers, it needs to
spill them somewhere. It has two special instructions for this
which allow the bounds to be moved between the bounds registers
and some new "bounds tables".They are similar conceptually to a page fault and will be raised by
the MPX hardware during both bounds violations or when the tables
are not present. This patch handles those #BR exceptions for
not-present tables by carving the space out of the normal processes
address space (essentially calling the new mmap() interface indroduced
earlier in this patch set.) and then pointing the bounds-directory
over to it.The tables *need* to be accessed and controlled by userspace because
the instructions for moving bounds in and out of them are extremely
frequent. They potentially happen every time a register pointing to
memory is dereferenced. Any direct kernel involvement (like a syscall)
to access the tables would obviously destroy performance.==== Why not do this in userspace? ====
This patch is obviously doing this allocation in the kernel.
However, MPX does not strictly *require* anything in the kernel.
It can theoretically be done completely from userspace. Here are
a few ways this *could* be done. I don't think any of them are
practical in the real-world, but here they are.Q: Can virtual space simply be reserved for the bounds tables so
that we never have to allocate them?
A: As noted earlier, these tables are *HUGE*. An X-GB virtual
area needs 4*X GB of virtual space, plus 2GB for the bounds
directory. If we were to preallocate them for the 128TB of
user virtual address space, we would need to reserve 512TB+2GB,
which is larger than the entire virtual address space today.
This means they can not be reserved ahead of time. Also, a
single process's pre-popualated bounds directory consumes 2GB
of virtual *AND* physical memory. IOW, it's completely
infeasible to prepopulate bounds directories.Q: Can we preallocate bounds table space at the same time memory
is allocated which might contain pointers that might eventually
need bounds tables?
A: This would work if we could hook the site of each and every
memory allocation syscall. This can be done for small,
constrained applications. But, it isn't practical at a larger
scale since a given app has no way of controlling how all the
parts of the app might allocate memory (think libraries). The
kernel is really the only place to intercept these calls.Q: Could a bounds fault be handed to userspace and the tables
allocated there in a signal handler instead of in the kernel?
A: (thanks to tglx) mmap() is not on the list of safe async
handler functions and even if mmap() would work it still
requires locking or nasty tricks to keep track of the
allocation state there.Having ruled out all of the userspace-only approaches for managing
bounds tables that we could think of, we create them on demand in
the kernel.Based-on-patch-by: Qiaowei Ren

On architectures with hardware broadcasting of TLB invalidation messages
, it makes sense to reduce the range of the mmu_gather structure when
unmapping page ranges based on the dirty address information passed to
tlb_remove_tlb_entry.arm64 already does this by directly manipulating the start/end fields
of the gather structure, but this confuses the generic code which
does not expect these fields to change and can end up calculating
invalid, negative ranges when forcing a flush in zap_pte_range.This patch moves the minimal range calculation out of the arm64 code
and into the generic implementation, simplifying zap_pte_range in the
process (which no longer needs to care about start/end, since they will
point to the appropriate ranges already). With the range being tracked
by core code, the need_flush flag is dropped in favour of checking that
the end of the range has actually been set.Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

This reverts commit e5a2c899957659cd1a9f789bc462f9c0b35f5150.
Commit e5a2c899 introduced an alternative_call, arch_fast_hash2,
that selects between __jhash2 and __intel_crc4_2_hash based on the
X86_FEATURE_XMM4_2.Unfortunately, the alternative_call system does not appear to be
suitable for use with C functions, as register usage is not handled
properly for the called functions. The __jhash2 function in particular
clobbers registers that are not preserved when called via
alternative_call, resulting in a panic for direct callers of
arch_fast_hash2 on older CPUs lacking sse4_2. It is possible that
__intel_crc4_2_hash works merely by chance because it uses fewer
registers.This commit was suggested as the source of the problem by Jesse

Currently driver writers need to use io{read,write}{8,16,32}_rep() when
accessing FIFO registers portably. This is bad for two reasons: it is
inconsistent with how other registers are accessed using the standard
{read,write}{b,w,l}() functions, which can lead to confusion. On some
architectures the io{read,write}*() functions also need to perform some
extra checks to determine whether an address is memory-mapped or refers
to I/O space. Drivers which can be expected to never use I/O can safely
use the {read,write}s{b,w,l,q}(), just like they use their non-string
variants and there's no need for these extra checks.This patch implements generic versions of readsb(), readsw(), readsl(),
readsq(), writesb(), writesw(), writesl() and writesq(). Variants of
these string functions for I/O accesses (ins*() and outs*() as well as
ioread*_rep() and iowrite*_rep()) are now implemented in terms of the
new functions.Going forward, {read,write}{,s}{b,w,l,q}() should be used consistently
by drivers for devices that will only ever be memory-mapped and hence
don't need to access I/O space, whereas io{read,write}{8,16,32}_rep()
should be used by drivers for devices that can be either memory-mapped
or I/O-mapped.Signed-off-by: Thierry Reding

Overriding I/O accessors and helpers is currently very inconsistent.
This commit introduces a homogeneous way to override functions by
checking for the existence of a macro with the same of the function.
Architectures can provide their own implementations and communicate this
to the generic header by defining the appropriate macro. Doing this will
also help prevent the implementations from being subsequently
overridden.While at it, also turn a lot of macros into static inline functions for
better type checking and to provide a canonical signature for overriding
architectures to copy. Also reorder functions by logical groups.Signed-off-by: Thierry Reding

By default the arch_fast_hash hashing function pointers are initialized
to jhash(2). If during boot-up a CPU with SSE4.2 is detected they get
updated to the CRC32 ones. This dispatching scheme incurs a function
pointer lookup and indirect call for every hashing operation.rhashtable as a user of arch_fast_hash e.g. stores pointers to hashing
functions in its structure, too, causing two indirect branches per
hashing operation.Using alternative_call we can get away with one of those indirect branches.

{read,write}{b,w,l,q}_relaxed are implemented by some architectures in
order to permit memory-mapped I/O accesses with weaker barrier semantics
than the non-relaxed variants.This patch adds wrappers to asm-generic so that drivers can rely on the
relaxed accessors being available, even if they don't always provide
weaker ordering guarantees. Since some architectures both include
asm-generic/io.h and define some relaxed accessors, the definitions here
are conditional for the time being.Cc: Arnd Bergmann

Pull audit updates from Eric Paris:
"So this change across a whole bunch of arches really solves one basic
problem. We want to audit when seccomp is killing a process. seccomp
hooks in before the audit syscall entry code. audit_syscall_entry
took as an argument the arch of the given syscall. Since the arch is
part of what makes a syscall number meaningful it's an important part
of the record, but it isn't available when seccomp shoots the
syscall...For most arch's we have a better way to get the arch (syscall_get_arch)
So the solution was two fold: Implement syscall_get_arch() everywhere
there is audit which didn't have it. Use syscall_get_arch() in the
seccomp audit code. Having syscall_get_arch() everywhere meant it was
a useless flag on the stack and we could get rid of it for the typical
syscall entry.The other changes inside the audit system aren't grand, fixed some
records that had invalid spaces. Better locking around the task comm

Pull clock tree updates from Mike Turquette:
"The clk tree changes for 3.18 are dominated by clock drivers. Mostly
fixes and enhancements to existing drivers as well as new drivers.
This tag contains a bit more arch code than I usually take due to some
OMAP2+ changes. Additionally it contains the restart notifier
handlers which are merged as a dependency into several trees.The PXA changes are the only messy part. Due to having a stable tree
I had to revert one patch and follow up with one more fix near the tip
of this tag. Some dead code is introduced but it will soon become
live code after 3.18-rc1 is released as the rest of the PXA family is
converted over to the common clock framework.Another trend in this tag is that multiple vendors have started to
push the complexity of changing their CPU frequency into the clock
driver, whereas this used to be done in CPUfreq drivers.Changes to the clk core include a generic gpio-clock type and a
clk_set_phase() function added to the top-level clk.h api. Due to
some confusion on the fbdev mailing list the kernel boot parameters
documentation was updated to further explain the clk_ignore_unused
parameter, which is often required by users of the simplefb driver.Finally some fixes to the locking around the clock debugfs stuff was
done to prevent deadlocks when interacting with other subsystems."* tag 'clk-for-linus-3.18' of git://git.linaro.org/people/mike.turquette/linux: (99 commits)

For VMAs that don't want write notifications, PTEs created for read faults
have their write bit set. If the read fault happens after VM_SOFTDIRTY is
cleared, then the PTE's softdirty bit will remain clear after subsequent
writes.Here's a simple code snippet to demonstrate the bug:
char* m = mmap(NULL, getpagesize(), PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_SHARED, -1, 0);
system("echo 4 > /proc/$PPID/clear_refs"); /* clear VM_SOFTDIRTY */
assert(*m == '\0'); /* new PTE allows write access */
assert(!soft_dirty(x));
*m = 'x'; /* should dirty the page */
assert(soft_dirty(x)); /* fails */With this patch, write notifications are enabled when VM_SOFTDIRTY is
cleared. Furthermore, to avoid unnecessary faults, write notifications
are disabled when VM_SOFTDIRTY is set.As a side effect of enabling and disabling write notifications with
care, this patch fixes a bug in mprotect where vm_page_prot bits set by
drivers were zapped on mprotect. An analogous bug was fixed in mmap by

For architectures without coherent DMA, memory for DMA may need to be
remapped with coherent attributes. Factor out the the remapping code from
arm and put it in a common location to reduce code duplication.As part of this, the arm APIs are now migrated away from
ioremap_page_range to the common APIs which use map_vm_area for remapping.
This should be an equivalent change and using map_vm_area is more correct
as ioremap_page_range is intended to bring in io addresses into the cpu
space and not regular kernel managed memory.Signed-off-by: Laura Abbott

ARCH_USES_NUMA_PROT_NONE was defined for architectures that implemented
_PAGE_NUMA using _PROT_NONE. This saved using an additional PTE bit and
relied on the fact that PROT_NONE vmas were skipped by the NUMA hinting
fault scanner. This was found to be conceptually confusing with a lot of
implicit assumptions and it was asked that an alternative be found.Commit c46a7c81 "x86: define _PAGE_NUMA by reusing software bits on the
PMD and PTE levels" redefined _PAGE_NUMA on x86 to be one of the swap PTE
bits and shrunk the maximum possible swap size but it did not go far
enough. There are no architectures that reuse _PROT_NONE as _PROT_NUMA
but the relics still exist.This patch removes ARCH_USES_NUMA_PROT_NONE and removes some unnecessary
duplication in powerpc vs the generic implementation by defining the types

equivalent. This necessitated that a PTE bit mask be created that
identified the bits that distinguish present from NUMA pte entries but it
is expected this will only differ between arches based on _PAGE_PROTNONE.
The naming for the generic helpers was taken from x86 originally but ppc64
has types that are equivalent for the purposes of the helper so they are
mapped instead of duplicating code.Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman
