Add the io_uring and pidfd_send_signal system calls to all architectures.
These system calls are designed to handle both native and compat tasks,
so all entries are the same across architectures, only arm-compat and

After removing the start and count arguments of syscall_get_arguments() it
seems reasonable to remove them from syscall_set_arguments(). Note, as of
today, there are no users of syscall_set_arguments(). But we are told that
there will be soon. But for now, at least make it consistent with
syscall_get_arguments().Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190327222014.GA32540@altlinux.org

At Linux Plumbers, Andy Lutomirski approached me and pointed out that the
function call syscall_get_arguments() implemented in x86 was horribly
written and not optimized for the standard case of passing in 0 and 6 for
the starting index and the number of system calls to get. When looking at
all the users of this function, I discovered that all instances pass in only
0 and 6 for these arguments. Instead of having this function handle
different cases that are never used, simply rewrite it to return the first 6
arguments of a system call.This should help out the performance of tracing system calls by ptrace,
ftrace and perf.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161107213233.754809394@goodmis.org

I do not see any consistency about headers_install of

[1] Both and are exported
alpha, arm, hexagon, mips, powerpc, s390, sparc, x86
[2] is exported, but is not

parisc, sh, unicore32, xtensa[3] Neither nor is exported
csky, nds32, riscv
This does not match to the actual KVM support. At least, [2] is
half-baked.Nor do arch maintainers look like they care about this. For example,
commit 0add53713b1c ("microblaze: Add missing kvm_para.h to Kbuild")
exported to user-space in order to fix an in-kernel
build error.We have two ways to make this consistent:
[A] export both and for all
architectures, irrespective of the KVM support[B] Match the header export of and
to the KVM supportMy first attempt was [A] because the code looks cleaner, but Paolo
suggested [B].So, this commit goes with [B].
For most architectures, was moved to the kernel-space.
I changed include/uapi/linux/Kbuild so that it checks generated
asm/kvm_para.h as well as check-in ones.After this commit, there will be two groups:

Every in-kernel use of this function defined it to KERNEL_DS (either as
an actual define, or as an inline function). It's an entirely
historical artifact, and long long long ago used to actually read the
segment selector valueof '%ds' on x86.Which in the kernel is always KERNEL_DS.
Inspired by a patch from Jann Horn that just did this for a very small
subset of users (the ones in fs/), along with Al who suggested a script.
I then just took it to the logical extreme and removed all the remaining
gunk.Roughly scripted with
git grep -l '(get_ds())' -- :^tools/ | xargs sed -i 's/(get_ds())/(KERNEL_DS)/'
git grep -lw 'get_ds' -- :^tools/ | xargs sed -i '/^#define get_ds()/d'plus manual fixups to remove a few unusual usage patterns, the couple of
inline function cases and to fix up a comment that had become stale.The 'get_ds()' function remains in an x86 kvm selftest, since in user
space it actually does something relevant.Inspired-by: Jann Horn

…rnd/playground into timers/2038
Pull additional syscall ABI cleanup for y2038 from Arnd Bergmann:
This is a follow-up to the y2038 syscall patches already merged in the tip
tree. As the final 32-bit RISC-V syscall ABI is still being decided on,
this is the last chance to make a few corrections to leave out interfaces
based on 32-bit time_t along with the old off_t and rlimit types.The series achieves this in a few steps:
- A couple of bug fixes for minor regressions I introduced
in the original series- A couple of older patches from Yury Norov that I had never
merged in the past, these fix up the openat/open_by_handle_at and
getrlimit/setrlimit syscalls to disallow the old versions of off_t
and rlimit.- Hiding the deprecated system calls behind an #ifdef in
include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h- Change arch/riscv to drop all these ABIs.
Originally, the plan was to also leave these out on C-Sky, but that now
has a glibc port that uses the older interfaces, so we need to leave
them in place.

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 y2038 - time64 system calls from Arnd Bergmann:
This series finally gets us to the point of having system calls with 64-bit
time_t on all architectures, after a long time of incremental preparation
patches.There was actually one conversion that I missed during the summer,
i.e. Deepa's timex series, which I now updated based the 5.0-rc1 changes
and review comments.The following system calls are now added on all 32-bit architectures using
the same system call numbers:403 clock_gettime64
404 clock_settime64
405 clock_adjtime64
406 clock_getres_time64
407 clock_nanosleep_time64
408 timer_gettime64

420 semtimedop_time64
421 rt_sigtimedwait_time64
422 futex_time64
423 sched_rr_get_interval_time64Each one of these corresponds directly to an existing system call that
includes a 'struct timespec' argument, or a structure containing a timespec
or (in case of clock_adjtime) timeval. Not included here are new versions
of getitimer/setitimer and getrusage/waitid, which are planned for the
future but only needed to make a consistent API rather than for correct
operation beyond y2038. These four system calls are based on 'timeval', and
it has not been finally decided what the replacement kernel interface will
use instead.So far, I have done a lot of build testing across most architectures, which
has found a number of bugs. Runtime testing so far included testing LTP on
32-bit ARM with the existing system calls, to ensure we do not regress for
existing binaries, and a test with a 32-bit x86 build of LTP against a
modified version of the musl C library that has been adapted to the new
system call interface [3]. This library can be used for testing on all
architectures supported by musl-1.1.21, but it is not how the support is
getting integrated into the official musl release. Official musl support is
planned but will require more invasive changes to the library.Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190110162435.309262-1-arnd@arndb.de/T/

…git/arnd/playground into timers/2038
Pull preparatory work for y2038 changes from Arnd Bergmann:
System call unification and cleanup
The system call tables have diverged a bit over the years, and a number of
the recent additions never made it into all architectures, for one reason
or another.This is an attempt to clean it up as far as we can without breaking
compatibility, doing a number of steps:- Add system calls that have not yet been integrated into all architectures
but that we definitely want there. This includes {,f}statfs64() and
get{eg,eu,g,p,u,pp}id() on alpha, which have been missing traditionally.- The s390 compat syscall handling is cleaned up to be more like what we
do on other architectures, while keeping the 31-bit pointer
extension. This was merged as a shared branch by the s390 maintainers
and is included here in order to base the other patches on top.- Add the separate ipc syscalls on all architectures that traditionally
only had sys_ipc(). This version is done without support for IPC_OLD
that is we have in sys_ipc. The new semtimedop_time64 syscall will only
be added here, not in sys_ipc- Add syscall numbers for a couple of syscalls that we probably don't need
everywhere, in particular pkey_* and rseq, for the purpose of symmetry:
if it's in asm-generic/unistd.h, it makes sense to have it everywhere. I
expect that any future system calls will get assigned on all platforms
together, even when they appear to be specific to a single architecture.- Prepare for having the same system call numbers for any future calls. In
combination with the generated tables, this hopefully makes it easier to
add new calls across all architectures together.All of the above are technically separate from the y2038 work, but are done
as preparation before we add the new 64-bit time_t system calls everywhere,
providing a common baseline set of system calls.I expect that glibc and other libraries that want to use 64-bit time_t will
require linux-5.1 kernel headers for building in the future, and at a much
later point may also require linux-5.1 or a later version as the minimum
kernel at runtime. Having a common baseline then allows the removal of many
architecture or kernel version specific workarounds.

This adds 21 new system calls on each ABI that has 32-bit time_t
today. All of these have the exact same semantics as their existing
counterparts, and the new ones all have macro names that end in 'time64'
for clarification.This gets us to the point of being able to safely use a C library
that has 64-bit time_t in user space. There are still a couple of
loose ends to tie up in various areas of the code, but this is the
big one, and should be entirely uncontroversial at this point.In particular, there are four system calls (getitimer, setitimer,
waitid, and getrusage) that don't have a 64-bit counterpart yet,
but these can all be safely implemented in the C library by wrapping
around the existing system calls because the 32-bit time_t they
pass only counts elapsed time, not time since the epoch. They
will be dealt with later.Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

The time, stime, utime, utimes, and futimesat system calls are only
used on older architectures, and we do not provide y2038 safe variants
of them, as they are replaced by clock_gettime64, clock_settime64,
and utimensat_time64.However, for consistency it seems better to have the 32-bit architectures
that still use them call the "time32" entry points (leaving the
traditional handlers for the 64-bit architectures), like we do for system
calls that now require two versions.Note: We used to always define __ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME and
__ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME and only set __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_SYS_TIME and
__ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME32 for compat mode on 64-bit kernels. Now this is
reversed: only 64-bit architectures set __ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME/UTIME, while
we need __ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME32/UTIME32 for 32-bit architectures and compat
mode. The resulting asm/unistd.h changes look a bit counterintuitive.This is only a cleanup patch and it should not change any behavior.

This is the big flip, where all 32-bit architectures set COMPAT_32BIT_TIME
and use the _time32 system calls from the former compat layer instead
of the system calls that take __kernel_timespec and similar arguments.The temporary redirects for __kernel_timespec, __kernel_itimerspec
and __kernel_timex can get removed with this.It would be easy to split this commit by architecture, but with the new
generated system call tables, it's easy enough to do it all at once,
which makes it a little easier to check that the changes are the same
in each table.Acked-by: Geert Uytterhoeven

accidentally exported shmparam.h for microblaze.This commit unexports shmparam.h for those architectures.
There is no more reason to export include/uapi/asm-generic/shmparam.h,
so it has been moved to include/asm-generic/shmparam.hLink: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1546904307-11124-1-git-send-email-yamada.masahiro@socionext.com

The behavior of these system calls is slightly different between
architectures, as determined by the CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_IPC_PARSE_VERSION
symbol. Most architectures that implement the split IPC syscalls don't set
that symbol and only get the modern version, but alpha, arm, microblaze,
mips-n32, mips-n64 and xtensa expect the caller to pass the IPC_64 flag.For the architectures that so far only implement sys_ipc(), i.e. m68k,
mips-o32, powerpc, s390, sh, sparc, and x86-32, we want the new behavior
when adding the split syscalls, so we need to distinguish between the
two groups of architectures.The method I picked for this distinction is to have a separate system call
entry point: sys_old_*ctl() now uses ipc_parse_version, while sys_*ctl()
does not. The system call tables of the five architectures are changed
accordingly.As an additional benefit, we no longer need the configuration specific
definition for ipc_parse_version(), it always does the same thing now,
but simply won't get called on architectures with the modern interface.A small downside is that on architectures that do set
ARCH_WANT_IPC_PARSE_VERSION, we now have an extra set of entry points
that are never called. They only add a few bytes of bloat, so it seems
better to keep them compared to adding yet another Kconfig symbol.
I considered adding new syscall numbers for the IPC_64 variants for
consistency, but decided against that for now.Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

Patch series "Add support for fast mremap".
This series speeds up the mremap(2) syscall by copying page tables at
the PMD level even for non-THP systems. There is concern that the extra
'address' argument that mremap passes to pte_alloc may do something
subtle architecture related in the future that may make the scheme not
work. Also we find that there is no point in passing the 'address' to
pte_alloc since its unused. This patch therefore removes this argument
tree-wide resulting in a nice negative diff as well. Also ensuring
along the way that the enabled architectures do not do anything funky
with the 'address' argument that goes unnoticed by the optimization.Build and boot tested on x86-64. Build tested on arm64. The config
enablement patch for arm64 will be posted in the future after more
testing.The changes were obtained by applying the following Coccinelle script.
(thanks Julia for answering all Coccinelle questions!).
Following fix ups were done manually:
* Removal of address argument from pte_fragment_alloc
* Removal of pte_alloc_one_fast definitions from m68k and microblaze.// Options: --include-headers --no-includes

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.There were a couple of notable cases:
- csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.
- the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
really used it)- microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout
but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.
I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
