There are build issues in certain targets due to a recent change to the
section declarations (33def8498fdde180023444b08e12b72a9efed41d). Until
this is reconciled properly, revert to the older declaration style for a
few files.Signed-off-by: J. Avila

Use a more generic form for __section that requires quotes to avoid
complications with clang and gcc differences.Remove the quote operator # from compiler_attributes.h __section macro.
Convert all unquoted __section(foo) uses to quoted __section("foo").
Also convert __attribute__((section("foo"))) uses to __section("foo")
even if the __attribute__ has multiple list entry forms.Conversion done using the script at:

This seems like a dead artifact since TIF_IA32 is not even defined as a
TI flag for UM. Looking back in git history, it made sense in the old
days, but it is apparently not used since UM was split out of the x86
arch/. It is also going away from the x86 tree soon.Also, I think the variable clean up it performs is not needed as 64-bit
UML doesn't run 32-bit binaries as far as I can tell, and 32-bit UML
has 32-bit ulong.Signed-off-by: Gabriel Krisman Bertazi

All callers of these primitives will
* discard anything we might've copied in case of error
* ignore the csum value in case of error
* always pass 0xffffffff as the initial sum, so the
resulting csum value (in case of success, that is) will never be 0.That suggest the following calling conventions:
* don't pass err_ptr - just return 0 on error.
* don't bother with zeroing destination, etc. in case of error
* don't pass the initial sum - just use 0xffffffff.This commit does the minimal conversion in the instances of csum_and_copy_...();
the changes of actual asm code behind them are done later in the series.
Note that this asm code is often shared with csum_partial_copy_nocheck();
the difference is that csum_partial_copy_nocheck() passes 0 for initial
sum while csum_and_copy_..._user() pass 0xffffffff. Fortunately, we are
free to pass 0xffffffff in all cases and subsequent patches will use that
freedom without any special comments.A part that could be split off: parisc and uml/i386 claimed to have
csum_and_copy_to_user() instances of their own, but those were identical
to the generic one, so we simply drop them. Not sure if it's worth
a separate commit...Signed-off-by: Al Viro

quite a few architectures have the same csum_partial_copy_nocheck() -
simply memcpy() the data and then return the csum of the copy.hexagon, parisc, ia64, s390, um: explicitly spelled out that way.
arc, arm64, csky, h8300, m68k/nommu, microblaze, mips/GENERIC_CSUM, nds32,
nios2, openrisc, riscv, unicore32: end up picking the same thing spelled
out in lib/checksum.h (with varying amounts of perversions along the way).everybody else (alpha, arm, c6x, m68k/mmu, mips/!GENERIC_CSUM, powerpc,
sh, sparc, x86, xtensa) have non-generic variants. For all except c6x
the declaration is in their asm/checksum.h. c6x uses the wrapper
from asm-generic/checksum.h that would normally lead to the lib/checksum.h
instance, but in case of c6x we end up using an asm function from arch/c6x
instead.Screw that mess - have architectures with private instances define
_HAVE_ARCH_CSUM_AND_COPY in their asm/checksum.h and have the default
one right in net/checksum.h conditional on _HAVE_ARCH_CSUM_AND_COPY
*not* defined.Signed-off-by: Al Viro

Some Makefiles already pass -fno-stack-protector unconditionally.
For example, arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/Makefile, arch/x86/xen/Makefile.No problem report so far about hard-coding this option. So, we can
assume all supported compilers know -fno-stack-protector.GCC 4.8 and Clang support this option (https://godbolt.org/z/_HDGzN)
Get rid of cc-option from -fno-stack-protector.
Remove CONFIG_CC_HAS_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE, which is always 'y'.
Note:
arch/mips/vdso/Makefile adds -fno-stack-protector twice, first
unconditionally, and second conditionally. I removed the second one.Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

In time-travel mode, cpu_relax() currently does actual CPU relax,
but that doesn't affect the simulation. Ideally, we wouldn't run
anything that uses it in simulation, but if we actually have virtio
devices combined with the same simulation it's possible. Implement
cpu_relax() as ndelay(1) in this case, using time_travel_ndelay(1)
directly to catch errors if this is used erroneously in builds that
don't set CONFIG_UML_TIME_TRAVEL_SUPPORT.While at it, convert it to an __always_inline and also add that to
rep_nop() like the original does now.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

For the 32-bit syscall interface, 64-bit arguments (loff_t) are passed via
a pair of 32-bit registers. These register pairs end up in consecutive stack
slots, which matches the C ABI for 64-bit arguments. But when accessing the
registers directly from pt_regs, the wrapper needs to manually reassemble the
64-bit value. These wrappers already exist for 32-bit compat, so make them
available to 32-bit native in preparation for enabling pt_regs-based syscalls.Signed-off-by: Brian Gerst

Most of the Kconfig commands (except defconfig and all*config) read
the .config file as a base set of CONFIG options.When it does not exist, the files in DEFCONFIG_LIST are searched in
this order and loaded if found.I do not see much sense in the last two lines in DEFCONFIG_LIST.
[1] ARCH_DEFCONFIG
The entry for DEFCONFIG_LIST is guarded by 'depends on !UML'. So, the
ARCH_DEFCONFIG definition in arch/x86/um/Kconfig is meaningless.arch/{sh,sparc,x86}/Kconfig define ARCH_DEFCONFIG depending on 32 or
64 bit variant symbols. This is a little bit strange; ARCH_DEFCONFIG
should be a fixed string because the base config file is loaded before
the symbol evaluation stage.Using KBUILD_DEFCONFIG makes more sense because it is fixed before
Kconfig is invoked. Fortunately, arch/{sh,sparc,x86}/Makefile define it
in the same way, and it works as expected. Hence, replace ARCH_DEFCONFIG
with "arch/$(SRCARCH)/configs/$(KBUILD_DEFCONFIG)".[2] arch/$(ARCH)/defconfig
This file path is no longer valid. The defconfig files are always located
in the arch configs/ directories.$ find arch -name defconfig | sort
arch/alpha/configs/defconfig
arch/arm64/configs/defconfig
arch/csky/configs/defconfig
arch/nds32/configs/defconfig
arch/riscv/configs/defconfig
arch/s390/configs/defconfig
arch/unicore32/configs/defconfigThe path arch/*/configs/defconfig is already covered by
"arch/$(SRCARCH)/configs/$(KBUILD_DEFCONFIG)". So, this file path is
not necessary.I moved the default KBUILD_DEFCONFIG to the top Makefile. Otherwise,
the 7 architectures listed above would end up with endless loop of
syncconfig.Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

In order to remove 'timespec' completely from the kernel, all
internal uses should be converted to a y2038-safe type, while
those that are only for compatibity with existing user space
should be marked appropriately.Change vdso to use __kernel_old_timespec in order to avoid
the deprecated type and mark these interfaces as outdated.Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann
-
The gettimeofday() function in vdso uses the traditional 'timeval'
structure layout, which will be incompatible with future versions of
glibc on 32-bit architectures that use a 64-bit time_t.This interface is problematic for y2038, when time_t overflows on 32-bit
architectures, but the plan so far is that a libc with 64-bit time_t
will not call into the gettimeofday() vdso helper at all, and only
have a method for entering clock_gettime(). This means we don't have
to fix it here, though we probably want to add a new clock_gettime()
entry point using a 64-bit version of 'struct timespec' at some point.Changing the vdso code to use __kernel_old_timeval helps isolate
this usage from the other ones that still need to be fixed properly,
and it gets us closer to removing the 'timeval' definition from the
kernel sources.Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner

Pull force_sig() argument change from Eric Biederman:
"A source of error over the years has been that force_sig has taken a
task parameter when it is only safe to use force_sig with the current
task.The force_sig function is built for delivering synchronous signals
such as SIGSEGV where the userspace application caused a synchronous
fault (such as a page fault) and the kernel responded with a signal.Because the name force_sig does not make this clear, and because the
force_sig takes a task parameter the function force_sig has been
abused for sending other kinds of signals over the years. Slowly those
have been fixed when the oopses have been tracked down.This set of changes fixes the remaining abusers of force_sig and
carefully rips out the task parameter from force_sig and friends

All of the remaining callers pass current into force_sig so
remove the task parameter to make this obvious and to make
misuse more difficult in the future.This also makes it clear force_sig passes current into force_sig_info.

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
"We've got a reasonably broad set of audit patches for the v5.2 merge
window, the highlights are below:- The biggest change, and the source of all the arch/* changes, is
the patchset from Dmitry to help enable some of the work he is
doing around PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO.To be honest, including this in the audit tree is a bit of a
stretch, but it does help move audit a little further along towards
proper syscall auditing for all arches, and everyone else seemed to
agree that audit was a "good" spot for this to land (or maybe they
just didn't want to merge it? dunno.).- We can now audit time/NTP adjustments.

Towards the goal of removing cc-ldoption, it seems that --hash-style=
was added to binutils 2.17.50.0.2 in 2006. The minimal required version
of binutils for the kernel according to
Documentation/process/changes.rst is 2.20.Suggested-by: Masahiro Yamada

Currently, we have two different implementation of rwsem:
1) CONFIG_RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK (rwsem-spinlock.c)
2) CONFIG_RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM (rwsem-xadd.c)As we are going to use a single generic implementation for rwsem-xadd.c
and no architecture-specific code will be needed, there is no point
in keeping two different implementations of rwsem. In most cases, the
performance of rwsem-spinlock.c will be worse. It also doesn't get all
the performance tuning and optimizations that had been implemented in
rwsem-xadd.c over the years.For simplication, we are going to remove rwsem-spinlock.c and make all
architectures use a single implementation of rwsem - rwsem-xadd.c.All references to RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK and RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM
in the code are removed.Suggested-by: Peter Zijlstra

As the generic rwsem-xadd code is using the appropriate acquire and
release versions of the atomic operations, the arch specific rwsem.h
files will not be that much faster than the generic code as long as the
atomic functions are properly implemented. So we can remove those arch
specific rwsem.h and stop building asm/rwsem.h to reduce maintenance
effort.Currently, only x86, alpha and ia64 have implemented architecture
specific fast paths. I don't have access to alpha and ia64 systems for
testing, but they are legacy systems that are not likely to be updated
to the latest kernel anyway.By using a rwsem microbenchmark, the total locking rates on a 4-socket
56-core 112-thread x86-64 system before and after the patch were as
follows (mixed means equal # of read and write locks):Before Patch After Patch
# of Threads wlock rlock mixed wlock rlock mixed

x86-64, using the generic C code fast path seems to be a little bit
faster than the assembly version with low lock contention. Looking at
the assembly version of the fast paths, there are assembly to/from C
code wrappers that save and restore all the callee-clobbered registers
(7 registers on x86-64). The assembly generated from the generic C
code doesn't need to do that. That may explain the slight performance
gain here.The generic asm rwsem.h can also be merged into kernel/locking/rwsem.h
with no code change as no other code other than those under
kernel/locking needs to access the internal rwsem macros and functions.Signed-off-by: Waiman Long

This argument is required to extend the generic ptrace API with
PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO request: syscall_get_arch() is going
to be called from ptrace_request() along with syscall_get_nr(),
syscall_get_arguments(), syscall_get_error(), and
syscall_get_return_value() functions with a tracee as their argument.The primary intent is that the triple (audit_arch, syscall_nr, arg1..arg6)
should describe what system call is being called and what its arguments
are.Reverts: 5e937a9ae913 ("syscall_get_arch: remove useless function arguments")
