Add a CONFIG_SET_FS option that is selected by architecturess that
implement set_fs, which is all of them initially. If the option is not
set stubs for routines related to overriding the address space are
provided so that architectures can start to opt out of providing set_fs.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

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

For the architectures that do not implement their own tlb_flush() but
do already use the generic mmu_gather, there are two options:1) the platform has an efficient flush_tlb_range() and
asm-generic/tlb.h doesn't need any overrides at all.2) the platform lacks an efficient flush_tlb_range() and
we select MMU_GATHER_NO_RANGE to minimize full invalidates.Convert all 'simple' architectures to one of these two forms.
alpha: has no range invalidate -> 2
arc: already used flush_tlb_range() -> 1
c6x: has no range invalidate -> 2
hexagon: has an efficient flush_tlb_range() -> 1
(flush_tlb_mm() is in fact a full range invalidate,
so no need to shoot down everything)
m68k: has inefficient flush_tlb_range() -> 2
microblaze: has no flush_tlb_range() -> 2
mips: has efficient flush_tlb_range() -> 1
(even though it currently seems to use flush_tlb_mm())
nds32: already uses flush_tlb_range() -> 1
nios2: has inefficient flush_tlb_range() -> 2
(no limit on range iteration)
openrisc: has inefficient flush_tlb_range() -> 2
(no limit on range iteration)
parisc: already uses flush_tlb_range() -> 1
sparc32: already uses flush_tlb_range() -> 1
unicore32: has inefficient flush_tlb_range() -> 2
(no limit on range iteration)
xtensa: has efficient flush_tlb_range() -> 1Note this also fixes a bug in the existing code for a number
platforms. Those platforms that did:tlb_end_vma() -> if (!full_mm) flush_tlb_*()
tlb_flush -> if (full_mm) flush_tlb_mm()missed the case of shift_arg_pages(), which doesn't have @fullmm set,
nor calls into tlb_*vma(), but still frees page-tables and thus needs
an invalidate. The new code handles this by detecting a non-empty
range, and either issuing the matching range invalidate or a full
invalidate, depending on the capabilities.No change in behavior intended.

All architectures except for sparc64 use the dma-direct code in some
form, and even for sparc64 we had the discussion of a direct mapping
mode a while ago. In preparation for directly calling the direct
mapping code don't bother having it optionally but always build the
code in. This is a minor hardship for some powerpc and arm configs
that don't pull it in yet (although they should in a relase ot two),
and sparc64 which currently doesn't need it at all, but it will
reduce the ifdef mess we'd otherwise need significantly.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

Replace bootmem allocator with memblock and enable use of NO_BOOTMEM like
on most other architectures.Alpha gets the description of the physical memory from the firmware as an
array of memory clusters. Each cluster that is not reserved by the
firmware is added to memblock.memory.Once the memblock.memory is set up, we reserve the kernel and initrd pages
with memblock reserve.Since we don't need the bootmem bitmap anymore, the code that finds an
appropriate place is removed.The conversion does not take care of NUMA support which is marked broken
for more than 10 years now.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1535952894-10967-1-git-send-email-rppt@linux.vnet.ibm.com

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

Implement the CPU vulnerabilty show functions for meltdown, spectre_v1
and spectre_v2 on Alpha.Tests on XP1000 (EV67/667MHz) and ES45 (EV68CB/1.25GHz) show them
to be vulnerable to Meltdown and Spectre V1. In the case of
Meltdown I saw a 1 to 2% success rate in reading bytes on the
XP1000 and 50 to 60% success rate on the ES45. (This compares to
99.97% success reported for Intel CPUs.) Report EV6 and later
CPUs as vulnerable.Tests on PWS600au (EV56/600MHz) for Spectre V1 attack were
unsuccessful (though I did not try particularly hard) so mark EV4
through to EV56 as not vulnerable.Signed-off-by: Michael Cree

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if
