refcount_t type and corresponding API should be
used instead of atomic_t when the variable is used as
a reference counter. This allows to avoid accidental

Regularly, when a new header is created in include/uapi/, the developer
forgets to add it in the corresponding Kbuild file. This error is usually
detected after the release is out.In fact, all headers under uapi directories should be exported, thus it's
useless to have an exhaustive list.After this patch, the following files, which were not exported, are now
exported (with make headers_install_all):

The perf tool assumes that kernel symbols are never present at address
zero. In fact it assumes if functions that map symbols to addresses
return zero, that the symbol was not found.Given that s390's _text symbol historically is located at address zero
this yields at least a couple of false errors and warnings in one of
perf's test cases about not present symbols ("perf test 1").To fix this simply move the _text symbol to address 0x200, just behind
the initial psw and channel program located at the beginning of the
kernel image. This is now hard coded within the linker script.I tried a nicer solution which moves the initial psw and channel
program into an own section. However that would move the symbols
within the "real" head.text section to different addresses, since the
".org" statements within head.S are relative to the head.text
section. If there is a new section in front, everything else will be
moved. Alternatively I could have adjusted all ".org" statements. But
this current solution seems to be the easiest one, since nobody really
cares where the _text symbol is actually located.Reported-by: Zvonko Kosic

The average string that is copied from user space to kernel space is
rather short. E.g. booting a system involves about 50.000
strncpy_from_user() calls where the NULL terminated string has an
average size of 27 bytes.By default our s390 specific strncpy_from_user() implementation
however copies up to 4096 bytes, which is a waste of cpu cycles and
cache lines. Therefore reduce the default length to L1_CACHE_BYTES
(256 bytes), which also reduces the average execution time of
strncpy_from_user() by 30-40%.Alternatively we could have switched to the generic
strncpy_from_user() implementation, however it turned out that that
variant would be slower than the now optimized s390 variant.Reported-by: Al Viro

Patch series "set_memory_* functions header refactor", v3.
The set_memory_* APIs came out of a desire to have a better way to
change memory attributes. Many of these attributes were linked to cache
functionality so the prototypes were put in cacheflush.h. These days,
the APIs have grown and have a much wider use than just cache APIs. To
support this growth, split off set_memory_* and friends into a separate
header file to avoid growing cacheflush.h for APIs that have nothing to
do with caches.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1488920133-27229-2-git-send-email-labbott@redhat.com

Bit searching functions accept "unsigned long" indices but
"nr_cpumask_bits" is "int" which is signed, so inevitable sign
extensions occur on x86_64. Those MOVSX are #1 MOVSX bloat by number of
uses across whole kernel.Change "nr_cpumask_bits" to unsigned, this number can't be negative
after all. It allows to do implicit zero-extension on x86_64 without
MOVSX.Change signed comparisons into unsigned comparisons where necessary.
Other uses looks fine because it is either argument passed to a function
or comparison is already unsigned.Net win on allyesconfig type of kernel: ~2.8 KB (!)

cleanup of the .Lsysc_restore/.Lsysc_done and .Lio_restore/.Lio_done
blocks. If the PSW is updated by the critical section cleanup to point to
user space again, the interrupt entry code will do a vtime calculation
after the cleanup completed with an exit_timer value which has *not* been
updated. Due to this incorrect system time deltas are calculated.If an interrupt occured with an old PSW between .Lsysc_restore/.Lsysc_done
or .Lio_restore/.Lio_done update __LC_EXIT_TIMER with the system entry

Pull livepatch updates from Jiri Kosina:
- a per-task consistency model is being added for architectures that
support reliable stack dumping (extending this, currently rather
trivial set, is currently in the works).This extends the nature of the types of patches that can be applied
by live patching infrastructure. The code stems from the design
proposal made [1] back in November 2014. It's a hybrid of SUSE's
kGraft and RH's kpatch, combining advantages of both: it uses
kGraft's per-task consistency and syscall barrier switching combined
with kpatch's stack trace switching. There are also a number of
fallback options which make it quite flexible.Most of the heavy lifting done by Josh Poimboeuf with help from

Pull uaccess unification updates from Al Viro:
"This is the uaccess unification pile. It's _not_ the end of uaccess
work, but the next batch of that will go into the next cycle. This one
mostly takes copy_from_user() and friends out of arch/* and gets the
zero-padding behaviour in sync for all architectures.Dealing with the nocache/writethrough mess is for the next cycle;
fortunately, that's x86-only. Same for cleanups in iov_iter.c (I am
sold on access_ok() in there, BTW; just not in this pile), same for
reducing __copy_... callsites, strn*... stuff, etc. - there will be a
pile about as large as this one in the next merge window.This one sat in -next for weeks. -3KLoC"

Users were expected to use kvm_check_request() for testing and clearing,
but request have expanded their use since then and some users want to
only test or do a faster clear.Make sure that requests are not directly accessed with bit operations.

This patch introduces s390 specific arch random functionality.
There exists a generic kernel API for arch specific random
number implementation (see include/linux/random.h). Here
comes the header file and a very small static code part
implementing the arch_random_* API based on the TRNG
subfunction coming with the reworked PRNG instruction.The arch random implementation hooks into the kernel
initialization and checks for availability of the TRNG
function. In accordance to the arch random API all functions
return false if the TRNG is not available. Otherwise the new
high quality entropy source provides fresh random on each
invocation.The s390 arch random feature build is controlled via
CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM. This config option located in
arch/s390/Kconfig is enabled by default and appears
as entry "s390 architectural random number generation API"
in the submenu "Processor type and features" for s390 builds.Signed-off-by: Harald Freudenberger

The PPNO (Perform Pseudorandom Number Operation) instruction
has been renamed to PRNO (Perform Random Number Operation).
To avoid confusion and conflicts with future extensions with
this instruction (like e.g. provide a true random number
generator) this patch renames all occurences in cpacf.h and
adjusts the only exploiter code which is the prng device
driver and one line in the s390 kvm feature check.Signed-off-by: Harald Freudenberger

The kernel page table splitting code will split page tables even for
features the CPU does not support. E.g. a CPU may not support the NX
feature.
In order to avoid this, remove those bits from the flags parameter
that correlate with unsupported CPU features within __set_memory(). In
addition add an early exit if the flags parameter does not have any
bits set afterwards.Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens

With TASK_SIZE now reflecting the maximum size of the address space for
a process the code for arch_get_unmapped_area[_topdown] can be simplified.
Just let the logic pick a suitable address and deal with the page table
upgrade after the address has been selected.Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

The TASK_SIZE for a process should be maximum possible size of the address
space, 2GB for a 31-bit process and 8PB for a 64-bit process. The number
of page table levels required for a given memory layout is a consequence
of the mapped memory areas and their location.Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky
