Pull KVM update from Paolo Bonzini:
"3.19 changes for KVM:- spring cleaning: removed support for IA64, and for hardware-
assisted virtualization on the PPC970- ARM, PPC, s390 all had only small fixes
For x86:
- small performance improvements (though only on weird guests)
- usual round of hardware-compliancy fixes from Nadav
- APICv fixes
- XSAVES support for hosts and guests. XSAVES hosts were broken
because the (non-KVM) XSAVES patches inadvertently changed the KVM
userspace ABI whenever XSAVES was enabled; hence, this part is
going to stable. Guest support is just a matter of exposing the
feature and CPUID leaves support"* tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (179 commits)

Pull user namespace related fixes from Eric Biederman:
"As these are bug fixes almost all of thes changes are marked for
backporting to stable.The first change (implicitly adding MNT_NODEV on remount) addresses a
regression that was created when security issues with unprivileged
remount were closed. I go on to update the remount test to make it
easy to detect if this issue reoccurs.Then there are a handful of mount and umount related fixes.
Then half of the changes deal with the a recently discovered design
bug in the permission checks of gid_map. Unix since the beginning has
allowed setting group permissions on files to less than the user and
other permissions (aka ---rwx---rwx). As the unix permission checks
stop as soon as a group matches, and setgroups allows setting groups
that can not later be dropped, results in a situtation where it is
possible to legitimately use a group to assign fewer privileges to a
process. Which means dropping a group can increase a processes
privileges.The fix I have adopted is that gid_map is now no longer writable
without privilege unless the new file /proc/self/setgroups has been
set to permanently disable setgroups.The bulk of user namespace using applications even the applications
using applications using user namespaces without privilege remain
unaffected by this change. Unfortunately this ix breaks a couple user
space applications, that were relying on the problematic behavior (one
of which was tools/selftests/mount/unprivileged-remount-test.c).To hopefully prevent needing a regression fix on top of my security
fix I rounded folks who work with the container implementations mostly
like to be affected and encouraged them to test the changes.> So far nothing broke on my libvirt-lxc test bed. :-)

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

This patch is meant to cleanup the handling of read_barrier_depends and
smp_read_barrier_depends. In multiple spots in the kernel headers
read_barrier_depends is defined as "do {} while (0)", however we then go
into the SMP vs non-SMP sections and have the SMP version reference
read_barrier_depends, and the non-SMP define it as yet another empty
do/while.With this commit I went through and cleaned out the duplicate definitions
and reduced the number of definitions down to 2 per header. In addition I
moved the 50 line comments for the macro from the x86 and mips headers that
defined it as an empty do/while to those that were actually defining the
macro, alpha and blackfin.Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck

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.

Getting that completed will make life much simpler for
unionmount/overlayfs, since then we'll be able to limit the places

file_inode(file) pointing to inode in a covered layer, with dentry
pointing to (negative) dentry in union one.Still not complete, but much closer now.

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

Pull asm-generic asm/io.h rewrite from Arnd Bergmann:
"While there normally is no reason to have a pull request for
asm-generic but have all changes get merged through whichever tree
needs them, I do have a series for 3.19.There are two sets of patches that change significant portions of
asm/io.h, and this branch contains both in order to resolve the
conflicts:- Will Deacon has done a set of patches to ensure that all
architectures define {read,write}{b,w,l,q}_relaxed() functions or
get them by including asm-generic/io.h.These functions are commonly used on ARM specific drivers to avoid
expensive L2 cache synchronization implied by the normal
{read,write}{b,w,l,q}, but we need to define them on all
architectures in order to share the drivers across architectures
and to enable CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST configurations for them- Thierry Reding has done an unrelated set of patches that extends
the asm-generic/io.h file to the degree necessary to make it useful
on ARM64 and potentially other architectures"* tag 'asm-generic-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic: (29 commits)

git commit 8461b63ca01d125a245a0d0fb4821ea0656e5053
"s390: translate cputime magic constants to macros"
introduce a built error for 31-bit:kernel/built-in.o: In function `posix_cpu_timer_set':
posix-cpu-timers.c:(.text+0x2a8cc): undefined reference to `__udivdi3'The original code is actually broken for 31-bit and has been
corrected by the above commit by forcing the compiler to use
64-bit arithmetic through the CPUTIME_PER_USEC define.To fix the compile error replace the 64-bit division with
a call to __div().Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

On machines with support for vector registers the signal frame includes
an area for the vector registers and the ptrace regset interface allow
read and write. This is true even if the task never used any vector
instruction. Only elf core dumps do not include the vector registers,
to make things consistent always include the vector register note in
core dumps create on a machine with vector register support.Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

The copy_thread function fails to reset the p->thread.vxrs pointer.
This causes the child to use the same vector register save area,
causing both data corruptions and multiple frees of the memory for
the save area after the tasks sharing the save area terminate.Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

debug_sprintf_event/exception are called even for debug events
with a disabling debug level. All other functions already do
the check in a wrapper function. Lets do the same here.
Due to the var_args the compiler rejects to make this function
inline. So let's wrap this via a macro.
This patch saves around 80 ns on my z196 for a KVM round trip (we
have two debug statements for entry and exit) when KVM is build as
a module.
The savings for built-in drivers is smaller as we then avoid the
PLT overhead for a function call.Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger

introduce new setsockopt() command:
setsockopt(sock, SOL_SOCKET, SO_ATTACH_BPF, &prog_fd, sizeof(prog_fd))
where prog_fd was received from syscall bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD, attr, ...)
and attr->prog_type == BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCKET_FILTERsetsockopt() calls bpf_prog_get() which increments refcnt of the program,
so it doesn't get unloaded while socket is using the program.The same eBPF program can be attached to multiple sockets.
User task exit automatically closes socket which calls sk_filter_uncharge()
which decrements refcnt of eBPF programSigned-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov

Today there are 3 instances of setgroups and due to an oversight their
permission checking has diverged. Add a common function so that
they may all share the same permission checking code.This corrects the current oversight in the current permission checks
and adds a helper to avoid this in the future.A user namespace security fix will update this new helper, shortly.

Currently we use a mixture of atomic/non-atomic bitops
and the local_int spin lock to protect the pending_irqs bitmap
and interrupt payload data.We need to use atomic bitops for the pending_irqs bitmap everywhere
and in addition acquire the local_int lock where interrupt data needs
to be protected.Signed-off-by: Jens Freimann

The cpu address of a source cpu (responsible for an external irq) is only to
be stored if bit 6 of the ext irq code is set.If bit 6 is not set, it is to be zeroed out.
The special external irq code used for virtio and pfault uses the cpu addr as a
parameter field. As bit 6 is set, this implementation is correct.Reviewed-by: Thomas Huth

When we generate the instruction for out of line execution the length
of the to be copied instruction was evaluated from a not initialized
memory location.
Therefore we ended up with a random (2, 4 or 6) number of bytes being
copied instead of taking the real instruction length into account.
This works surprisingly well most of the time, but still not always.Reported-by: Ursula Braun

This patch adapts handling of local interrupts to be more compliant with
the z/Architecture Principles of Operation and introduces a data
structure
which allows more efficient handling of interrupts.* get rid of li->active flag, use bitmap instead
* Keep interrupts in a bitmap instead of a list
* Deliver interrupts in the order of their priority as defined in the
PoP
* Use a second bitmap for sigp emergency requests, as a CPU can have
one request pending from every other CPU in the system.Signed-off-by: Jens Freimann
