Commit 3cc2dac5be3f ("drivers/video/fbdev/atyfb: Replace MTRR UC hole
with strong UC") introduces calls to ioremap_wc and ioremap_uc. This
causes build failures with parisc:allmodconfig. Map the missing
functions to ioremap_nocache.

Commit 0e0da48dee8d ("parisc: mm: don't count preallocated pmds")
introduced a memory leak.
After this commit, the 'return' statement in pmd_free is executed in all
cases. Even for pmd that are not attached to the pgd. So 'free_pages'
can never be called anymore, leading to a memory leak.

Commit 2ae416b142b6 ("mm: new mm hook framework") introduced an empty
header file (mm-arch-hooks.h) for every architecture, even those which
doesn't need to define mm hooks.
As suggested by Geert Uytterhoeven, this could be cleaned through the use
of a generic header file included via each per architecture
asm/include/Kbuild file.
The PowerPC architecture is not impacted here since this architecture has
to defined the arch_remap MM hook.

based on timing results
The increased use of pdtlb/pitlb instructions seemed to increase the
frequency of random segmentation faults building packages. Further, we
had a number of cases where TLB inserts would repeatedly fail and all
forward progress would stop. The Haskell ghc package caused a lot of
trouble in this area. The final indication of a race in pte handling was
this syslog entry on sibaris (C8000):
swap_free: Unused swap offset entry 00000004
BUG: Bad page map in process mysqld pte:00000100 pmd:019bbec5

[<00000000402ba2a4>] SyS_madvise+0x404/0x8c0
Note that the pte value is 0 except for the accessed bit 0x100. This bit
shouldn't be set without the present bit.
It should be noted that the madvise system call is probably a trigger for many
of the random segmentation faults.
In looking at the kernel code, I found the following problems:
1) The pte_clear define didn't take TLB lock when clearing a pte.
2) We didn't test pte present bit inside lock in exception support.
3) The pte and tlb locks needed to merged in order to ensure consistency
between page table and TLB. This also has the effect of serializing TLB
broadcasts on SMP systems.
The attached change implements the above and a few other tweaks to try
to improve performance. Based on the timing code, TLB purges are very
slow (e.g., ~ 209 cycles per page on rp3440). Thus, I think it
beneficial to test the split_tlb variable to avoid duplicate purges.
Probably, all PA 2.0 machines have combined TLBs.
I dropped using __flush_tlb_range in flush_tlb_mm as I realized all
applications and most threads have a stack size that is too large to
make this useful. I added some comments to this effect.
Since implementing 1 through 3, I haven't had any random segmentation
faults on mx3210 (rp3440) in about one week of building code and running
as a Debian buildd.

CRIU is recreating the process memory layout by remapping the checkpointee
memory area on top of the current process (criu). This includes remapping
the vDSO to the place it has at checkpoint time.
However some architectures like powerpc are keeping a reference to the
vDSO base address to build the signal return stack frame by calling the
vDSO sigreturn service. So once the vDSO has been moved, this reference
is no more valid and the signal frame built later are not usable.
This patch serie is introducing a new mm hook framework, and a new
arch_remap hook which is called when mremap is done and the mm lock still
hold. The next patch is adding the vDSO remap and unmap tracking to the
powerpc architecture.
This patch (of 3):
This patch introduces a new set of header file to manage mm hooks:
- per architecture empty header file (arch/x/include/asm/mm-arch-hooks.h)
- a generic header (include/linux/mm-arch-hooks.h)
The architecture which need to overwrite a hook as to redefine it in its
header file, while architecture which doesn't need have nothing to do.
The default hooks are defined in the generic header and are used in the
case the architecture is not defining it.
In a next step, mm hooks defined in include/asm-generic/mm_hooks.h should
be moved here.

architectures
On architectures where the stack grows upwards (CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP=y,
currently parisc and metag only) stack randomization sometimes leads to crashes
when the stack ulimit is set to lower values than STACK_RND_MASK (which is 8 MB
by default if not defined in arch-specific headers).
The problem is, that when the stack vm_area_struct is set up in fs/exec.c, the
additional space needed for the stack randomization (as defined by the value of
STACK_RND_MASK) was not taken into account yet and as such, when the stack
randomization code added a random offset to the stack start, the stack
effectively got smaller than what the user defined via rlimit_max(RLIMIT_STACK)
which then sometimes leads to out-of-stack situations and crashes.
This patch fixes it by adding the maximum possible amount of memory (based on
STACK_RND_MASK) which theoretically could be added by the stack randomization
code to the initial stack size. That way, the user-defined stack size is always
guaranteed to be at minimum what is defined via rlimit_max(RLIMIT_STACK).
This bug is currently not visible on the metag architecture, because on metag
STACK_RND_MASK is defined to 0 which effectively disables stack randomization.
The changes to fs/exec.c are inside an "#ifdef CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP"
section, so it does not affect other platformws beside those where the
stack grows upwards (parisc and metag).

The patch dc6c9a35b66b520cf67e05d8ca60ebecad3b0479 that counts pmds
allocated for a process introduced a bug on 64-bit PA-RISC kernels.
The PA-RISC architecture preallocates one pmd with each pgd. This
preallocated pmd can never be freed - pmd_free does nothing when it is
called with this pmd. When the kernel attempts to free this preallocated
pmd, it decreases the count of allocated pmds. The result is that the
counter underflows and this error is reported.
This patch fixes the bug by artifically incrementing the counter in
pmd_free when the kernel tries to free the preallocated pmd.

Core mm expects __PAGETABLE_{PUD,PMD}_FOLDED to be defined if these page
table levels folded. Usually, these defines are provided by
<asm-generic/pgtable-nopmd.h> and <asm-generic/pgtable-nopud.h>.
But some architectures fold page table levels in a custom way. They
need to define these macros themself. This patch adds missing defines.
The patch fixes mm->nr_pmds underflow and eliminates dead __pmd_alloc()
and __pud_alloc() on architectures without these page table levels.

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.
Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.
Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.
It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

The code:

In this, on tile, we have FIRST_USER_ADDRESS defined as 0. round_up() has
the same type -- int. PUD_SHIFT.
I think the best way to fix it is to define FIRST_USER_ADDRESS as unsigned
long. On every arch for consistency.

The __ldcw macro has a problem when its argument needs to be reloaded from
memory. The output memory operand and the input register operand both need to
be reloaded using a register in class R1_REGS when generating 64-bit code.
This fails because there's only a single register in the class. Instead, use a
memory clobber. This also makes the __ldcw macro a compiler memory barrier.

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"

introduce new setsockopt() command:

where prog_fd was received from syscall bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD, attr, ...)
and attr->prog_type == BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCKET_FILTER
setsockopt() 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 program

Alternative to RPS/RFS is to use hardware support for multiple
queues.
Then split a set of million of sockets into worker threads, each
one using epoll() to manage events on its own socket pool.
Ideally, we want one thread per RX/TX queue/cpu, but we have no way to
know after accept() or connect() on which queue/cpu a socket is managed.
We normally use one cpu per RX queue (IRQ smp_affinity being properly
set), so remembering on socket structure which cpu delivered last packet
is enough to solve the problem.
After accept(), connect(), or even file descriptor passing around
processes, applications can use :
int cpu;
socklen_t len = sizeof(cpu);
getsockopt(fd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_INCOMING_CPU, &cpu, &len);
And use this information to put the socket into the right silo
for optimal performance, as all networking stack should run
on the appropriate cpu, without need to send IPI (RPS/RFS).

Switch over the msgctl, shmat, shmctl and semtimedop syscalls to use the compat
layer. The problem was found with the debian procenv package, which called
shmctl(0, SHM_INFO, &info);
in which the shmctl syscall then overwrote parts of the surrounding areas on
the stack on which the info variable was stored and thus lead to a segfault
later on.
Additionally fix the definition of struct shminfo64 to use unsigned longs like
the other architectures. This has no impact on userspace since we only have a
32bit userspace up to now.

Pull audit updates from Eric Paris:
"So this change across a whole bunch of arches really solves one basic
problem. We want to audit when seccomp is killing a process. seccomp
hooks in before the audit syscall entry code. audit_syscall_entry
took as an argument the arch of the given syscall. Since the arch is
part of what makes a syscall number meaningful it's an important part
of the record, but it isn't available when seccomp shoots the
syscall...
For most arch's we have a better way to get the arch (syscall_get_arch)
So the solution was two fold: Implement syscall_get_arch() everywhere
there is audit which didn't have it. Use syscall_get_arch() in the
seccomp audit code. Having syscall_get_arch() everywhere meant it was
a useless flag on the stack and we could get rid of it for the typical
syscall entry.
The other changes inside the audit system aren't grand, fixed some
records that had invalid spaces. Better locking around the task comm
field. Removing some dead functions and structs. Make some things
static. Really minor stuff"

This patch reduces the value of SIGRTMIN on PARISC from 37 to 32, thus
increasing the number of available RT signals and bring it in sync with other
Linux architectures.
Historically we wanted to natively support HP-UX 32bit binaries with the
PA-RISC Linux port. Because of that we carried the various available signals
from HP-UX (e.g. SIGEMT and SIGLOST) and folded them in between the native
Linux signals. Although this was the right decision at that time, this
required us to increase SIGRTMIN to at least 37 which left us with 27 (64-37)
RT signals.
Those 27 RT signals haven't been a problem in the past, but with the upcoming
importance of systemd we now got the problem that systemd alloctes (hardcoded)
signals up to SIGRTMIN+29 which is beyond our NSIG of 64. Because of that we
have not been able to use systemd on the PARISC Linux port yet.
Of course we could ask the systemd developers to not use those hardcoded
values, but this change is very unlikely, esp. with PA-RISC being a niche
architecture.
The other possibility would be to increase NSIG to e.g. 128, but this would
mean to duplicate most of the existing Linux signal handling code into the
parisc specific Linux kernel tree which would most likely introduce lots of new
bugs beside the code duplication.
The third option is to drop some HP-UX signals and shuffle some other signals
around to bring SIGRTMIN to 32. This is of course an ABI change, but testing
has shown that existing Linux installations are not visibly affected by this
change - most likely because we move those signals around which are rarely used
and move them to slots which haven't been used in Linux yet. In an existing
installation I was able to exchange either the Linux kernel or glibc (or both)
without affecting the boot process and installed applications.
Dropping the HP-UX signals isn't an issue either, since support for HP-UX was
basically dropped a few months back with Kernel 3.14 in commit
f5a408d53edef3af07ac7697b8bc54a755628450 already, when we changed EWOULDBLOCK
to be equal to EAGAIN.
So, even if this is an ABI change, it's better to change it now and thus bring
PARISC Linux in sync with other architectures to avoid other issues in the
future.
