MIPS: Drop spurious __unused in struct compat_flock

2018-02-28T09:21:32Z

commit 6ae1756faddefd7494353380ee546dd38c2f97eb upstream. MIPS' struct compat_flock doesn't match the 32-bit struct flock, as it has an extra short __unused before pad[4], which combined with alignment increases the size to 40 bytes compared with struct flock's 36 bytes. Since commit 8c6657cb50cb ("Switch flock copyin/copyout primitives to copy_{from,to}_user()"), put_compat_flock() writes the full compat_flock struct to userland, which results in corruption of the userland word after the struct flock when running 32-bit userlands on 64-bit kernels. This was observed to cause a bus error exception when starting Firefox on Debian 8 (Jessie).

bpf: correct broken uapi for BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT program type

2017-12-05T14:02:40Z

Commit 0515e5999a466dfe ("bpf: introduce BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT program type") introduced the bpf_perf_event_data structure which exports the pt_regs structure. This is OK for multiple architectures but fail for s390 and arm64 which do not export pt_regs. Programs using them, for example, the bpf selftest fail to compile on these architectures. For s390, exporting the pt_regs is not an option because s390 wants to allow changes to it. For arm64, there is a user_pt_regs structure that covers parts of the pt_regs structure for use by user space. To solve the broken uapi for s390 and arm64, introduce an abstract type for pt_regs and add an asm/bpf_perf_event.h file that concretes the type. An asm-generic header file covers the architectures that export pt_regs today. The arch-specific enablement for s390 and arm64 follows in separate commits.

mm: switch to 'define pmd_write' instead of __HAVE_ARCH_PMD_WRITE

2017-11-30T02:40:42Z

In response to compile breakage introduced by a series that added the pud_write helper to x86, Stephen notes: did you consider using the other paradigm: In arch include files: #define pud_write pud_write static inline int pud_write(pud_t pud) ..... Then in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h: #ifndef pud_write tatic inline int pud_write(pud_t pud) { .... } #endif If you had, then the powerpc code would have worked ... ;-) and many of the other interfaces in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h are protected that way ... Given that some architecture already define pmd_write() as a macro, it's a net reduction to drop the definition of __HAVE_ARCH_PMD_WRITE.

MIPS: Add custom serial.h with BASE_BAUD override for generic kernel

2017-11-28T15:53:24Z

Add a custom serial.h header for MIPS, allowing platforms to override the asm-generic version if required. The generic platform uses this header to set BASE_BAUD to 0. The generic platform supports multiple boards, which may have different UART clocks. Also one of the boards supported is the Boston FPGA board, where the UART clock depends on the loaded FPGA bitfile. As such there is no way that the generic kernel can set a compile time default BASE_BAUD. Commit 31cb9a8575ca ("earlycon: initialise baud field of earlycon device structure") changed the behavior of of_setup_earlycon such that any baud rate set in the device tree is now set in the earlycon structure. The UART driver will then calculate a divisor based on BASE_BAUD and set it. With MIPS generic kernels this resulted in garbage output due to the incorrect uart clock rate being used to calculate a divisor. This commit, combined with "serial: 8250_early: Only set divisor if valid clk & baud" prevents the earlycon code setting a bad divisor and restores earlycon output.

Pull libnvdimm and dax updates from Dan Williams: "Save for a few late fixes, all of these commits have shipped in -next releases since before the merge window opened, and 0day has given a build success notification. The ext4 touches came from Jan, and the xfs touches have Darrick's reviewed-by. An xfstest for the MAP_SYNC feature has been through a few round of reviews and is on track to be merged. - Introduce MAP_SYNC and MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, a mechanism to enable 'userspace flush' of persistent memory updates via filesystem-dax mappings. It arranges for any filesystem metadata updates that may be required to satisfy a write fault to also be flushed ("on disk") before the kernel returns to userspace from the fault handler. Effectively every write-fault that dirties metadata completes an fsync() before returning from the fault handler. The new MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE mapping type guarantees that the MAP_SYNC flag is validated as supported by the filesystem's ->mmap() file operation. - Add support for the standard ACPI 6.2 label access methods that replace the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL (vendor specific) label methods. This enables interoperability with environments that only implement the standardized methods. - Add support for the ACPI 6.2 NVDIMM media error injection methods. - Add support for the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL v1.6 DIMM commands for latch last shutdown status, firmware update, SMART error injection, and SMART alarm threshold control. - Cleanup physical address information disclosures to be root-only. - Fix revalidation of the DIMM "locked label area" status to support dynamic unlock of the label area. - Expand unit test infrastructure to mock the ACPI 6.2 Translate SPA (system-physical-address) command and error injection commands.
