[ Upstream commit 56cd0aefa475079e9613085b14a0f05037518fed ]

The PERF_EVENT_IOC_PERIOD ioctl command can be used to change the
sample period of a running perf_event. Consequently, when calculating
the next event period, the new period will only be considered after the
previous one has overflowed.

This patch changes the calculation of the remaining event ticks so that
they are offset if the period has changed.

See commit 3581fe0ef37c ("ARM: 7556/1: perf: fix updated event period in
response to PERF_EVENT_IOC_PERIOD") for details.

[ Upstream commit 80caf43549e7e41a695c6d1e11066286538b336f ]

In get_vdev_port_node_info(), 'node_info-&gt;vdev_port.name' is allcoated
by kstrdup_const(), and it returns NULL when fails. So
'node_info-&gt;vdev_port.name' should be checked.

commit d3c976c14ad8af421134c428b0a89ff8dd3bd8f8 upstream.

Previously, %g2 would end up with the value PAGE_SIZE, but after the
commit mentioned below it ends up with the value 1 due to being reused
for a different purpose. We need it to be PAGE_SIZE as we use it to step
through pages in our demap loop, otherwise we set different flags in the
low 12 bits of the address written to, thereby doing things other than a
nucleus page flush.

Pull syscall numbering updates from Arnd Bergmann:
 "arch: add pidfd and io_uring syscalls everywhere

  This comes a bit late, but should be in 5.1 anyway: we want the newly
  added system calls to be synchronized across all architectures in the
  release.

  I hope that in the future, any newly added system calls can be added
  to all architectures at the same time, and tested there while they are
  in linux-next, avoiding dependencies between the architecture
  maintainer trees and the tree that contains the new system call"

Add the io_uring and pidfd_send_signal system calls to all architectures.

These system calls are designed to handle both native and compat tasks,
so all entries are the same across architectures, only arm-compat and
the generic tale still use an old format.

<content type='text'>
Now that we allow drivers to always need to set larger than required
DMA masks we need to be a little more careful in the sun4v PCI iommu
driver to chose when to select the ATU support - a larger DMA mask
can be set even when the platform does not support ATU, so we always
have to check if it is avaiable before using it.  Add a little helper
for that and use it in all the places where we make ATU usage decisions
based on the DMA mask.

<title>syscalls: Remove start and number from syscall_set_arguments() args</title>

After removing the start and count arguments of syscall_get_arguments() it
seems reasonable to remove them from syscall_set_arguments(). Note, as of
today, there are no users of syscall_set_arguments(). But we are told that
there will be soon. But for now, at least make it consistent with
syscall_get_arguments().

At Linux Plumbers, Andy Lutomirski approached me and pointed out that the
function call syscall_get_arguments() implemented in x86 was horribly
written and not optimized for the standard case of passing in 0 and 6 for
the starting index and the number of system calls to get. When looking at
all the users of this function, I discovered that all instances pass in only
0 and 6 for these arguments. Instead of having this function handle
different cases that are never used, simply rewrite it to return the first 6
arguments of a system call.

This should help out the performance of tracing system calls by ptrace,
ftrace and perf.

<title>KVM: export &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt; and &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; iif KVM is supported</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3d9683cf3bfb6d4e4605a153958dfca7e18b52f2</id>
<content type='text'>
I do not see any consistency about headers_install of &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt;
and &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt;.

According to my analysis of Linux 5.1-rc1, there are 3 groups:

 [1] Both &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt; and &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; are exported

    alpha, arm, hexagon, mips, powerpc, s390, sparc, x86

 [2] &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; is exported, but &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt; is not

    arc, arm64, c6x, h8300, ia64, m68k, microblaze, nios2, openrisc,
    parisc, sh, unicore32, xtensa

 [3] Neither &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt; nor &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; is exported

    csky, nds32, riscv

This does not match to the actual KVM support. At least, [2] is
half-baked.

Nor do arch maintainers look like they care about this. For example,
commit 0add53713b1c ("microblaze: Add missing kvm_para.h to Kbuild")
exported &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; to user-space in order to fix an in-kernel
build error.

We have two ways to make this consistent:

 [A] export both &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt; and &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; for all
     architectures, irrespective of the KVM support

 [B] Match the header export of &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt; and &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt;
     to the KVM support

My first attempt was [A] because the code looks cleaner, but Paolo
suggested [B].

So, this commit goes with [B].

For most architectures, &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; was moved to the kernel-space.
I changed include/uapi/linux/Kbuild so that it checks generated
asm/kvm_para.h as well as check-in ones.

After this commit, there will be two groups:

 [1] Both &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt; and &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; are exported

    arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, s390, x86

 [2] Neither &lt;linux/kvm_para.h&gt; nor &lt;asm/kvm_para.h&gt; is exported

    alpha, arc, c6x, csky, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m68k, microblaze,
    nds32, nios2, openrisc, parisc, riscv, sh, sparc, unicore32, xtensa
