PA-RISC wants to sleep 5 seconds before panicking when panic_on_oops is set, with no apparent reason. Remove this feature, since some users may want their systems to fail as quickly as possible. Users who want to delay reboot after panic can use PANIC_TIMEOUT. Signed-off-by:

Pull more rdma updates from Doug Ledford: "Round two of 4.6 merge window patches. This is a monster pull request. I held off on the hfi1 driver updates (the hfi1 driver is intimately tied to the qib driver and the new rdmavt software library that was created to help both of them) in my first pull request. The hfi1/qib/rdmavt update is probably 90% of this pull request. The hfi1 driver is being left in staging so that it can be fixed up in regards to the API that Al and yourself didn't like. Intel has agreed to do the work, but in the meantime, this clears out 300+ patches in the backlog queue and brings my tree and their tree closer to sync. This also includes about 10 patches to the core and a few to mlx5 to create an infrastructure for configuring SRIOV ports on IB devices. That series includes one patch to the net core that we sent to netdev@ and Dave Miller with each of the three revisions to the series. We didn't get any response to the patch, so we took that as implicit approval. Finally, this series includes Intel's new iWARP driver for their x722 cards. It's not nearly the beast as the hfi1 driver. It also has a linux-next merge issue, but that has been resolved and it now passes just fine. Summary: - A few minor core fixups needed for the next patch series - The IB SRIOV series. This has bounced around for several versions. Of note is the fact that the first patch in this series effects the net core. It was directed to netdev and DaveM for each iteration of the series (three versions total). Dave did not object, but did not respond either. I've taken this as permission to move forward with the series. - The new Intel X722 iWARP driver - A huge set of updates to the Intel hfi1 driver. Of particular interest here is that we have left the driver in staging since it still has an API that people object to. Intel is working on a fix, but getting these patches in now helps keep me sane as the upstream and Intel's trees were over 300 patches apart" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dledford/rdma: (362 commits) IB/ipoib: Allow mcast packets from other VFs IB/mlx5: Implement callbacks for manipulating VFs net/mlx5_core: Implement modify HCA vport command net/mlx5_core: Add VF param when querying vport counter IB/ipoib: Add ndo operations for configuring VFs IB/core: Add interfaces to control VF attributes IB/core: Support accessing SA in virtualized environment IB/core: Add subnet prefix to port info IB/mlx5: Fix decision on using MAD_IFC net/core: Add support for configuring VF GUIDs IB/{core, ulp} Support above 32 possible device capability flags IB/core: Replace setting the zero values in ib_uverbs_ex_query_device net/mlx5_core: Introduce offload arithmetic hardware capabilities net/mlx5_core: Refactor device capability function net/mlx5_core: Fix caching ATOMIC endian mode capability ib_srpt: fix a WARN_ON() message i40iw: Replace the obsolete crypto hash interface with shash IB/hfi1: Add SDMA cache eviction algorithm IB/hfi1: Switch to using the pin query function IB/hfi1: Specify mm when releasing pages ... -

Use memset_io() for DMA_MEMORY_IO mappings which are mapped as I/O memory, and regular memset() for DMA_MEMORY_MAP mappings. This fixes the below alignment fault on arm64 for DMA_MEMORY_IO mappings, where memset() uses the DC ZVA instruction which is invalid on device memory.

Add a flag to memremap() for writecombine mappings. Mappings satisfied by this flag will not be cached, however writes may be delayed or combined into more efficient bursts. This is most suitable for buffers written sequentially by the CPU for use by other DMA devices. Signed-off-by:

Brian Starkey authored
These patches implement a MEMREMAP_WC flag for memremap(), which can be used to obtain writecombine mappings. This is then used for setting up dma_coherent_mem regions which use the DMA_MEMORY_MAP flag. The motivation is to fix an alignment fault on arm64, and the suggestion to implement MEMREMAP_WC for this case was made at [1]. That particular issue is handled in patch 4, which makes sure that the appropriate memset function is used when zeroing allocations mapped as IO memory. This patch (of 4): Don't modify the flags input argument to memremap(). MEMREMAP_WB is already a special case so we can check for it directly instead of clearing flag bits in each mapper.

The value of __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE defines the size (including padding) of the part of the struct siginfo that is before the union, and it is then used to calculate the needed padding (SI_PAD_SIZE) to make the size of struct siginfo equal to 128 (SI_MAX_SIZE) bytes. Depending on the target architecture and word width it equals to either 3 or 4 times sizeof int. Since the very beginning we had __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE wrong on the parisc architecture for the 64bit kernel build. It's even more frustrating, because it can easily be checked at compile time if the value was defined correctly. This patch adds such a check for the correctness of __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE in the hope that it will prevent existing and future architectures from running into the same problem. I refrained from replacing __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE by offsetof() in copy_siginfo() in include/asm-generic/siginfo.h, because a) it doesn't make any difference and b) it's used in the Documentation/kmemcheck.txt example. I ran this patch through the 0-DAY kernel test infrastructure and only the parisc architecture triggered as expected. That means that this patch should be OK for all major architectures.

The mprotect(PROT_READ) fails when called by the READ_IMPLIES_EXEC binary on a memory mapped file located on non-exec fs. The mprotect does not check whether fs is _executable_ or not. The PROT_EXEC flag is set automatically even if a memory mapped file is located on non-exec fs. Fix it by checking whether a memory mapped file is located on a non-exec fs. If so the PROT_EXEC is not implied by the PROT_READ. The implementation uses the VM_MAYEXEC flag set properly in mmap. Now it is consistent with mmap. I did the isolated tests (PT_GNU_STACK X/NX, multiple VMAs, X/NX fs). I also patched the official 3.19.0-47-generic Ubuntu 14.04 kernel and it seems to work. Signed-off-by:

As indicated by bug#112271, Linux sets the sempid value upon semctl, and not only for semop calls. However, within semctl we only do this for SETVAL, leaving SETALL without updating the field, and therefore rather inconsistent behavior when compared to other Unices. There is really no documentation regarding this and therefore users should not make assumptions. With this patch, along with updating semctl.2 manpages, this scenario should become less ambiguous As such, set sempid on SETALL cmd. Also update some in-code documentation, specifying where the sempid is set. Passes ltp and custom testcase where a child (fork) does SETALL to the set. Signed-off-by:

-fsanitize=* options makes GCC less smart than usual and increase number of 'maybe-uninitialized' false-positives. So this patch does two things: * Add -Wno-maybe-uninitialized to CFLAGS_UBSAN which will disable all such warnings for instrumented files. * Remove CONFIG_UBSAN_SANITIZE_ALL from all[yes|mod]config builds. So the all[yes|mod]config build goes without -fsanitize=* and still with -Wmaybe-uninitialized. Signed-off-by:

kcov provides code coverage collection for coverage-guided fuzzing (randomized testing). Coverage-guided fuzzing is a testing technique that uses coverage feedback to determine new interesting inputs to a system. A notable user-space example is AFL (http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/afl/). However, this technique is not widely used for kernel testing due to missing compiler and kernel support. kcov does not aim to collect as much coverage as possible. It aims to collect more or less stable coverage that is function of syscall inputs. To achieve this goal it does not collect coverage in soft/hard interrupts and instrumentation of some inherently non-deterministic or non-interesting parts of kernel is disbled (e.g. scheduler, locking). Currently there is a single coverage collection mode (tracing), but the API anticipates additional collection modes. Initially I also implemented a second mode which exposes coverage in a fixed-size hash table of counters (what Quentin used in his original patch). I've dropped the second mode for simplicity. This patch adds the necessary support on kernel side. The complimentary compiler support was added in gcc revision 231296. We've used this support to build syzkaller system call fuzzer, which has found 90 kernel bugs in just 2 months: https://github.com/google/syzkaller/wiki/Found-Bugs We've also found 30+ bugs in our internal systems with syzkaller. Another (yet unexplored) direction where kcov coverage would greatly help is more traditional "blob mutation". For example, mounting a random blob as a filesystem, or receiving a random blob over wire. Why not gcov. Typical fuzzing loop looks as follows: (1) reset coverage, (2) execute a bit of code, (3) collect coverage, repeat. A typical coverage can be just a dozen of basic blocks (e.g. an invalid input). In such context gcov becomes prohibitively expensive as reset/collect coverage steps depend on total number of basic blocks/edges in program (in case of kernel it is about 2M). Cost of kcov depends only on number of executed basic blocks/edges. On top of that, kernel requires per-thread coverage because there are always background threads and unrelated processes that also produce coverage. With inlined gcov instrumentation per-thread coverage is not possible. kcov exposes kernel PCs and control flow to user-space which is insecure. But debugfs should not be mapped as user accessible. Based on a patch by Quentin Casasnovas.

Commit 1717f209 ("panic, x86: Fix re-entrance problem due to panic on NMI") and commit 58c5661f ("panic, x86: Allow CPUs to save registers even if looping in NMI context") introduced nmi_panic() which prevents concurrent/recursive execution of panic(). It also saves registers for the crash dump on x86. However, there are some cases where NMI handlers still use panic(). This patch set partially replaces them with nmi_panic() in those cases. Even this patchset is applied, some NMI or similar handlers (e.g. MCE handler) continue to use panic(). This is because I can't test them well and actual problems won't happen. For example, the possibility that normal panic and panic on MCE happen simultaneously is very low. This patch (of 3): Convert nmi_panic() to a proper function and export it instead of exporting internal implementation details to modules, for obvious reasons. Signed-off-by:

Since commit e22553e2 ("eventfd: don't take the spinlock in eventfd_poll", 2015-02-17), eventfd is reading ctx->count outside ctx->wqh.lock. However, things aren't as simple as the read barrier in eventfd_poll would suggest. In fact, the read barrier, besides lacking a comment, is not paired in any obvious manner with another read barrier, and it is pointless because it is sitting between a write (deep in poll_wait) and the read of ctx->count. The read barrier is acting just as a compiler barrier, for which we can use READ_ONCE instead. This is what the code change in this patch does. The documentation change is just as important, however. The question, posed by Andrea Arcangeli, is then why the thing is safe on architectures where spin_unlock does not imply a store-load memory barrier. The answer is that it's safe because writes of ctx->count use the same lock as poll_wait, and hence an acquire barrier implicit in poll_wait provides the necessary synchronization between eventfd_poll and callers of wake_up_locked_poll. This is sort of mentioned in the commit message with respect to eventfd_ctx_read ("eventfd_read is similar, it will do a single decrement with the lock held") but it applies to all other callers too. It's tricky enough that it should be documented in the code. Signed-off-by:

The current_user_ns() macro currently returns &init_user_ns when user namespaces are disabled, and that causes several warnings when building with gcc-6.0 in code that compares the result of the macro to &init_user_ns itself: fs/xfs/xfs_ioctl.c: In function 'xfs_ioctl_setattr_check_projid': fs/xfs/xfs_ioctl.c:1249:22: error: self-comparison always evaluates to true [-Werror=tautological-compare] if (current_user_ns() == &init_user_ns) This is a legitimate warning in principle, but here it isn't really helpful, so I'm reprasing the definition in a way that shuts up the warning. Apparently gcc only warns when comparing identical literals, but it can figure out that the result of an inline function can be identical to a constant expression in order to optimize a condition yet not warn about the fact that the condition is known at compile time. This is exactly what we want here, and it looks reasonable because we generally prefer inline functions over macros anyway.
