a) The ACQUIRE in spin_lock() applies to the read, not to the store, at
least for powerpc. This forces to add a smp_mb() into the fast path.
b) The memory barrier provided by spin_unlock_wait() is right now arch
dependent.
Therefore: Use spin_lock()/spin_unlock() instead of spin_unlock_wait().
Advantage: faster single op semop calls(), observed +8.9% on x86. (the
other solution would be arch dependencies in ipc/sem).
Disadvantage: slower complex op semop calls, if (and only if) there are
no sleeping operations.
The next patch adds hysteresis, this further reduces the probability
that the slow path is used.

Commit 4a9d4b024a ("switch fput to task_work_add") implements a
schedule_work() for completing fput(), but did not guarantee calling
__fput() after unpacking initramfs. Because of this, there is a
possibility that during boot a driver can see ETXTBSY when it tries to
load a binary from initramfs as fput() is still pending on that binary.
This patch makes sure that fput() is completed after unpacking initramfs
and removes the call to flush_delayed_fput() in kernel_init() which
happens very late after unpacking initramfs.

The aio interface adds substantial attack surface for a feature that's
not being exposed by Android at all. It's unlikely that anyone is using
the kernel feature directly either. This feature is rarely used even on
servers. The glibc POSIX aio calls really use thread pools. The lack
of widespread usage also means this is relatively poorly audited/tested.
The kernel's aio rarely provides performance benefits over using a
thread pool and is quite incomplete in terms of system call coverage
along with having edge cases where blocking can occur. Part of the
performance issue is the fact that it only supports direct io, not
buffered io. The existing API is considered fundamentally flawed and
it's unlikely it will be expanded, but rather replaced:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-aio&m=145255815216051&w=2
Since ext4 encryption means no direct io support, kernel aio isn't even
going to work properly on Android devices using file-based encryption.

In case if epoll_ctl is called with operation EPOLL_CTL_DEL then

if (op == EPOLL_CTL_ADD && (is_file_epoll(tf.file) ||

Currently all the p_paddr of PT_LOAD headers are assigned to 0, which is
not true and could be misleading, since 0 is a valid physical address.
User space tools like makedumpfile needs to know physical address for
PT_LOAD segments of direct mapped regions. Therefore this patch updates
paddr for such regions. It also sets an invalid paddr (-1) for other
regions, so that user space tool can know whether a physical address
provided in PT_LOAD is correct or not.
I do not know why it was 0, which is a valid physical address. But
certainly, it might break some user space tools, and those need to be
fixed. For example, see following code from kexec-tools
kexec/kexec-elf.c:build_mem_phdrs()
if ((phdr->p_paddr + phdr->p_memsz) < phdr->p_paddr) {
/* The memory address wraps */
if (probe_debug) {
fprintf(stderr, "ELF address wrap around\n");
}
return -1;
}
We do not need to perform above check for an invalid physical address.
I think, kexec-tools and makedumpfile will need fixup. I already have
those fixup which will be sent upstream once this patch makes through.
Pro with this approach is that, it will help to calculate variable like
page_offset, phys_base from PT_LOAD even when they are randomized and
therefore will reduce many variable and version specific values in user
space tools.
Having an ASLR offset information can help to translate an identity
mapped virtual address to a physical address. But that would be an
additional field in PT_LOAD header structure and an arch dependent
value.
Moreover, sending a valid physical address like 0 does not seem right.
So, IMHO it is better to fix that and send valid physical address when
available (identity mapped).

GUI environments seem to be becoming more agressive at scanning
filesystems, to the point where autofs cannot expire mounts at all.
This is one key reason the update of the autofs dentry info last_used
field is done in the expire system when the dentry is seen to be in use.
But somewhere along the way instances of the update has crept back into
the autofs path walk functions which, with the more aggressive file
access patterns, is preventing expiration.
Changing the update in the path walk functions allows autofs to at least
make progress in spite of frequent immediate re-mounts from file
accesses.

Often all is needed is these small helpers, instead of compiler.h or a
full kprobes.h. This is important for asm helpers, in fact even some
asm/kprobes.h make use of these helpers... instead just keep a generic
asm file with helpers useful for asm code with the least amount of
clutter as possible.
Likewise we need now to also address what to do about this file for both
when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES, and when they do not. Then
for when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES but have disabled
CONFIG_KPROBES.
Right now most asm/kprobes.h do not have guards against CONFIG_KPROBES,
this means most architecture code cannot include asm/kprobes.h safely.
Correct this and add guards for architectures missing them.
Additionally provide architectures that not have kprobes support with
the default asm-generic solution. This lets us force asm/kprobes.h on
the header include/linux/kprobes.h always, but most importantly we can
now safely include just asm/kprobes.h on architecture code without
bringing the full kitchen sink of header files.
Two architectures already provided a guard against CONFIG_KPROBES on its
kprobes.h: sh, arch. The rest of the architectures needed gaurds added.
We avoid including any not-needed headers on asm/kprobes.h unless
kprobes have been enabled.
In a subsequent atomic change we can try now to remove compiler.h from
include/linux/kprobes.h.
During this sweep I've also identified a few architectures defining a
common macro needed for both kprobes and ftrace, that of the definition
of the breakput instruction up. Some refer to this as
BREAKPOINT_INSTRUCTION. This must be kept outside of the #ifdef
CONFIG_KPROBES guard.

Change the zpool/compressor param callback function to release the
zswap_pools_lock spinlock before calling param_set_charp, since that
function may sleep when it calls kmalloc with GFP_KERNEL.
While this problem has existed for a while, I wasn't able to trigger it
using a tight loop changing either/both the zpool and compressor params; I
think it's very unlikely to be an issue on the stable kernels, especially
since most zswap users will change the compressor and/or zpool from sysfs
only one time each boot - or zero times, if they add the params to the
kernel boot.

"Commit 79c6f448c8 ("tracing: Fix hwlat kthread migration") fixed a
bug that was caused by a race condition in initializing the hwlat
thread. When fixing this code, I realized that it should have been
done differently. Instead of doing the rewrite and sending that to
stable, I just sent the above commit to fix the bug that should be
back ported.
This commit is on top of the quick fix commit to rewrite the code the
way it should have been written in the first place"

qed: Bug fixes
Patch #1 addresses a day-one race which is dependent on the number of Vfs
[I.e., more child VFs from a single PF make it more probable].
Patch #2 corrects a race that got introduced in the last set of fixes for
qed, one that would happen each time PF transitions to UP state.
I've built & tested those against current net-next.
Please consider applying the series there.

Commit 653d2ffd6405 ("qed*: Fix link indication race") introduced another
race - one of the inner functions called from the link-change flow is
explicitly using the slowpath context dedicated PTT instead of gaining
that PTT from the caller. Since this flow can now be called from
a different context as well, we're in risk of the PTT breaking.

A PF syncronizes all IOV activity relating to its VFs
by using a single workqueue handling the work.
The workqueue would reach a bitmask of pending VF events
and act upon each in turn.
Problem is that the indication of a VF message [which sets
the 'vf event' bit for that VF] arrives and is set in
the slowpath attention context, which isn't syncronized with
the processing of the events.
When multiple VFs are present, it's possible that PF would
lose the indication of one of the VF's pending evens, leading
that VF to later timeout.
Instead of adding locks/barriers, simply move from a bitmask
into a per-VF indication inside that VF entry in the PF database.

Netfilter fixes for net
The following patchset contains netfilter fixes for you net tree,
they are:
1) Missing ct zone size in the nft_ct initialization path, patch
from Florian Westphal.
2) Two patches for netfilter uapi headers, one to remove unnecessary
sysctl.h inclusion and another to fix compilation of xt_hashlimit.h
in userspace, from Dmitry V. Levin.
3) Patch to fix a sloppy change in nf_ct_expect that incorrectly
simplified nf_ct_expect_related_report() in the previous nf-next
batch. This also includes another patch for __nf_ct_expect_check()
to report success by returning 0 to keep it consistent with other
existing functions. From Jarno Rajahalme.
4) The ->walk() iterator of the new bitmap set type goes over the real
bitmap size, this results in incorrect dumps when NFTA_SET_USERDATA
is used.

Fix xfrm_neigh_lookup to provide dst->path to the
neigh_lookup dst_ops method.
When skb is provided, the IP address in packet should already
match the dst->path address family. But for the non-skb case,
we should consider the last tunnel address as nexthop address.

Calls made through the in-kernel interface can end up getting stuck because
of a missed variable update in a loop in rxrpc_recvmsg_data(). The problem
is like this:
(1) A new packet comes in and doesn't cause a notification to be given to
the client as there's still another packet in the ring - the
assumption being that if the client will keep drawing off data until
the ring is empty.
(2) The client is in rxrpc_recvmsg_data(), inside the big while loop that
iterates through the packets. This copies the window pointers into
variables rather than using the information in the call struct
because:
(a) MSG_PEEK might be in effect;
(b) we need a barrier after reading call->rx_top to pair with the
barrier in the softirq routine that loads the buffer.
(3) The reading of call->rx_top is done outside of the loop, and top is
never updated whilst we're in the loop. This means that even through
there's a new packet available, we don't see it and may return -EFAULT
to the caller - who will happily return to the scheduler and await the
next notification.
(4) No further notifications are forthcoming until there's an abort as the
ring isn't empty.
The fix is to move the read of call->rx_top inside the loop - but it needs
to be done before the condition is checked.

When tc actions are loaded as a module and no actions have been installed,
flushing them would result in actions removed from the memory, but modules
reference count not being decremented, so that the modules would not be
unloaded.
Following is example with GACT action:
% sudo modprobe act_gact
% lsmod
Module Size Used by
act_gact 16384 0
%
% sudo tc actions ls action gact
%
% sudo tc actions flush action gact
% lsmod

act_gact 16384 1
% sudo tc actions flush action gact
% lsmod
Module Size Used by
act_gact 16384 2
% sudo rmmod act_gact
rmmod: ERROR: Module act_gact is in use
....
After the fix:
% lsmod

% sudo tc actions add action pass index 1

Commit 5e1859fbcc ("ipv4: ipmr: various fixes and cleanups") fixed
the issue for ipv4 ipmr:
ip_mroute_setsockopt() & ip_mroute_getsockopt() should not
access/set raw_sk(sk)->ipmr_table before making sure the socket
is a raw socket, and protocol is IGMP
The same fix should be done for ipv6 ipmr as well.
This patch can fix the panic caused by overwriting the same offset
as ipmr_table as in raw_sk(sk) when accessing other type's socket
by ip_mroute_setsockopt().
