Linus Torvalds 077d3dafe6 Merge branch 'core-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull watchdog core update from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A single commit adding a command line parameter which allows to set
  the watchdog threshold on the kernel command-line, so kernels with
  massive debug facilities enabled won't trigger the watchdog during
  early boot and before the threshold can be changed via sysctl"

Dmitry Torokhov 7bae0432a6 usb: core: add option of only authorizing internal devices
On Chrome OS we want to use USBguard to potentially limit access to USB
devices based on policy. We however to do not want to wait for userspace to
come up before initializing fixed USB devices to not regress our boot
times.

This patch adds option to instruct the kernel to only authorize devices
connected to the internal ports. Previously we could either authorize
all or none (or, by default, we'd only authorize wired devices).

The behavior is controlled via usbcore.authorized_default command line
option.

David S. Miller 3313da8188 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
The netfilter conflicts were rather simple overlapping
changes.

However, the cls_tcindex.c stuff was a bit more complex.

On the 'net' side, Cong is fixing several races and memory
leaks.  Whilst on the 'net-next' side we have Vlad adding
the rtnl-ness support.

What I've decided to do, in order to resolve this, is revert the
conversion over to using a workqueue that Cong did, bringing us back
to pure RCU.  I did it this way because I believe that either Cong's
races don't apply with have Vlad did things, or Cong will have to
implement the race fix slightly differently.

Feng Tang 1ea61b68d0 async: Add cmdline option to specify drivers to be async probed
Asynchronous driver probing can help much on kernel fastboot, and
this option can provide a flexible way to optimize and quickly verify
async driver probe.

Also it will help in below cases:
* Some driver actually covers several families of HWs, some of which
  could use async probing while others don't. So we can't simply
  turn on the PROBE_PREFER_ASYNCHRONOUS flag in driver, but use this
  cmdline option, like igb driver async patch discussed at
  https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg545986.html

* For SOC (System on Chip) with multiple spi or i2c controllers, most
  of the slave spi/i2c devices will be assigned with fixed controller
  number, while async probing may make those controllers get different
  index for each boot, which prevents those controller drivers to be
  async probed. For platforms not using these spi/i2c slave devices,
  they can use this cmdline option to benefit from the async probing.

Ard Biesheuvel 69c1f396f2 efi/x86: Convert x86 EFI earlyprintk into generic earlycon implementation
Move the x86 EFI earlyprintk implementation to a shared location under
drivers/firmware and tweak it slightly so we can expose it as an earlycon
implementation (which is generic) rather than earlyprintk (which is only
implemented for a few architectures)

This also involves switching to write-combine mappings by default (which
is required on ARM since device mappings lack memory semantics, and so
memcpy/memset may not be used on them), and adding support for shared
memory framebuffers on cache coherent non-x86 systems (which do not
tolerate mismatched attributes).

Note that 32-bit ARM does not populate its struct screen_info early
enough for earlycon=efifb to work, so it is disabled there.

Martin Kepplinger 3fc46fc9f6 ipconfig: add carrier_timeout kernel parameter
commit 3fb72f1e6e ("ipconfig wait for carrier") added a
"wait for carrier" policy, with a fixed worst case maximum wait
of two minutes.

Now make the wait for carrier timeout configurable on the kernel
commandline and use the 120s as the default.

The timeout messages introduced with
commit 5e404cd658 ("ipconfig: add informative timeout messages while
waiting for carrier") are done in a fixed interval of 20 seconds, just
like they were before (240/12).

Lu Baolu 8950dcd83a iommu/vt-d: Leave scalable mode default off
Commit 765b6a98c1 ("iommu/vt-d: Enumerate the scalable
mode capability") enables VT-d scalable mode if hardware
advertises the capability. As we will bring up different
features and use cases to upstream in different patch
series, it will leave some intermediate kernel versions
which support partial features. Hence, end user might run
into problems when they use such kernels on bare metals
or virtualization environments.

This leaves scalable mode default off and end users could
turn it on with "intel-iommu=sm_on" only when they have
clear ideas about which scalable features are supported
in the kernel.

Life is hard if RCU manages to get stuck without triggering RCU CPU

for failing to start a grace period.  This commit therefore adds a
boot-time-selectable sysrq key (commandeering "y") that allows manually

Linus Torvalds b23b0ea370 ARM: SoC: late updates
A few updates that we merged late but are low risk for regressions for
 other platforms (and a few other straggling patches):
 
  - I mis-tagged the 'drivers' branch, and missed 3 patches. Merged in
    here. They're for a driver for the PL353 SRAM controller and a build
    fix for the qualcomm scm driver.
  - A new platform, RDA Micro RDA8810PL (Cortex-A5 w/ integrated Vivante
    GPU, 256MB RAM, Wifi). This includes some acked platform-specific
    drivers (serial, etc). This also include DTs for two boards with this
    SoC, OrangePi 2G and OrangePi i86.
  - i.MX8 is another new platform (NXP, 4x Cortex-A53 + Cortex-M4, 4K
    video playback offload). This is the first i.MX 64-bit SoC.
  - Some minor updates to Samsung boards (adding a few peripherals in
    DTs).
  - Small rework for SMP bootup on STi platforms.
  - A couple of TEE driver fixes.
  - A couple of new config options (bcm2835 thermal, Uniphier MDMAC)
    enabled in defconfigs.

Kernel panic issues are always painful to debug, partially because it's
not easy to get enough information of the context when panic happens.

And we have ramoops and kdump for that, while this commit tries to
provide a easier way to show the system info by adding a cmdline

Linus Torvalds 8d6973327e powerpc updates for 4.21
Notable changes:
 
  - Mitigations for Spectre v2 on some Freescale (NXP) CPUs.
 
  - A large series adding support for pass-through of Nvidia V100 GPUs to guests
    on Power9.
 
  - Another large series to enable hardware assistance for TLB table walk on

  - Some preparatory changes to our DMA code, to make way for further cleanups
    from Christoph.
 
  - Several fixes for our Transactional Memory handling discovered by fuzzing the
    signal return path.
 
  - Support for generating our system call table(s) from a text file like other
    architectures.
 
  - A fix to our page fault handler so that instead of generating a WARN_ON_ONCE,
    user accesses of kernel addresses instead print a ratelimited and
    appropriately scary warning.
 
  - A cosmetic change to make our unhandled page fault messages more similar to
    other arches and also more compact and informative.
 
  - Freescale updates from Scott:
    "Highlights include elimination of legacy clock bindings use from dts
     files, an 83xx watchdog handler, fixes to old dts interrupt errors, and
     some minor cleanup."
 
 And many clean-ups, reworks and minor fixes etc.

   - Support for generating our system call table(s) from a text file
     like other architectures.

   - A fix to our page fault handler so that instead of generating a
     WARN_ON_ONCE, user accesses of kernel addresses instead print a
     ratelimited and appropriately scary warning.

   - A cosmetic change to make our unhandled page fault messages more
     similar to other arches and also more compact and informative.

   - Freescale updates from Scott:
       "Highlights include elimination of legacy clock bindings use from
        dts files, an 83xx watchdog handler, fixes to old dts interrupt
        errors, and some minor cleanup."

  And many clean-ups, reworks and minor fixes etc.

Michal Hocko 5b5e4d623e x86/speculation/l1tf: Drop the swap storage limit restriction when l1tf=off
Swap storage is restricted to max_swapfile_size (~16TB on x86_64) whenever
the system is deemed affected by L1TF vulnerability. Even though the limit
is quite high for most deployments it seems to be too restrictive for
deployments which are willing to live with the mitigation disabled.

We have a customer to deploy 8x 6,4TB PCIe/NVMe SSD swap devices which is
clearly out of the limit.

Drop the swap restriction when l1tf=off is specified. It also doesn't make
much sense to warn about too much memory for the l1tf mitigation when it is
forcefully disabled by the administrator.

Lu Baolu 765b6a98c1 iommu/vt-d: Enumerate the scalable mode capability
The Intel vt-d spec rev3.0 introduces a new translation
mode called scalable mode, which enables PASID-granular
translations for first level, second level, nested and
pass-through modes. At the same time, the previous
Extended Context (ECS) mode is deprecated (no production
ever implements ECS).

This patch adds enumeration for Scalable Mode and removes
the deprecated ECS enumeration. It provides a boot time
option to disable scalable mode even hardware claims to
support it.

Now that the forward-progress code does a full-bore continuous callback
flood lasting multiple seconds, there is little point in also posting a
mere 60,000 callbacks every second or so.  This commit therefore removes

do full-bore continuous callback floods on all CPUs simultaneously, but

Johannes Weiner e0c274472d psi: make disabling/enabling easier for vendor kernels
Mel Gorman reports a hackbench regression with psi that would prohibit
shipping the suse kernel with it default-enabled, but he'd still like
users to be able to opt in at little to no cost to others.

With the current combination of CONFIG_PSI and the psi_disabled bool set
from the commandline, this is a challenge.  Do the following things to
make it easier:

1. Add a config option CONFIG_PSI_DEFAULT_DISABLED that allows distros
   to enable CONFIG_PSI in their kernel but leave the feature disabled
   unless a user requests it at boot-time.

   To avoid double negatives, rename psi_disabled= to psi=.

2. Make psi_disabled a static branch to eliminate any branch costs
   when the feature is disabled.

In terms of numbers before and after this patch, Mel says:

Thomas Gleixner 6b3e64c237 x86/speculation: Add seccomp Spectre v2 user space protection mode
If 'prctl' mode of user space protection from spectre v2 is selected
on the kernel command-line, STIBP and IBPB are applied on tasks which
restrict their indirect branch speculation via prctl.

SECCOMP enables the SSBD mitigation for sandboxed tasks already, so it
makes sense to prevent spectre v2 user space to user space attacks as
well.

The Intel mitigation guide documents how STIPB works:
    
   Setting bit 1 (STIBP) of the IA32_SPEC_CTRL MSR on a logical processor
   prevents the predicted targets of indirect branches on any logical
   processor of that core from being controlled by software that executes
   (or executed previously) on another logical processor of the same core.

Ergo setting STIBP protects the task itself from being attacked from a task
running on a different hyper-thread and protects the tasks running on
different hyper-threads from being attacked.

While the document suggests that the branch predictors are shielded between
the logical processors, the observed performance regressions suggest that
STIBP simply disables the branch predictor more or less completely. Of
course the document wording is vague, but the fact that there is also no
requirement for issuing IBPB when STIBP is used points clearly in that
direction. The kernel still issues IBPB even when STIBP is used until Intel
clarifies the whole mechanism.

IBPB is issued when the task switches out, so malicious sandbox code cannot
mistrain the branch predictor for the next user space task on the same
logical processor.

Thomas Gleixner fa1202ef22 x86/speculation: Add command line control for indirect branch speculation
Add command line control for user space indirect branch speculation
mitigations. The new option is: spectre_v2_user=

The initial options are:

    -  on:   Unconditionally enabled
    - off:   Unconditionally disabled
    -auto:   Kernel selects mitigation (default off for now)

When the spectre_v2= command line argument is either 'on' or 'off' this
implies that the application to application control follows that state even
if a contradicting spectre_v2_user= argument is supplied.

Peter Zijlstra 2a5bf23d5b perf/x86/intel: Fix regression by default disabling perfmon v4 interrupt handling
Kyle Huey reported that 'rr', a replay debugger, broke due to the following commit:

  af3bdb991a ("perf/x86/intel: Add a separate Arch Perfmon v4 PMI handler")

Rework the 'disable_counter_freezing' __setup() parameter such that we
can explicitly enable/disable it and switch to default disabled.

To this purpose, rename the parameter to "perf_v4_pmi=" which is a much
better description and allows requiring a bool argument.

[ mingo: Improved the changelog some more. ]

Will Deacon 806654a966 Documentation: Use "while" instead of "whilst"
Whilst making an unrelated change to some Documentation, Linus sayeth:

  | Afaik, even in Britain, "whilst" is unusual and considered more
  | formal, and "while" is the common word.
  |
  | [...]
  |
  | Can we just admit that we work with computers, and we don't need to
  | use þe eald Englisc spelling of words that most of the world never
  | uses?

dictionary.com refers to the word as "Chiefly British", which is
probably an undesirable attribute for technical documentation.

Replace all occurrences under Documentation/ with "while".
