Peter Zijlstra e360adbe29 irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacks
Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is
most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the
system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers.

Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as
a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also
benefit.

The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where
possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the
built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately.

Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a
callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call
irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such
work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in
processing the work.

Arnd Bergmann 6038f373a3 llseek: automatically add .llseek fop
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

David Howells df9ee29270 Fix IRQ flag handling naming
Fix the IRQ flag handling naming.  In linux/irqflags.h under one configuration,
it maps:

	local_irq_enable() -> raw_local_irq_enable()
	local_irq_disable() -> raw_local_irq_disable()
	local_irq_save() -> raw_local_irq_save()
	...

and under the other configuration, it maps:

	raw_local_irq_enable() -> local_irq_enable()
	raw_local_irq_disable() -> local_irq_disable()
	raw_local_irq_save() -> local_irq_save()
	...

This is quite confusing.  There should be one set of names expected of the
arch, and this should be wrapped to give another set of names that are expected
by users of this facility.

Change this to have the arch provide:

	flags = arch_local_save_flags()
	flags = arch_local_irq_save()
	arch_local_irq_restore(flags)
	arch_local_irq_disable()
	arch_local_irq_enable()
	arch_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
	arch_irqs_disabled()
	arch_safe_halt()

Then linux/irqflags.h wraps these to provide:

	raw_local_save_flags(flags)
	raw_local_irq_save(flags)
	raw_local_irq_restore(flags)
	raw_local_irq_disable()
	raw_local_irq_enable()
	raw_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
	raw_irqs_disabled()
	raw_safe_halt()

with type checking on the flags 'arguments', and then wraps those to provide:

	local_save_flags(flags)
	local_irq_save(flags)
	local_irq_restore(flags)
	local_irq_disable()
	local_irq_enable()
	irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
	irqs_disabled()
	safe_halt()

with tracing included if enabled.

The arch functions can now all be inline functions rather than some of them
having to be macros.

Linus Torvalds 5336377d62 modules: Fix module_bug_list list corruption race
With all the recent module loading cleanups, we've minimized the code
that sits under module_mutex, fixing various deadlocks and making it
possible to do most of the module loading in parallel.

However, that whole conversion totally missed the rather obscure code
that adds a new module to the list for BUG() handling.  That code was
doubly obscure because (a) the code itself lives in lib/bugs.c (for
dubious reasons) and (b) it gets called from the architecture-specific
"module_finalize()" rather than from generic code.

Calling it from arch-specific code makes no sense what-so-ever to begin
with, and is now actively wrong since that code isn't protected by the
module loading lock any more.

So this commit moves the "module_bug_{finalize,cleanup}()" calls away
from the arch-specific code, and into the generic code - and in the
process protects it with the module_mutex so that the list operations
are now safe.

Future fixups:
 - move the module list handling code into kernel/module.c where it
   belongs.
 - get rid of 'module_bug_list' and just use the regular list of modules
   (called 'modules' - imagine that) that we already create and maintain
   for other reasons.

H. Peter Anvin c41d68a513 compat: Make compat_alloc_user_space() incorporate the access_ok()
compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call
access_ok() to verify the returned area.  A missing call could
introduce problems on some architectures.

This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into
compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length.
The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed
arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the
implementation of the new global function.

This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either
fail or access userspace on all architectures.  This should be
followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space()
for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers
can also be removed.

Jan Glauber d36deae750 qdio: extend API to allow polling
Extend the qdio API to allow polling in the upper-layer driver. This
is needed by qeth to use NAPI.

To use the new interface the upper-layer driver must specify the
queue_start_poll(). This callback is used to signal the upper-layer
driver that is has initiative and must process the inbound queue by
calling qdio_get_next_buffers(). If the upper-layer driver wants to
stop polling it calls qdio_start_irq().

Since adapter interrupts are not completely stoppable qdio implements
a software bit QDIO_QUEUE_IRQS_DISABLED to safely disable interrupts for an
input queue.

The old interface is preserved and will be used as is by zfcp.

Martin Schwidefsky 050eef364a [S390] fix tlb flushing vs. concurrent /proc accesses
The tlb flushing code uses the mm_users field of the mm_struct to
decide if each page table entry needs to be flushed individually with
IPTE or if a global flush for the mm_struct is sufficient after all page
table updates have been done. The comment for mm_users says "How many
users with user space?" but the /proc code increases mm_users after it
found the process structure by pid without creating a new user process.
Which makes mm_users useless for the decision between the two tlb
flusing methods. The current code can be confused to not flush tlb
entries by a concurrent access to /proc files if e.g. a fork is in
progres. The solution for this problem is to make the tlb flushing
logic independent from the mm_users field.

David Howells d7627467b7 Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer
Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles
correctly on ARM:

arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type

This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for
the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to.  This is
because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to
copy_strings_kernel().  A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename
pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel().

do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv
or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as
const should be fine.

Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match.

This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.

hyc@symas.com 26df6d1340 tty: Add EXTPROC support for LINEMODE
This patch is against the 2.6.34 source.

Paraphrased from the 1989 BSD patch by David Borman @ cray.com:

     These are the changes needed for the kernel to support
     LINEMODE in the server.

     There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC.
     When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver
     are disabled.  Input line editing, character echo, and mapping
     of signals are all disabled.  This allows the telnetd to turn
     off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of
     what state the user wants the terminal to be in.

     New ioctl:
         TIOCSIG         Generate a signal to processes in the
                         current process group of the pty.

     There is a new mode for packet driver, the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit.
     When packet mode is turned on in the pty, and the EXTPROC bit
     is set, then whenever the state of the pty is changed, the
     next read on the master side of the pty will have the TIOCPKT_IOCTL
     bit set.  This allows the process on the server side of the pty
     to know when the state of the terminal has changed; it can then
     issue the appropriate ioctl to retrieve the new state.

Since the original BSD patches accompanied the source code for telnet
I've left that reference here, but obviously the feature is useful for
any remote terminal protocol, including ssh.

The corresponding feature has existed in the BSD tty driver since 1989.
For historical reference, a good copy of the relevant files can be found
here:

Heiko Carstens a1b200e27c mm: provide init_mm mm_context initializer
Provide an INIT_MM_CONTEXT intializer macro which can be used to
statically initialize mm_struct:mm_context of init_mm.  This way we can
get rid of code which will do the initialization at run time (on s390).

In addition the current code can be found at a place where it is not
expected.  So let's have a common initializer which architectures
can use if needed.

This is based on a patch from Suzuki Poulose.

Sam Ravnborg 6588169d51 kbuild: allow assignment to {A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE on the command line
It is now possible to assign options to AS, CC and LD
on the command line - which is only used when building modules.

{A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE was all used both in the top-level Makefile
in the arch makefiles, thus users had no way to specify
additional options to AS, CC, LD when building modules
without overriding the original value.

Introduce a new set of variables KBUILD_{A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE
that is used by arch specific files and free up
{A,C,LD}FLAGS_MODULE so they can be assigned on
the command line.

All arch Makefiles that used the old variables has been updated.

Note: Previously we had a MODFLAGS variable for both
AS and CC. But in favour of consistency this was dropped.
So in some cases arch Makefile has one assignmnet replaced by
two assignmnets.

Note2: MODFLAGS was not documented and is dropped
without any notice. I do not expect much/any breakage
from this.

Christian Borntraeger fc34531db3 KVM: s390: Don't exit SIE on SIGP sense running
Newer (guest) kernels use sigp sense running in their spinlock
implementation to check if the other cpu is running before yielding

unnecessary exits for every sigp sense running.

Martin Schwidefsky 33fea794b9 [S390] etr: fix clock synchronization race
The etr events switch-to-local and sync-check disable the synchronous clock
and schedule a work queue that tries to get the clock back into sync.
If another switch-to-local or sync-check event occurs while the work queue
function etr_work_fn still runs the eacr.es bit and the clock_sync_word can
become inconsistent because check_sync_clock only uses the clock_sync_word
to determine if the clock is in sync or not. The second pass of the
etr_work_fn will reset the eacr.es bit but will leave the clock_sync_word
intact. Fix this race by moving the reset of the eacr.es bit into the
switch-to-local and sync-check functions and by checking the eacr.es bit
as well to decide if the clock needs to be synced.

Eric Dumazet 28172739f0 net: fix 64 bit counters on 32 bit arches
There is a small possibility that a reader gets incorrect values on 32
bit arches. SNMP applications could catch incorrect counters when a
32bit high part is changed by another stats consumer/provider.

One way to solve this is to add a rtnl_link_stats64 param to all
ndo_get_stats64() methods, and also add such a parameter to
dev_get_stats().

Rule is that we are not allowed to use dev->stats64 as a temporary
storage for 64bit stats, but a caller provided area (usually on stack)

Old drivers (only providing get_stats() method) need no changes.

FUJITA Tomonori 204f3a0444 asm-generic: remove ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD in scatterlist.h
This is the first half of the attempt to use asm-generic/scatterlist.h
on every architecture.

There are only two ways to define scatterlist structure. So it's easy
to convert every architecture to use asm-generic/scatterlist.h.

This patch:

The trick for ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD in asm-generic/scatterlist.h doesn't work
for powerpc.  This lets architectures defin ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD.

Hopefully, we can remove ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD in the future; we can do better
to decide if the bouncing is necessary or not.

some header files bend backwards to get at the current endian.  Lets
#define __BYTE_ORDER in big_endian.h/litte_endian.h to make it easier for
header files that are used in user space too.

In userspace the convention is that

  1. _both_ __LITTLE_ENDIAN and __BIG_ENDIAN are defined,
  2. you have to test for e.g. __BYTE_ORDER == __BIG_ENDIAN.

Ben Hutchings b2be05273a panic: Allow warnings to set different taint flags
WARN() is used in some places to report firmware or hardware bugs that
are then worked-around.  These bugs do not affect the stability of the
kernel and should not set the flag for TAINT_WARN.  To allow for this,
add WARN_TAINT() and WARN_TAINT_ONCE() macros that take a taint number
as argument.

Architectures that implement warnings using trap instructions instead
of calls to warn_slowpath_*() now implement __WARN_TAINT(taint)
instead of __WARN().

Heiko Carstens ab3c68ee5f [S390] debug: enable exception-trace debug facility
The exception-trace facility on x86 and other architectures prints
traces to dmesg whenever a user space application crashes.
s390 has such a feature since ages however it is called
userprocess_debug and is enabled differently.
This patch makes sure that whenever one of the two procfs files

/proc/sys/kernel/userprocess_debug
/proc/sys/debug/exception-trace

is modified the contents of the second one changes as well.
That way we keep backwards compatibilty but also support the same

Besides that the output of the traces is improved since it will now
also contain the corresponding filename of the vma (when available)

Martin Schwidefsky 6377981faf [S390] idle time accounting vs. machine checks
A machine check can interrupt the i/o and external interrupt handler
anytime. If the machine check occurs while the interrupt handler is
waking up from idle vtime_start_cpu can get executed a second time
and the int_clock / async_enter_timer values in the lowcore get
clobbered. This can confuse the cpu time accounting.
To fix this problem two changes are needed. First the machine check
handler has to use its own copies of int_clock and async_enter_timer,
named mcck_clock and mcck_enter_timer. Second the nested execution
of vtime_start_cpu has to be prevented. This is done in s390_idle_check
by checking the wait bit in the program status word.

Tejun Heo 3fc1f1e27a stop_machine: reimplement using cpu_stop
Reimplement stop_machine using cpu_stop.  As cpu stoppers are
guaranteed to be available for all online cpus,
stop_machine_create/destroy() are no longer necessary and removed.

With resource management and synchronization handled by cpu_stop, the
new implementation is much simpler.  Asking the cpu_stop to execute
the stop_cpu() state machine on all online cpus with cpu hotplug
disabled is enough.

stop_machine itself doesn't need to manage any global resources
anymore, so all per-instance information is rolled into struct
stop_machine_data and the mutex and all static data variables are
removed.

The previous implementation created and destroyed RT workqueues as
necessary which made stop_machine() calls highly expensive on very
large machines.  According to Dimitri Sivanich, preventing the dynamic
creation/destruction makes booting faster more than twice on very
large machines.  cpu_stop resources are preallocated for all online
cpus and should have the same effect.

Commit "timekeeping: Fix clock_gettime vsyscall time warp" (0696b711e)

contains the internal NTP adjusted clock multiplier.

The s390x vdso did not use this adjusted multiplier.  Instead, it used
the constant clock multiplier for gettimeofday() and clock_gettime()
variants.  This may result in observable time warps as explained in
commit 0696b711e.

Make the NTP adjusted clock multiplier available to the s390x vdso

where we modify user memory with the kernel mapping instead of the
user mapping.
Instead of fixing these cases, this patch just deactivates change bit
override to avoid future problems with other kernel code that might

cleanup code will move the return psw to io_work_loop. By doing that
the switch from the asynchronous interrupt stack to the process stack
is skipped. If e.g. TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set things break because
the scheduler is called with the asynchronous interrupts stack.
Moving the psw back to io_return instead fixes the problem.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

commit 024914477e "memcg: move charges of anonymous

It turned out that commit 987bcdacb1 ([S390] use

Michael Holzheu 92fe31329c [S390] zcore: CPU registers are not saved under LPAR
To save the registers for all CPUs a sigp "store status" is done that
stores the registers to address absolute zero. To access storage at
absolute zero, normally the address of the prefix register of the
accessing CPU has to be used. This does not work when large pages are
active (currently only under LPAR). In order to fix that problem,
instead of memcpy memcpy_real is used, which switches to real mode
where prefixing works.

Christoph Hellwig dacbe41f77 ptrace: move user_enable_single_step & co prototypes to linux/ptrace.h
While in theory user_enable_single_step/user_disable_single_step/
user_enable_blockstep could also be provided as an inline or macro there's
no good reason to do so, and having the prototype in one places keeps code
size and confusion down.

Roland said:

  The original thought there was that user_enable_single_step() et al
  might well be only an instruction or three on a sane machine (as if we
  have any of those!), and since there is only one call site inlining
  would be beneficial.  But I agree that there is no strong reason to care
  about inlining it.

  As to the arch changes, there is only one thought I'd add to the
  record.  It was always my thinking that for an arch where
  PTRACE_SINGLESTEP does text-modifying breakpoint insertion,
  user_enable_single_step() should not be provided.  That is,
  arch_has_single_step()=>true means that there is an arch facility with
  "pure" semantics that does not have any unexpected side effects.
  Inserting a breakpoint might do very unexpected strange things in
  multi-threaded situations.  Aside from that, it is a peculiar side
  effect that user_{enable,disable}_single_step() should cause COW
  de-sharing of text pages and so forth.  For PTRACE_SINGLESTEP, all these
  peculiarities are the status quo ante for that arch, so having
  arch_ptrace() itself do those is one thing.  But for building other
  things in the future, it is nicer to have a uniform "pure" semantics
  that arch-independent code can expect.

  OTOH, all such arch issues are really up to the arch maintainer.  As
  of today, there is nothing but ptrace using user_enable_single_step() et
  al so it's a distinction without a practical difference.  If/when there
  are other facilities that use user_enable_single_step() and might care,
  the affected arch's can revisit the question when someone cares about
  the quality of the arch support for said new facility.

Christoph Hellwig baed7fc9b5 Add generic sys_ipc wrapper
Add a generic implementation of the ipc demultiplexer syscall.  Except for
s390 and sparc64 all implementations of the sys_ipc are nearly identical.

There are slight differences in the types of the parameters, where mips
and powerpc as the only 64-bit architectures with sys_ipc use unsigned
long for the "third" argument as it gets casted to a pointer later, while
it traditionally is an "int" like most other paramters.  frv goes even
further and uses unsigned long for all parameters execept for "ptr" which
is a pointer type everywhere.  The change from int to unsigned long for
"third" and back to "int" for the others on frv should be fine due to the
in-register calling conventions for syscalls (we already had a similar
issue with the generic sys_ptrace), but I'd prefer to have the arch
maintainers looks over this in details.

Except for that h8300, m68k and m68knommu lack an impplementation of the
semtimedop sub call which this patch adds, and various architectures have
gets used - at least on i386 it seems superflous as the compat code on
x86-64 and ia64 doesn't even bother to implement it.

Passing the attribute to the low level IO functions allows all kinds
of cleanups, by sharing low level IO code without requiring
an own function for every piece of data.

Also drivers can extend the attributes with own data fields
and use that in the low level function.

Similar to sysdev_attributes and normal attributes.

This is a tree-wide sweep, converting everything in one go.

No functional changes in this patch other than passing the new
argument everywhere.

Sebastian Ott b4563e891a [S390] cio: wait for channel report
To fetch a pending channel report word (crw) we use a kernel
thread which triggers stcrw and sleeps on a semaphore. The s390
machine check handler uses crw_handle_channel_report to handle
one crw if needed.

This patch replaces the semaphore with a waitqueue (to block the
kernel thread) and an atomic_t (to count the number of pending
requests).

By this we achieve the ability to force this thread to check for
a pending crw (independent on when it is triggered by the machine
check handler) and wait for this action to finish.

Russell King 4b3073e1c5 MM: Pass a PTE pointer to update_mmu_cache() rather than the PTE itself
On VIVT ARM, when we have multiple shared mappings of the same file
in the same MM, we need to ensure that we have coherency across all
copies.  We do this via make_coherent() by making the pages
uncacheable.

This used to work fine, until we allowed highmem with highpte - we
now have a page table which is mapped as required, and is not available
for modification via update_mmu_cache().

Ralf Beache suggested getting rid of the PTE value passed to
update_mmu_cache():

  On MIPS update_mmu_cache() calls __update_tlb() which walks pagetables
  to construct a pointer to the pte again.  Passing a pte_t * is much
  more elegant.  Maybe we might even replace the pte argument with the
  pte_t?

Ben Herrenschmidt would also like the pte pointer for PowerPC:

  Passing the ptep in there is exactly what I want.  I want that
  -instead- of the PTE value, because I have issue on some ppc cases,
  for I$/D$ coherency, where set_pte_at() may decide to mask out the
  _PAGE_EXEC.

So, pass in the mapped page table pointer into update_mmu_cache(), and
remove the PTE value, updating all implementations and call sites to
suit.

Includes a fix from Stephen Rothwell:

Also fix up the copyright line and remove the superfluous __KERNEL__
ifdef.

Christian Borntraeger 062d5e9b0d KVM: S390: fix potential array overrun in intercept handling
kvm_handle_sie_intercept uses a jump table to get the intercept handler
for a SIE intercept. Static code analysis revealed a potential problem:
the intercept_funcs jump table was defined to contain (0x48 >> 2) entries,
but we only checked for code > 0x48 which would cause an off-by-one
array overflow if code == 0x48.

Use the compiler and ARRAY_SIZE to automatically set the limits.

Michael S. Tsirkin 3a4d5c94e9 vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server
What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce
the number of system calls involved in virtio networking.
Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification.

There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope
- uses eventfd for signalling
- structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for
  migration, bug work-arounds in userspace)
- write logging is supported (good for migration)
- support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm)

common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and
can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear.  I used
Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied
me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself.

What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system
call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls.
Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm.

How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by
userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap
device.  Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac
etc.

Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes.
Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to
4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU
utilization.

Features that I plan to look at in the future:
- mergeable buffers
- zero copy
- scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use

Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near
private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU):
what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a
workqueue item.  The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of
execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of
execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by
flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply
some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to
INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.

Heiko Carstens 94e587f61e [S390] unwire sys_recvmmsg again
sys_recvmmsg is reachable via sys_socketcall. So unwire it again since
there is no point in having two entry points for it.
Also put it to the ignore list so we don't get reminded anymore in order
to wire it up.

smp_processor_id() is supposed to work before setup_arch() gets called.
Before that smp_processor_id() may return just an arbitrary value that

So provide the arch function which will override the weak function in
