Pull file locking update from Jeff Layton:
"A couple of fixes for a patch that went into v4.14, and the bug report
just came in a few days ago.. It passes my (minimal) testing, and has
been in linux-next for a few days now.
I also would like to get my address changed in MAINTAINERS to clear
that hurdle"

fcntl: don't cap l_start and l_end values for F_GETLK64 in compat syscall
fcntl: don't leak fd reference when fixup_compat_flock fails

Currently, we're capping the values too low in the F_GETLK64 case. The
fields in that structure are 64-bit values, so we shouldn't need to do
any sort of fixup there.
Make sure we check that assumption at build time in the future however
by ensuring that the sizes we're copying will fit.
With this, we no longer need COMPAT_LOFF_T_MAX either, so remove it.
Fixes: 94073ad77fff2 (fs/locks: don't mess with the address limit in compat_fcntl64)

On a machine with 5-level paging support a process can allocate
significant amount of memory and stay unnoticed by oom-killer and memory
cgroup. The trick is to allocate a lot of PUD page tables. We don't
account PUD page tables, only PMD and PTE.
We already addressed the same issue for PMD page tables, see commit
dc6c9a35b66b ("mm: account pmd page tables to the process").
Introduction of 5-level paging brings the same issue for PUD page
tables.
The patch expands accounting to PUD level.

After we removed all the dead wood it turns out only two architectures
actually implement dma_cache_sync as a real op: mips and parisc. Add
a cache_sync method to struct dma_map_ops and implement it for the
mips defualt DMA ops, and the parisc pa11 ops.
Note that arm, arc and openrisc support DMA_ATTR_NON_CONSISTENT, but
never provided a functional dma_cache_sync implementations, which
seems somewhat odd.

Pull core locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle are:
- Another attempt at enabling cross-release lockdep dependency
tracking (automatically part of CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y), this time
with better performance and fewer false positives. (Byungchul Park)
- Introduce lockdep_assert_irqs_enabled()/disabled() and convert
open-coded equivalents to lockdep variants. (Frederic Weisbecker)
- Add down_read_killable() and use it in the VFS's iterate_dir()
method. (Kirill Tkhai)
- Convert remaining uses of ACCESS_ONCE() to
READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE(). Most of the conversion was Coccinelle
driven. (Mark Rutland, Paul E. McKenney)
- Get rid of lockless_dereference(), by strengthening Alpha atomics,
strengthening READ_ONCE() with smp_read_barrier_depends() and thus
being able to convert users of lockless_dereference() to
READ_ONCE(). (Will Deacon)
- Various micro-optimizations:
- better PV qspinlocks (Waiman Long),
- better x86 barriers (Michael S. Tsirkin)
- better x86 refcounts (Kees Cook)
- ... plus other fixes and enhancements. (Borislav Petkov, Juergen

to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE()
Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the
coccinelle script shown below and apply its output.
For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in
churn.
However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to
correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write
accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining
ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following
coccinelle script:
----
// Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and
// WRITE_ONCE()
// $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch

@ depends on patch @

- ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2

The arch_{read,spin,write}_lock_flags() macros are simply mapped to the
non-flags versions by the majority of architectures, so do this in core
code and remove the dummy implementations. Also remove the implementation
in spinlock_up.h, since all callers of do_raw_spin_lock_flags() call
local_irq_save(flags) anyway.

Outside of the locking code itself, {read,spin,write}_can_lock() have no
users in tree. Apparmor (the last remaining user of write_can_lock()) got
moved over to lockdep by the previous patch.
This patch removes the use of {read,spin,write}_can_lock() from the
BUILD_LOCK_OPS macro, deferring to the trylock operation for testing the
lock status, and subsequently removes the unused macros altogether. They
aren't guaranteed to work in a concurrent environment and can give
incorrect results in the case of qrwlock.

There are several bugs with control register handling with respect to
transactional execution:
- on task switch update_per_regs() is only called if the next task has
an mm (is not a kernel thread). This however is incorrect. This
breaks e.g. for user mode helper handling, where the kernel creates
a kernel thread and then execve's a user space program. Control
register contents related to transactional execution won't be
updated on execve. If the previous task ran with transactional
execution disabled then the new task will also run with
transactional execution disabled, which is incorrect. Therefore call
update_per_regs() unconditionally within switch_to().
- on startup the transactional execution facility is not enabled for
the idle thread. This is not really a bug, but an inconsistency to
other facilities. Therefore enable the facility if it is available.
- on fork the new thread's per_flags field is not cleared. This means
that a child process inherits the PER_FLAG_NO_TE flag. This flag can
be set with a ptrace request to disable transactional execution for
the current process. It should not be inherited by new child
processes in order to be consistent with the handling of all other
PER related debugging options. Therefore clear the per_flags field in
copy_thread_tls().

The current way of adding new instructions to the opcode tables is
painful and error prone. Therefore add, similar to binutils, a text
file which contains all opcodes and the corresponding mnemonics and
instruction formats.
A small gen_opcode_table tool then generates a header file with the
required enums and opcode table initializers at the prepare step of
the kernel build.
This way only a simple text file has to be maintained, which can be
rather easily extended.
Unlike before where there were plenty of opcode tables and a large
switch statement to find the correct opcode table, there is now only
one opcode table left which contains all instructions. A second opcode
offset table now contains offsets within the opcode table to find
instructions which have the same opcode prefix. In order to save space
all 1-byte opcode instructions are grouped together at the end of the
opcode table. This is also quite similar to like it was before.
In addition also move and change code and definitions within the
disassembler. As a side effect this reduces the size required for the
code and opcode tables by ~1.5k.

Remove the support to create a z/VM named saved segment (NSS). This
feature is not supported since quite a while in favour of jump labels,
function tracing and (now) CPU alternatives. All of these features
require to write to the kernel text section which is not possible if
the kernel is contained within an NSS.
Given that memory savings are minimal if kernel images are shared and
in addition updates of shared images are painful, the NSS feature can
be removed.

The reworked version of the random device driver now calls
the arch_get_random_* functions on a very high frequency.
It does about 100.000 calls to arch_get_random_long for
providing 10 MB via /dev/urandom. Each invocation was
fetching entropy from the hardware random generator which
has a rate limit of about 4 MB/s. As the trng invocation
waits until enough entropy is gathered, the random device
driver is slowed down dramatically.
The s390 true random generator is not designed for such
a high rate. The TRNG is more designed to be used together
with the arch_get_random_seed_* functions. This is similar
to the way how powerpc has implemented their arch random
functionality.
This patch removes the invocations of the s390 TRNG for
arch_get_random_long() and arch_get_random_int() but leaving
the invocations for arch_get_random_seed_long() and
arch_get_random_seed_int(). So the s390 arch random
implementation now contributes high quality entropy to
the kernel random device for reseeding.

As of today QEMU does not provide the AIS facility to its guest. This
prevents Linux guests from using PCI devices as the ais facility is
checked during init. As this is just a performance optimization, we can
move the ais check into the code where we need it (calling the SIC
instruction). This is used at initialization and on interrupt. Both
places do not require any serialization, so we can simply skip the
instruction.
Since we will now get all interrupts, we can also avoid the 2nd scan.
As we can have multiple interrupts in parallel we might trigger spurious
irqs more often for the non-AIS case but the core code can handle that.

The validation of the CPU registers in the machine check handler is
currently split into two parts. The first part is done at the start
of the low level mcck_int_handler function, this includes the CPU
timer register and the general purpose registers.
The second part is done a bit later in s390_do_machine_check for all
the other registers, including the control registers, floating pointer
control, vector or floating pointer registers, the access registers,
the guarded storage registers, the TOD programmable registers and the
clock comparator.
This is working fine to far but in theory a future extensions could
cause the C code to use registers that are not validated yet. A better
approach is to validate all CPU registers in "safe" assembler code
before any C function is called.

The smp_send_stop() function can be called from s390_handle_damage
while DAT is off. This happens if a machine check indicates that
kernel gprs or control registers can not be restored. The function
smp_send_stop reenables DAT via __load_psw_mask. That should work
for the case of lost kernel gprs and the system will do the expected
stop of all CPUs. But if control registers are lost, in particular
CR13 with the home space ASCE, interesting secondary crashes may
occur.
Make smp_emergency_stop callable from nmi.c and remove the cpumask
argument. Replace the smp_send_stop call with smp_emergency_stop in
the s390_handle_damage function.
In addition add notrace and NOKPROBE_SYMBOL annotations for all
functions required for the emergency shutdown.

Implement CPU alternatives, which allows to optionally patch newer
instructions at runtime, based on CPU facilities availability.
A new kernel boot parameter "noaltinstr" disables patching.
Current implementation is derived from x86 alternatives. Although
ideal instructions padding (when altinstr is longer then oldinstr)
is added at compile time, and no oldinstr nops optimization has to be
done at runtime. Also couple of compile time sanity checks are done:
1. oldinstr and altinstr must be <= 254 bytes long,
2. oldinstr and altinstr must not have an odd length.
alternative(oldinstr, altinstr, facility);
alternative_2(oldinstr, altinstr1, facility1, altinstr2, facility2);
Both compile time and runtime padding consists of either 6/4/2 bytes nop
or a jump (brcl) + 2 bytes nop filler if padding is longer then 6 bytes.
.altinstructions and .altinstr_replacement sections are part of
__init_begin : __init_end region and are freed after initialization.

For an unknown reason the s390 kprobes instruction replacement
function modifies the kprobe_status of the current CPU to
KPROBE_SWAP_INST. This was supposed to catch traps that happened
during instruction patching. Such a fault is not supposed to happen,
and silently discarding such a fault is certainly also not what we
want. In fact s390 is the only architecture which has this odd piece
of code.
Just remove this and behave like all other architectures. This was
pointed out by Jens Remus.

Add a syscall of s390_sthyi to implement STHYI instruction in LPAR
which reuses the implementation for KVM by Janosch Frank -
commit 95ca2cb57985 ("KVM: s390: Add sthyi emulation").
STHYI(Store Hypervisor Information) is an emulated z/VM instruction that
provides a guest with basic information about the layers it is running
on. This includes information about the cpu configuration of both the
machine and the lpar, as well as their names, machine model and
machine type. This information enables an application to determine the
maximum capacity of CPs and IFLs available to software.
For the arguments of s390_sthyi, code shall be 0 and flags is reserved for
future use, info is the output argument to store the required hypervisor
info.

STHYI requires extensive locking in the higher hypervisors and is
very computational/memory expensive. Therefore we cache the retrieved
hypervisor info whose valid period is 1s with mutex to allow concurrent
access. rw semaphore can't benefit here due to cache line bounce.

We never optimized our rwsem inline assemblies to make use of the new
atomic instructions. The generic rwsem implementation implicitly makes
use of the new instructions, since it implements the required rwsem
primitives with atomic operations, which we did optimize.
However even when compiling for old architectures the generic variant
still generates better code. So it's time to simply remove our old
code and switch to the generic implementation.

When grouping devices, the ccwgroup core only checks whether all of the
devices are bound to the same ccw_driver. It has no means of checking
if the requesting ccwgroup driver actually supports this device type.
qeth implements its own device matching in qeth_core_probe_device(),
while ctcm and lcs currently have no sanity-checking at all.
Enable ccwgroup drivers to optionally defer the device type checking to
the ccwgroup core, by specifying their supported ccw_driver.
This allows us drop the device type matching from qeth, and improves
the robustness of ctcm and lcs.

Like the common queued rwlock code the s390 implementation uses the
queued spinlock code on a spinlock_t embedded in the rwlock_t to achieve
the queueing. The encoding of the rwlock_t differs though, the counter
field in the rwlock_t is split into two parts. The upper two bytes hold
the write bit and the write wait counter, the lower two bytes hold the
read counter.
The arch_read_lock operation works exactly like the common qrwlock but
the enqueue operation for a writer follows a diffent logic. After the
failed inline try to get the rwlock in write, the writer first increases
the write wait counter, acquires the wait spin_lock for the queueing,
and then loops until there are no readers and the write bit is zero.
Without the write wait counter a CPU that just released the rwlock
could immediately reacquire the lock in the inline code, bypassing all
outstanding read and write waiters. For s390 this would cause massive
imbalances in favour of writers in case of a contended rwlock.

The queued spinlock code for s390 follows the principles of the common
code qspinlock implementation but with a few notable differences.
The format of the spinlock_t locking word differs, s390 needs to store
the logical CPU number of the lock holder in the spinlock_t to be able
to use the diagnose 9c directed yield hypervisor call.
The inline code sequences for spin_lock and spin_unlock are nice and
short. The inline portion of a spin_lock now typically looks like this:
lhi %r0,0 # 0 indicates an empty lock
l %r1,0x3a0 # CPU number + 1 from lowcore
cs %r0,%r1,<some_lock> # lock operation
jnz call_wait # on failure call wait function
locked:
...
call_wait:
la %r2,<some_lock>
brasl %r14,arch_spin_lock_wait
j locked
A spin_unlock is as simple as before:
lhi %r0,0
sth %r0,2(%r2) # unlock operation
After a CPU has queued itself it may not enable interrupts again for the
arch_spin_lock_flags() variant. The arch_spin_lock_wait_flags wait function
is removed.
To improve performance the code implements opportunistic lock stealing.
If the wait function finds a spinlock_t that indicates that the lock is
free but there are queued waiters, the CPU may steal the lock up to three
times without queueing itself. The lock stealing update the steal counter
in the lock word to prevent more than 3 steals. The counter is reset at
the time the CPU next in the queue successfully takes the lock.
While the queued spinlocks improve performance in a system with dedicated
CPUs, in a virtualized environment with continuously overcommitted CPUs
the queued spinlocks can have a negative effect on performance. This
is due to the fact that a queued CPU that is preempted by the hypervisor
will block the queue at some point even without holding the lock. With
the classic spinlock it does not matter if a CPU is preempted that waits
for the lock. Therefore use the queued spinlock code only if the system
runs with dedicated CPUs and fall back to classic spinlocks when running
with shared CPUs.

The queued spinlock code will come out simpler if the encoding of
the CPU that holds the spinlock is (cpu+1) instead of (~cpu).
