      arm64: readahead: fault retry breaks mmap file read random detection · 569ba74a
      Mark Salyzyn authored
      This is the arm64 portion of commit 45cac65b ("readahead: fault
      retry breaks mmap file read random detection"), which was absent from
      the initial port and has since gone unnoticed. The original commit says:
      
      > .fault now can retry.  The retry can break state machine of .fault.  In
      > filemap_fault, if page is miss, ra->mmap_miss is increased.  In the second
      > try, since the page is in page cache now, ra->mmap_miss is decreased.  And
      > these are done in one fault, so we can't detect random mmap file access.
      >
      > Add a new flag to indicate .fault is tried once.  In the second try, skip
      > ra->mmap_miss decreasing.  The filemap_fault state machine is ok with it.
      
      With this change, Mark reports that:
      
      > Random read improves by 250%, sequential read improves by 40%, and
      > random write by 400% to an eMMC device with dm crypto wrapped around it.

      Merge branch 'strscpy' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile · 30c44659
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull strscpy string copy function implementation from Chris Metcalf.
      
      Chris sent this during the merge window, but I waffled back and forth on
      the pull request, which is why it's going in only now.
      
      The new "strscpy()" function is definitely easier to use and more secure
      than either strncpy() or strlcpy(), both of which are horrible nasty
      interfaces that have serious and irredeemable problems.
      
      strncpy() has a useless return value, and doesn't NUL-terminate an
      overlong result.  To make matters worse, it pads a short result with
      zeroes, which is a performance disaster if you have big buffers.
      
      strlcpy(), by contrast, is a mis-designed "fix" for strlcpy(), lacking
      the insane NUL padding, but having a differently broken return value
      which returns the original length of the source string.  Which means
      that it will read characters past the count from the source buffer, and
      you have to trust the source to be properly terminated.  It also makes
      error handling fragile, since the test for overflow is unnecessarily
      subtle.
      
      strscpy() avoids both these problems, guaranteeing the NUL termination
      (but not excessive padding) if the destination size wasn't zero, and
      making the overflow condition very obvious by returning -E2BIG.  It also
      doesn't read past the size of the source, and can thus be used for
      untrusted source data too.
      
      So why did I waffle about this for so long?
      
      Every time we introduce a new-and-improved interface, people start doing
      these interminable series of trivial conversion patches.
      
      And every time that happens, somebody does some silly mistake, and the
      conversion patch to the improved interface actually makes things worse.
      Because the patch is mindnumbing and trivial, nobody has the attention
      span to look at it carefully, and it's usually done over large swatches
      of source code which means that not every conversion gets tested.
      
      So I'm pulling the strscpy() support because it *is* a better interface.
      But I will refuse to pull mindless conversion patches.  Use this in
      places where it makes sense, but don't do trivial patches to fix things
      that aren't actually known to be broken.
      
      * 'strscpy' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile:
        tile: use global strscpy() rather than private copy
        string: provide strscpy()
        Make asm/word-at-a-time.h available on all architectures

      MIPS: scall: Always run the seccomp syscall filters · d218af78
      Markos Chandras authored
      The MIPS syscall handler code used to return -ENOSYS on invalid
      syscalls. Whilst this is expected, it caused problems for seccomp
      filters because the said filters never had the change to run since
      the code returned -ENOSYS before triggering them. This caused
      problems on the chromium testsuite for filters looking for invalid
      syscalls. This has now changed and the seccomp filters are always
      run even if the syscall is invalid. We return -ENOSYS once we
      return from the seccomp filters. Moreover, similar codepaths have
      been merged in the process which simplifies somewhat the overall
      syscall code.
