This is conceptually simpler. More importantly, it eliminates the PTREGSCALL and execve stubs, which were not compatible with the C ABI. This means that C code can call through the compat syscall table. The execve stubs are a bit subtle. They did two things: they cleared some registers and they forced slow-path return. Neither is necessary any more: elf_common_init clears the extra registers and start_thread calls force_iret().

We now have only one code path that calls through the compat syscall table. This will make it much more pleasant to change the pt_regs vs register calling convention, which we need to do to move the call into C.

The goal is to integrate the SYSENTER and SYSCALL32 entry paths with the INT80 path. SYSENTER clobbers ESP and EIP. SYSCALL32 clobbers ECX (and, invisibly, R11). SYSRETL (long mode to compat mode) clobbers ECX and, invisibly, R11. SYSEXIT (which we only need for native 32-bit) clobbers ECX and EDX. This means that we'll need to provide ESP to the kernel in a register (I chose ECX, since it's only needed for SYSENTER) and we need to provide the args that normally live in ECX and EDX in memory. The epilogue needs to restore ECX and EDX, since user code relies on regs being preserved. We don't need to do anything special about EIP, since the kernel already knows where we are. The kernel will eventually need to know where int $0x80 lands, so add a vdso_image entry for it. The only user-visible effect of this code is that ptrace-induced changes to ECX and EDX during fast syscalls will be lost. This is already the case for the SYSENTER path.

Maintaining the current CFI annotations written in R'lyehian is difficult for most of us. Translate them to something a little closer to English. This will remove the CFI data for kernels built with extremely old versions of binutils. I think this is a fair tradeoff for the ability for mortals to edit the asm.

While the kernel itself doesn't use DWARF unwinding, user code expects to be able to unwind the vDSO. The vsyscall (AT_SYSINFO) entry is manually CFI-annotated, and this tests that it unwinds correctly. I tested the test by incorrectly annotating __kernel_vsyscall, and the test indeed fails if I do that.

Linus Torvalds authored
This reverts commit 998ef75d. The commit itself does not appear to be buggy per se, but it is exposing a bug in ext4 (and Ted thinks ext3 too, but we solved that by getting rid of it). It's too late in the release cycle to really worry about this, even if Dave Hansen has a patch that may actually fix the underlying ext4 problem. We can (and should) revisit this for the next release. The problem is that moving the prefaulting later now exposes a special case with partially successful writes that isn't handled correctly. And the prefaulting likely isn't normally even that much of a performance issue - it looks like at least one reason Dave saw this in his performance tests is that he also ran them on Skylake that now supports the new SMAP code, which makes the normally very cheap user space prefaulting noticeably more expensive.

With commit 633d6f17 (x86/xen: prepare p2m list for memory hotplug) the P2M may be sized to accomdate a much larger amount of memory than the domain currently has. When saving a domain, the toolstack must scan all the P2M looking for populated pages. This results in a performance regression due to the unnecessary scanning. Instead of reporting (via shared_info) the maximum possible size of the P2M, hint at the last PFN which might be populated. This hint is increased as new leaves are added to the P2M (in the expectation that they will be used for populated entries).

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

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.

This patch fixes one cases where abs() was being used with 64-bit nanosecond values, where the result may be capped at 32-bits. This potentially could cause watchdog false negatives on 32-bit systems, so this patch addresses the issue by using abs64().

When the client goes to return a delegation, it should always update any nfs4_state currently set up to use that delegation stateid to instead use the open stateid. It already does do this in some cases, particularly in the state recovery code, but not currently when the delegation is voluntarily returned (e.g. in advance of a RENAME). This causes the client to try to continue using the delegation stateid after the DELEGRETURN, e.g. in LAYOUTGET. Set the nfs4_state back to using the open stateid in nfs4_open_delegation_recall, just before clearing the NFS_DELEGATED_STATE bit.
