      Pull workqueue fix from Tejun Heo:
       "So, it turns out we had a silly bug in the most fundamental part of
        workqueue for a very long time.  AFAICS, this dates back to pre-git
        era and has quite likely been there from the time workqueue was first
        introduced.
      
        A work item uses its PENDING bit to synchronize multiple queuers.
        Anyone who wins the PENDING bit owns the pending state of the work
        item.  Whether a queuer wins or loses the race, one thing should be
        guaranteed - there will soon be at least one execution of the work
        item - where "after" means that the execution instance would be able
        to see all the changes that the queuer has made prior to the queueing
        attempt.
      
        Unfortunately, we were missing a smp_mb() after clearing PENDING for
        execution, so nothing guaranteed visibility of the changes that a
        queueing loser has made, which manifested as a reproducible blk-mq
        stall.
      
        Lots of kudos to Roman for debugging the problem.  The patch for
        -stable is the minimal one.  For v3.7, Peter is working on a patch to
        make the code path slightly more efficient and less fragile"

      Pull cgroup fixes from Tejun Heo:
       "Two patches to fix a deadlock which can be easily triggered if memcg
        charge moving is used.
      
        This bug was introduced while converting threadgroup locking to a
        global percpu_rwsem and is caused by cgroup controller task migration
        path depending on the ability to create new kthreads.  cpuset had a
        similar issue which was fixed by performing heavy-lifting operations
        asynchronous to task migration.  The two patches fix the same issue in
        memcg in a similar way.  The first patch makes the mechanism generic
        and the second relocates memcg charge moving outside the migration
        path.
      
        Given that we don't want to perform heavy operations while
        writelocking threadgroup lock anyway, moving them out of the way is a
        desirable solution.  One thing to note is that the problem was
        difficult to debug because lockdep couldn't figure out the deadlock
        condition.  Looking into how to improve that"

      nios2: memset: use the right constraint modifier for the %4 output operand · a8950e49
      Romain Perier authored
      Depending on the size of the area to be memset'ed, the nios2 memset implementation
      either uses a naive loop (for buffers smaller or equal than 8 bytes) or a more optimized
      implementation (for buffers larger than 8 bytes). This implementation does 4-byte stores
      rather than 1-byte stores to speed up memset.
      
      However, we discovered that on our nios2 platform, memset() was not properly setting the
      buffer to the expected value. A memset of 0xff would not set the entire buffer to 0xff, but to:
      
      0xff 0x00 0xff 0x00 0xff 0x00 0xff 0x00 ...
      
      Which is obviously incorrect. Our investigation has revealed that the problem lies in the
      incorrect constraints used in the inline assembly.
      
      The following piece of assembly, from the nios2 memset implementation, is supposed to
      create a 4-byte value that repeats 4 times the 1-byte pattern passed as memset argument:
      
      /* fill8 %3, %5 (c & 0xff) */
      "       slli    %4, %5, 8\n"
      "       or      %4, %4, %5\n"
      "       slli    %3, %4, 16\n"
      "       or      %3, %3, %4\n"
      
      However, depending on the compiler and optimization level, this code might be compiled as:
      
      34:	280a923a 	slli	r5,r5,8
      38:	294ab03a 	or	r5,r5,r5
      3c:	2808943a 	slli	r4,r5,16
      40:	2148b03a 	or	r4,r4,r5
      
      This is wrong because r5 gets used both for %5 and %4, which leads to the final pattern
      stored in r4 to be 0xff00ff00 rather than the expected 0xffffffff.
      
      %4 is defined with the "=r" constraint, i.e as an output operand. However, as explained in
      http://www.ethernut.de/en/documents/arm-inline-asm.html, this does not prevent gcc from
      using the same register for an output operand (%4) and input operand (%5). By using the
      constraint modifier '&', we indicate that the register should be used for output only. With this
      change, we get the following assembly output:
      
      34:	2810923a 	slli	r8,r5,8
      38:	4150b03a 	or	r8,r8,r5
      3c:	400e943a 	slli	r7,r8,16
      40:	3a0eb03a 	or	r7,r7,r8
      
      Which correctly produces the 0xffffffff pattern when 0xff is passed as the memset() pattern.
      
      It is worth mentioning the observed consequence of this bug: we were hitting the kernel
      BUG() in mm/bootmem.c:__free() that verifies when marking a page as free that it was
      previously marked as occupied (i.e that the bit was set to 1). The entire bootmem bitmap is
      set to 0xff bit via a memset() during the bootmem initialization. The bootmem_free() call right
      after the initialization was finding some bits to be set to 0, which didn't make sense since the
      bitmap has just been memset'ed to 0xff. Except that due to the bug explained above, the
      bitmap was in fact initialized to 0xff00ff00.
      
      Thanks to Marek Vasut for his help and feedback.

        every change separately here.
      
        Regressions since 4.5:
      
         - A correction of the psci firmware DT binding, to prevent users from
           relying on unintended semantics
      
         - Actually getting the newly merged clock driver for some OMAP
           platforms to work
      
         - A revert of patches for the Qualcomm BAM, these need to be reworked
           for 4.7 to avoid breaking boards other than the one they were
           intended for
      
         - A correction for the I2C device nodes on the Socionext Uniphier
           platform
      
         - i.MX SDHCI was broken for non-DT platforms due to a change with the
           setting of the DMA mask
      
         - A revert of a patch that accidentally added a nonexisting clock on
           the Rensas "Porter" board
      
         - A couple of OMAP fixes that are all related to suspend after the
           power domain changes for dra7
      
         - On Mediatek, revert part of the power domain initialization changes
           that broke mt8173-evb
      
        Fixes for older bugs:
      
         - Workaround for an "external abort" in the omap34xx suspend/resume
           code.
      
         - The USB1/eSATA should not be listed as an excon device on
           am57xx-beagle-x15 (broken since v4.0)
      
         - A v4.5 regression in the TI AM33xx and AM43XX DT specifying
           incorrect DMA request lines for the GPMC
      
         - The jiffies calibration on Renesas platforms was incorrect for some
           modern CPU cores.
      
         - A hardware errata woraround for clockdomains on TI DRA7"

      devpts: more pty driver interface cleanups · 8ead9dd5
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This is more prep-work for the upcoming pty changes.  Still just code
      cleanup with no actual semantic changes.
      
      This removes a bunch pointless complexity by just having the slave pty
      side remember the dentry associated with the devpts slave rather than
      the inode.  That allows us to remove all the "look up the dentry" code
      for when we want to remove it again.
      
      Together with moving the tty pointer from "inode->i_private" to
      "dentry->d_fsdata" and getting rid of pointless inode locking, this
      removes about 30 lines of code.  Not only is the end result smaller,
      it's simpler and easier to understand.
      
      The old code, for example, depended on the d_find_alias() to not just
      find the dentry, but also to check that it is still hashed, which in
      turn validated the tty pointer in the inode.
      
      That is a _very_ roundabout way to say "invalidate the cached tty
      pointer when the dentry is removed".
      
      The new code just does
      
      	dentry->d_fsdata = NULL;
      
      in devpts_pty_kill() instead, invalidating the tty pointer rather more
      directly and obviously.  Don't do something complex and subtle when the
      obvious straightforward approach will do.
      
      The rest of the patch (ie apart from code deletion and the above tty
      pointer clearing) is just switching the calling convention to pass the
      dentry or file pointer around instead of the inode.

      bpf: fix double-fdput in replace_map_fd_with_map_ptr() · 8358b02b
      Jann Horn authored
      When bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD, ...) was invoked with a BPF program whose bytecode
      references a non-map file descriptor as a map file descriptor, the error
      handling code called fdput() twice instead of once (in __bpf_map_get() and
      in replace_map_fd_with_map_ptr()). If the file descriptor table of the
      current task is shared, this causes f_count to be decremented too much,
      allowing the struct file to be freed while it is still in use
      (use-after-free). This can be exploited to gain root privileges by an
      unprivileged user.
      
      This bug was introduced in
      commit 0246e64d ("bpf: handle pseudo BPF_LD_IMM64 insn"), but is only
      exploitable since
      commit 1be7f75d ("bpf: enable non-root eBPF programs") because
      previously, CAP_SYS_ADMIN was required to reach the vulnerable code.

      net: ipv6: Delete host routes on an ifdown · 38bd10c4
      David Ahern authored
      It was a simple idea -- save IPv6 configured addresses on a link down
      so that IPv6 behaves similar to IPv4. As always the devil is in the
      details and the IPv6 stack as too many behavioral differences from IPv4
      making the simple idea more complicated than it needs to be.
      
      The current implementation for keeping IPv6 addresses can panic or spit
      out a warning in one of many paths:
      
      1. IPv6 route gets an IPv4 route as its 'next' which causes a panic in
         rt6_fill_node while handling a route dump request.
      
      2. rt->dst.obsolete is set to DST_OBSOLETE_DEAD hitting the WARN_ON in
         fib6_del
      
      3. Panic in fib6_purge_rt because rt6i_ref count is not 1.
      
      The root cause of all these is references related to the host route for
      an address that is retained.
      
      So, this patch deletes the host route every time the ifdown loop runs.
      Since the host route is deleted and will be re-generated an up there is
      no longer a need for the l3mdev fix up. On the 'admin up' side move
      addrconf_permanent_addr into the NETDEV_UP event handling so that it
      runs only once versus on UP and CHANGE events.
      
      All of the current panics and warnings appear to be related to
      addresses on the loopback device, but given the catastrophic nature when
      a bug is triggered this patch takes the conservative approach and evicts
      all host routes rather than trying to determine when it can be re-used
      and when it can not. That can be a later optimizaton if desired.

      The underlying device is a null_blk, with default parameters:
      
        queue_mode    = MQ
        submit_queues = 1
      
      Verification that nullb0 has something inflight:
      
      root@pserver8:~# cat /sys/block/nullb0/inflight
             0        1
      root@pserver8:~# find /sys/block/nullb0/mq/0/cpu* -name rq_list -print -exec cat {} \;
      ...
      /sys/block/nullb0/mq/0/cpu2/rq_list
      CTX pending:
              ffff8838038e2400
      ...
      
      During debug it became clear that stalled request is always inserted in
      the rq_list from the following path:
      
         save_stack_trace_tsk + 34
         blk_mq_insert_requests + 231
         blk_mq_flush_plug_list + 281
         blk_flush_plug_list + 199
         wait_on_page_bit + 192
         __filemap_fdatawait_range + 228
         filemap_fdatawait_range + 20
         filemap_write_and_wait_range + 63
         blkdev_fsync + 27
         vfs_fsync_range + 73
         blkdev_write_iter + 202
         __vfs_write + 170
         vfs_write + 169
         kernel_write + 56
      
      So blk_flush_plug_list() was called with from_schedule == true.
      
      If from_schedule is true, that means that finally blk_mq_insert_requests()
      offloads execution of __blk_mq_run_hw_queue() and uses kblockd workqueue,
      i.e. it calls kblockd_schedule_delayed_work_on().
      
      That means, that we race with another CPU, which is about to execute
      __blk_mq_run_hw_queue() work.
      
      Further debugging shows the following traces from different CPUs:
      
        CPU#0                                  CPU#1
        ----------------------------------     -------------------------------
        reqeust A inserted
        STORE hctx->ctx_map[0] bit marked
        kblockd_schedule...() returns 1
        <schedule to kblockd workqueue>
                                               request B inserted
                                               STORE hctx->ctx_map[1] bit marked
                                               kblockd_schedule...() returns 0
        *** WORK PENDING bit is cleared ***
        flush_busy_ctxs() is executed, but
        bit 1, set by CPU#1, is not observed
      
      As a result request B pended forever.
      
      This behaviour can be explained by speculative LOAD of hctx->ctx_map on
      CPU#0, which is reordered with clear of PENDING bit and executed _before_
      actual STORE of bit 1 on CPU#1.
      
      The proper fix is an explicit full barrier <mfence>, which guarantees
      that clear of PENDING bit is to be executed before all possible
      speculative LOADS or STORES inside actual work function.

      drivers: firmware: psci: unify enable-method binding on ARM {64,32}-bit systems · 978fa436
      Sudeep Holla authored
      Currently ARM CPUs DT bindings allows different enable-method value for
      PSCI based systems. On ARM 64-bit this property is required and must be
      "psci" while on ARM 32-bit systems this property is optional and must
      be "arm,psci" if present.
      
      However, "arm,psci" has always been the compatible string for the PSCI
      node, and was never intended to be the enable-method. So this is a bug
      in the binding and not a deliberate attempt at specifying 32-bit
      differently.
      
      This is problematic if 32-bit OS is run on 64-bit system which has
      "psci" as enable-method rather than the expected "arm,psci".
      
      So let's unify the value into "psci" and remove support for "arm,psci"
      before it finds any users.

      This patch introduces kexec support for mlx5.

      the driver and cleans its resources.
      
      In addition, remove unregister netdev from shutdown flow. This will
      allow a clean shutdown, even if some netdev clients did not release their
      reference from this netdev. Releasing The HW resources only is enough as
      the kernel is shutting down

      Set and report vport MTU rather than physical MTU,
      Driver will set both vport and physical port mtu and will
      rely on the query of vport mtu.
      
      SRIOV VFs have to report their MTU to their vport manager (PF),
      and this will allow them to work with any MTU they need
      without failing the request.
      
      Also for some cases where the PF is not a port owner, PF can
      work with MTU less than the physical port mtu if set physical
      port mtu didn't take effect.

      net: stmmac: socfpga: Remove re-registration of reset controller · 3c201b5a
      Marek Vasut authored
      Both socfpga_dwmac_parse_data() in dwmac-socfpga.c and stmmac_dvr_probe()
      in stmmac_main.c functions call devm_reset_control_get() to register an
      reset controller for the stmmac. This results in an attempt to register
      two reset controllers for the same non-shared reset line.
      
      The first attempt to register the reset controller works fine. The second
      attempt fails with warning from the reset controller core, see below.
      The warning is produced because the reset line is non-shared and thus
      it is allowed to have only up-to one reset controller associated with
      that reset line, not two or more.
      
      The solution has multiple parts. First, the original socfpga_dwmac_init()
      is tweaked to use reset controller pointer from the stmmac_priv (private
      data of the stmmac core) instead of the local instance, which was used
      before. The local re-registration of the reset controller is removed.
      
      Next, the socfpga_dwmac_init() is moved after stmmac_dvr_probe() in the
      probe function. This order is legal according to Altera and it makes the
      code much easier, since there is no need to temporarily register and
      unregister the reset controller ; the reset controller is already registered
      by the stmmac_dvr_probe().
      
      Finally, plat_dat->exit and socfpga_dwmac_exit() is no longer necessary,
      since the functionality is already performed by the stmmac core.
