      IB/mlx5: Fix RC transport send queue overhead computation · 75c1657e
      Leon Romanovsky authored
      Fix the RC QPs send queue overhead computation to take into account
      two additional segments in the WQE which are needed for registration
      operations.
      
      The ATOMIC and UMR segments can't coexist together, so chose maximum out
      of them.
      
      The commit 9e65dc37 ("IB/mlx5: Fix RC transport send queue overhead
      computation") was intended to update RC transport as commit messages
      states, but added the code to UC transport.

      IB/ipoib: fix for rare multicast join race condition · 08bc3276

      A narrow window for race condition still exist between
      multicast join thread and *dev_flush workers.

      Changes from v4:
      - as suggested by Doug Ledford, optimized spinlock usage,
      i.e. ipoib_mcast_join() is called with lock held.
      Changes from v3:
      - sync with priv->lock before flag check.
      Chages from v2:
      - Move check for OPER_UP flag state to mcast_join() to
      ensure no event worker is in progress.
      - minor style fixes.
      Changes from v1:
      - No need to lock again if error detected.

      The changes that got merged in this merge window for Skylake were rather
      large and as well as issues that you'd expect in a large block of new
      code there were some problems created for older processors which needed
      fixing up.  Things are largely settling down now hopefully.

      EVM: Use crypto_memneq() for digest comparisons · 613317bd
      Ryan Ware authored
      This patch fixes vulnerability CVE-2016-2085.  The problem exists
      because the vm_verify_hmac() function includes a use of memcmp().
      Unfortunately, this allows timing side channel attacks; specifically
      a MAC forgery complexity drop from 2^128 to 2^12.  This patch changes
      the memcmp() to the cryptographically safe crypto_memneq().

      ARC: mm: Introduce explicit super page size support · 37eda9df
      Vineet Gupta authored
      MMUv4 supports 2 concurrent page sizes: Normal and Super [4K to 16M]
      
      So far Linux supported a single super page size for a given Normal page,
      depending on the software page walking address split.
      e.g. we had 11:8:13 address split for 8K page, which meant super page
      was 2 ^(8+13) = 2M (given that THP size has to be PMD_SHIFT)
      
      Now we turn this around, by allowing multiple Super Pages in Kconfig
      (currently 2M and 16M only) and forcing page walker address split to
      PGDIR_SHIFT and PAGE_SHIFT
      
      For configs without Super page, things are same as before and
      PGDIR_SHIFT can be hacked to get non default address split
      
      The motivation for this change is a customer who needs 16M super page
      and a 8K Normal page combo.

      mm: fix pfn_t vs highmem · db78c222
      Dan Williams authored
      The pfn_t type uses an unsigned long to store a pfn + flags value.  On a
      64-bit platform the upper 12 bits of an unsigned long are never used for
      storing the value of a pfn.  However, this is not true on highmem
      platforms, all 32-bits of a pfn value are used to address a 44-bit
      physical address space.  A pfn_t needs to store a 64-bit value.

      kernel/locking/lockdep.c: convert hash tables to hlists · 4a389810

      Mike said:
      
      : CONFIG_UBSAN_ALIGNMENT breaks x86-64 kernel with lockdep enabled, i.  e
      : kernel with CONFIG_UBSAN_ALIGNMENT fails to load without even any error
      : message.
      :
      : The problem is that ubsan callbacks use spinlocks and might be called

      :
      : If i put lockdep_init() before reserve_ebda_region call in

      Fix this ordering issue permanently: change lockdep so that it uses
      hlists for the hash tables.  Unlike a list_head, an hlist_head is in its
      initialized state when it is all-zeroes, so lockdep is ready for
      operation immediately upon boot - lockdep_init() need not have run.
      
      The patch will also save some memory.
      
      lockdep_init() and lockdep_initialized can be done away with now - a 4.6
      patch has been prepared to do this.

      mm,thp: khugepaged: call pte flush at the time of collapse · 6a6ac72f
      Vineet Gupta authored
      This showed up on ARC when running LMBench bw_mem tests as Overlapping
      TLB Machine Check Exception triggered due to STLB entry (2M pages)
      overlapping some NTLB entry (regular 8K page).
      
      bw_mem 2m touches a large chunk of vaddr creating NTLB entries.  In the
      interim khugepaged kicks in, collapsing the contiguous ptes into a
      single pmd.  pmdp_collapse_flush()->flush_pmd_tlb_range() is called to
      flush out NTLB entries for the ptes.  This for ARC (by design) can only
      shootdown STLB entries (for pmd).  The stray NTLB entries cause the
      overlap with the subsequent STLB entry for collapsed page.  So make
      pmdp_collapse_flush() call pte flush interface not pmd flush.
      
      Note that originally all thp flush call sites in generic code called
      flush_tlb_range() leaving it to architecture to implement the flush for
      pte and/or pmd.  Commit 12ebc158 changed this by calling a new
      opt-in API flush_pmd_tlb_range() which made the semantics more explicit
      but failed to distinguish the pte vs pmd flush in generic code, which is
      what this patch fixes.
      
      Note that ARC can fixed w/o touching the generic pmdp_collapse_flush()
      by defining a ARC version, but that defeats the purpose of generic
      version, plus sementically this is the right thing to do.

      exceptions with super pages

      mm, dax: check for pmd_none() after split_huge_pmd() · 6b9116a6
      Kirill A. Shutemov authored
      DAX implements split_huge_pmd() by clearing pmd.  This simple approach
      reduces memory overhead, as we don't need to deposit page table on huge
      page mapping to make split_huge_pmd() never-fail.  PTE table can be
      allocated and populated later on page fault from backing store.
      
      But one side effect is that have to check if pmd is pmd_none() after
      split_huge_pmd().  In most places we do this already to deal with
      parallel MADV_DONTNEED.
      
      But I found two call sites which is not affected by MADV_DONTNEED (due
      down_write(mmap_sem)), but need to have the check to work with DAX
      properly.

      vsprintf: kptr_restrict is okay in IRQ when 2 · 7eb39129
      Jason A. Donenfeld authored
      The kptr_restrict flag, when set to 1, only prints the kernel address
      when the user has CAP_SYSLOG.  When it is set to 2, the kernel address
      is always printed as zero.  When set to 1, this needs to check whether
      or not we're in IRQ.
      
      However, when set to 2, this check is unneccessary, and produces
      confusing results in dmesg.  Thus, only make sure we're not in IRQ when
      mode 1 is used, but not mode 2.
