      Pull MIPS fixes from Ralf Baechle:
       "Another round of MIPS fixes:
      
         - compressed boot: Ignore a generated .c file
      
         - VDSO: Fix a register clobber list
      
         - DECstation: Fix an int-handler.S CPU_DADDI_WORKAROUNDS regression
      
         - Octeon: Fix recent cleanups that cleaned away a bit too much thus
           breaking the arch side of the EDAC and USB drivers.
      
         - uasm: Fix duplicate const in "const struct foo const bar[]" which
           GCC 7.1 no longer accepts.
      
         - Fix race on setting and getting cpu_online_mask
      
         - Fix preemption issue. To do so cleanly introduce macro to get the
           size of L3 cache line.
      
         - Revert include cleanup that sometimes results in build error
      
         - MicroMIPS uses bit 0 of the PC to indicate microMIPS mode. Make
           sure this bit is set for kernel entry as well.
      
         - Prevent configuring the kernel for both microMIPS and MT. There are
           no such CPUs currently and thus the combination is unsupported and
           results in build errors.
      
        This has been sitting in linux-next for a few days and has survived
        automated testing by Imagination's test farm. No known regressions
        pending except a number of issues that crept up due to lots of people
        switching to GCC 7.1"
      
      * 'upstream' of git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/ralf/upstream-linus:
        MIPS: Set ISA bit in entry-y for microMIPS kernels
        MIPS: Prevent building MT support for microMIPS kernels

        MIPS: Introduce cpu_tcache_line_size

      userfaultfd: replace ENOSPC with ESRCH in case mm has gone during copy/zeropage · e86b298b
      Mike Rapoport authored
      When the process exit races with outstanding mcopy_atomic, it would be
      better to return ESRCH error.  When such race occurs the process and
      it's mm are going away and returning "no such process" to the uffd
      monitor seems better fit than ENOSPC.

      zram: rework copy of compressor name in comp_algorithm_store() · f357e345
      Matthias Kaehlcke authored
      comp_algorithm_store() passes the size of the source buffer to strlcpy()
      instead of the destination buffer size.  Make it explicit that the two
      buffers have the same size and use strcpy() instead of strlcpy().  The
      latter can be done safely since the function ensures that the string in
      the source buffer is terminated.

      The problem is that shmem_unused_huge_shrink() moves entries from the
      global sbinfo->shrinklist to its local lists and then releases the
      spinlock.  However, a parallel shmem_setattr() could access one of these
      entries directly and add it back to the global shrinklist if it is
      removed, with the spinlock held.
      
      The logic itself looks solid since an entry could be either in a local
      list or the global list, otherwise it is removed from one of them by
      list_del_init().  So probably the race condition is that, one CPU is in
      the middle of INIT_LIST_HEAD() but the other CPU calls list_empty()
      which returns true too early then the following list_add_tail() sees a
      corrupted entry.
      
      list_empty_careful() is designed to fix this situation.

      mm/balloon_compaction.c: don't zero ballooned pages · af54aed9
      Wei Wang authored
      Revert commit bb01b64c ("mm/balloon_compaction.c: enqueue zero page
      to balloon device")'
      
      Zeroing ballon pages is rather time consuming, especially when a lot of
      pages are in flight. E.g. 7GB worth of ballooned memory takes 2.8s with
      __GFP_ZERO while it takes ~491ms without it.
      
      The original commit argued that zeroing will help ksmd to merge these
      pages on the host but this argument is assuming that the host actually
      marks balloon pages for ksm which is not universally true.  So we pay
      performance penalty for something that even might not be used in the end
      which is wrong.  The host can zero out pages on its own when there is a
      need.

      mm: fix KSM data corruption · b3a81d08
      Minchan Kim authored
      Nadav reported KSM can corrupt the user data by the TLB batching
      race[1].  That means data user written can be lost.
      
      Quote from Nadav Amit:
       "For this race we need 4 CPUs:
      
        CPU0: Caches a writable and dirty PTE entry, and uses the stale value
        for write later.
      
        CPU1: Runs madvise_free on the range that includes the PTE. It would
        clear the dirty-bit. It batches TLB flushes.
      
        CPU2: Writes 4 to /proc/PID/clear_refs , clearing the PTEs soft-dirty.
        We care about the fact that it clears the PTE write-bit, and of
        course, batches TLB flushes.
      
        CPU3: Runs KSM. Our purpose is to pass the following test in
        write_protect_page():
      
      	if (pte_write(*pvmw.pte) || pte_dirty(*pvmw.pte) ||
      	    (pte_protnone(*pvmw.pte) && pte_savedwrite(*pvmw.pte)))
      
        Since it will avoid TLB flush. And we want to do it while the PTE is
        stale. Later, and before replacing the page, we would be able to
        change the page.
      
        Note that all the operations the CPU1-3 perform canhappen in parallel
        since they only acquire mmap_sem for read.
      
        We start with two identical pages. Everything below regards the same
        page/PTE.
      
        CPU0        CPU1        CPU2        CPU3
        ----        ----        ----        ----
        Write the same
        value on page
      
        [cache PTE as
         dirty in TLB]
      
                    MADV_FREE
                    pte_mkclean()
      
                                4 > clear_refs
                                pte_wrprotect()
      
                                            write_protect_page()
                                            [ success, no flush ]
      
                                            pages_indentical()
                                            [ ok ]
      
        Write to page
        different value
      
        [Ok, using stale
         PTE]
      
                                            replace_page()
      
        Later, CPU1, CPU2 and CPU3 would flush the TLB, but that is too late.
        CPU0 already wrote on the page, but KSM ignored this write, and it got
        lost"
      
      In above scenario, MADV_FREE is fixed by changing TLB batching API
      including [set|clear]_tlb_flush_pending.  Remained thing is soft-dirty
      part.
      
      This patch changes soft-dirty uses TLB batching API instead of
      flush_tlb_mm and KSM checks pending TLB flush by using
      mm_tlb_flush_pending so that it will flush TLB to avoid data lost if
      there are other parallel threads pending TLB flush.

      mm: fix MADV_[FREE|DONTNEED] TLB flush miss problem · 99baac21
      Minchan Kim authored
      Nadav reported parallel MADV_DONTNEED on same range has a stale TLB
      problem and Mel fixed it[1] and found same problem on MADV_FREE[2].
      
      Quote from Mel Gorman:
       "The race in question is CPU 0 running madv_free and updating some PTEs
        while CPU 1 is also running madv_free and looking at the same PTEs.
        CPU 1 may have writable TLB entries for a page but fail the pte_dirty
        check (because CPU 0 has updated it already) and potentially fail to
        flush.
      
        Hence, when madv_free on CPU 1 returns, there are still potentially
        writable TLB entries and the underlying PTE is still present so that a
        subsequent write does not necessarily propagate the dirty bit to the
        underlying PTE any more. Reclaim at some unknown time at the future
        may then see that the PTE is still clean and discard the page even
        though a write has happened in the meantime. I think this is possible
        but I could have missed some protection in madv_free that prevents it
        happening."
      
      This patch aims for solving both problems all at once and is ready for
      other problem with KSM, MADV_FREE and soft-dirty story[3].
      
      TLB batch API(tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu] uses [inc|dec]_tlb_flush_pending
      and mmu_tlb_flush_pending so that when tlb_finish_mmu is called, we can
      catch there are parallel threads going on.  In that case, forcefully,
      flush TLB to prevent for user to access memory via stale TLB entry
      although it fail to gather page table entry.
      
      I confirmed this patch works with [4] test program Nadav gave so this
      patch supersedes "mm: Always flush VMA ranges affected by zap_page_range
      v2" in current mmotm.
      
      NOTE:
      
      This patch modifies arch-specific TLB gathering interface(x86, ia64,
      s390, sh, um).  It seems most of architecture are straightforward but
      s390 need to be careful because tlb_flush_mmu works only if
      mm->context.flush_mm is set to non-zero which happens only a pte entry
      really is cleared by ptep_get_and_clear and friends.  However, this
      problem never changes the pte entries but need to flush to prevent
      memory access from stale tlb.
