Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
 "We've got a reasonably broad set of audit patches for the v5.2 merge
  window, the highlights are below:

   - The biggest change, and the source of all the arch/* changes, is
     the patchset from Dmitry to help enable some of the work he is
     doing around PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO.

     To be honest, including this in the audit tree is a bit of a
     stretch, but it does help move audit a little further along towards
     proper syscall auditing for all arches, and everyone else seemed to
     agree that audit was a "good" spot for this to land (or maybe they
     just didn't want to merge it? dunno.).

   - We can now audit time/NTP adjustments.

   - We continue the work to connect associated audit records into a
     single event"

After removing the start and count arguments of syscall_get_arguments() it
seems reasonable to remove them from syscall_set_arguments(). Note, as of
today, there are no users of syscall_set_arguments(). But we are told that
there will be soon. But for now, at least make it consistent with
syscall_get_arguments().

At Linux Plumbers, Andy Lutomirski approached me and pointed out that the
function call syscall_get_arguments() implemented in x86 was horribly
written and not optimized for the standard case of passing in 0 and 6 for
the starting index and the number of system calls to get. When looking at
all the users of this function, I discovered that all instances pass in only
0 and 6 for these arguments. Instead of having this function handle
different cases that are never used, simply rewrite it to return the first 6
arguments of a system call.

This should help out the performance of tracing system calls by ptrace,
ftrace and perf.

This argument is required to extend the generic ptrace API with
PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO request: syscall_get_arch() is going
to be called from ptrace_request() along with syscall_get_nr(),
syscall_get_arguments(), syscall_get_error(), and
syscall_get_return_value() functions with a tracee as their argument.

The primary intent is that the triple (audit_arch, syscall_nr, arg1..arg6)
should describe what system call is being called and what its arguments
are.

Removing CONFIG_SYSCALL_PTREGS from arch/x86/Kconfig and simply selecting
ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER unconditionally on x86-64 allows us to simplify
several codepaths.

<title>syscalls/x86: Use 'struct pt_regs' based syscall calling convention for 64-bit syscalls</title>

<id>urn:sha1:fa697140f9a20119a9ec8fd7460cc4314fbdaff3</id>
<content type='text'>
Let's make use of ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER=y on pure 64-bit x86-64 systems:

Each syscall defines a stub which takes struct pt_regs as its only
argument. It decodes just those parameters it needs, e.g:

	asmlinkage long sys_xyzzy(const struct pt_regs *regs)
	{
		return SyS_xyzzy(regs-&gt;di, regs-&gt;si, regs-&gt;dx);
	}

This approach avoids leaking random user-provided register content down
the call chain.

For example, for sys_recv() which is a 4-parameter syscall, the assembly
now is (in slightly reordered fashion):

	&lt;sys_recv&gt;:
		callq	&lt;__fentry__&gt;

		/* decode regs-&gt;di, -&gt;si, -&gt;dx and -&gt;r10 */
		mov	0x70(%rdi),%rdi
		mov	0x68(%rdi),%rsi
		mov	0x60(%rdi),%rdx
		mov	0x38(%rdi),%rcx

		[ SyS_recv() is automatically inlined by the compiler,
		  as it is not [yet] used anywhere else ]
		/* clear %r9 and %r8, the 5th and 6th args */
		xor	%r9d,%r9d
		xor	%r8d,%r8d

		/* do the actual work */
		callq	__sys_recvfrom

		/* cleanup and return */
		cltq
		retq

The only valid place in an x86-64 kernel which rightfully calls
a syscall function on its own -- vsyscall -- needs to be modified
to pass struct pt_regs onwards as well.

To keep the syscall table generation working independent of
SYSCALL_PTREGS being enabled, the stubs are named the same as the
"original" syscall stubs, i.e. sys_*().

This patch is based on an original proof-of-concept

 | Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds &lt;torvalds@linux-foundation.org&gt;

and was split up and heavily modified by me, in particular to base it on
ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER, to limit it to 64-bit-only for the time being,
and to update the vsyscall to the new calling convention.

<title>x86/asm: Move 'status' from thread_struct to thread_info</title>

<id>urn:sha1:37a8f7c38339b22b69876d6f5a0ab851565284e3</id>
<content type='text'>
The TS_COMPAT bit is very hot and is accessed from code paths that mostly
also touch thread_info::flags.  Move it into struct thread_info to improve
cache locality.

The only reason it was in thread_struct is that there was a brief period
during which arch-specific fields were not allowed in struct thread_info.

Linus suggested further changing:

  ti-&gt;status &amp;= ~(TS_COMPAT|TS_I386_REGS_POKED);

to:

  if (unlikely(ti-&gt;status &amp; (TS_COMPAT|TS_I386_REGS_POKED)))
          ti-&gt;status &amp;= ~(TS_COMPAT|TS_I386_REGS_POKED);

on the theory that frequently dirtying the cacheline even in pure 64-bit
code that never needs to modify status hurts performance.  That could be a
reasonable followup patch, but I suspect it matters less on top of this
patch.

Because sched.h and thread_info.h are a tangled mess, I turned
in_compat_syscall() into a macro.  If we had current_thread_struct()
or similar and we could use it from thread_info.h, then this would
be a bit cleaner.

Setting TS_COMPAT in ptrace is wrong: if we happen to do it during
syscall entry, then we'll confuse seccomp and audit.  (The former
isn't a security problem: seccomp is currently entirely insecure if a
malicious ptracer is attached.)  As a minimal fix, this patch adds a
new flag TS_I386_REGS_POKED that handles the ptrace special case.
