Merge L1 Terminal Fault fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"L1TF, aka L1 Terminal Fault, is yet another speculative hardware
engineering trainwreck. It's a hardware vulnerability which allows
unprivileged speculative access to data which is available in the
Level 1 Data Cache when the page table entry controlling the virtual
address, which is used for the access, has the Present bit cleared or
other reserved bits set.
If an instruction accesses a virtual address for which the relevant
page table entry (PTE) has the Present bit cleared or other reserved
bits set, then speculative execution ignores the invalid PTE and loads
the referenced data if it is present in the Level 1 Data Cache, as if
the page referenced by the address bits in the PTE was still present
and accessible.
While this is a purely speculative mechanism and the instruction will
raise a page fault when it is retired eventually, the pure act of
loading the data and making it available to other speculative
instructions opens up the opportunity for side channel attacks to
unprivileged malicious code, similar to the Meltdown attack.
While Meltdown breaks the user space to kernel space protection, L1TF
allows to attack any physical memory address in the system and the
attack works across all protection domains. It allows an attack of SGX
and also works from inside virtual machines because the speculation
bypasses the extended page table (EPT) protection mechanism.
The assoicated CVEs are: CVE-2018-3615, CVE-2018-3620, CVE-2018-3646
The mitigations provided by this pull request include:
- Host side protection by inverting the upper address bits of a non
present page table entry so the entry points to uncacheable memory.
- Hypervisor protection by flushing L1 Data Cache on VMENTER.
- SMT (HyperThreading) control knobs, which allow to 'turn off' SMT
by offlining the sibling CPU threads. The knobs are available on
the kernel command line and at runtime via sysfs
- Control knobs for the hypervisor mitigation, related to L1D flush
and SMT control. The knobs are available on the kernel command line
and at runtime via sysfs
- Extensive documentation about L1TF including various degrees of
mitigations.
Thanks to all people who have contributed to this in various ways -
patches, review, testing, backporting - and the fruitful, sometimes
heated, but at the end constructive discussions.
There is work in progress to provide other forms of mitigations, which
might be less horrible performance wise for a particular kind of
workloads, but this is not yet ready for consumption due to their
complexity and limitations"

Pull xfs updates from Darrick Wong:
"This is the second part of the XFS changes for 4.19.
The biggest changes are the removal of buffer heads frm XFS, a massive
reworking of the deferred transaction operations handling code, the
removal of the long defunct barrier/nobarrier mount options, and the
addition of a few more online repair functions.
Summary:
- Use extent maps to track pagecache page status instead of
bufferhead state.
- Refactor pagecache read and write paths to use the new iomap
library functions, which enable us to drop the old bufferhead code
for pagesize == blocksize filesystems.
- Set up parallel per-block-per-page metadata to track subpage
information that was tracked by buffer heads, which enables us to
drop the old bufferhead code for pagesize > blocksize filesystems.
- Tie a deferred ops control structure to a transaction so that we
can take advantage of an upper-level dfops without having to plumb
pointer passing through the code.
- Refactor the deferred ops code to track deferred ops as part of the
transaction structure (instead of as a separate data structure) so
that we can simplify the scoping rules around defer_ops.
- Refactor twisty delwri buffer submission code to avoid deadlocks.
- Shorten and fix indenting problems in the scrub code.
- Detect obviously bad summary counts at mount and fix them.
- Directly associate deferred ops control structure with a
transaction so that callers no longer have to manage it themselves.
- Remove a couple of IRIX-era inode macros.
- Remove the long-deprecated 'barrier' and 'nobarrier' mount options.
- Clean up the inode fork structure a bit.
- Check for bad fs summary counter values in the superblock.
- Reduce COW fork lookups during writeback.
- Refactor the deferred ops control structures into the transaction
structure, thereby eliminating the need for transaction users to
handle the deferred ops as a separate data structure.
- Add the ability to repair AG headers online.
- Fix a crash due to insufficient return value checking.
- Various fixes and cleanups"

Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
"Mostly fixes and cleanups, nothing big, though the notable thing is
the inserted/deleted lines delta -1124.
User visible changes:
- allow defrag on opened read-only files that have rw permissions;
similar to what dedupe will allow on such files
Core changes:
- tree checker improvements, reported by fuzzing:
* more checks for: block group items, essential trees
* chunk type validation
* mount time cross-checks that physical and logical chunks match
* switch more error codes to EUCLEAN aka EFSCORRUPTED
Fixes:
- fsync corner case fixes
- fix send failure when root has deleted files still open
- send, fix incorrect file layout after hole punching beyond eof
- fix races between mount and deice scan ioctl, found by fuzzing
- fix deadlock when delayed iput is called from writeback on the same
inode; rare but has been observed in practice, also removes code
- fix pinned byte accounting, using the right percpu helpers; this
should avoid some write IO inefficiency during low space conditions
- don't remove block group that still has pinned bytes
- reset on-disk device stats value after replace, otherwise this
would report stale values for the new device
Cleanups:
- time64_t/timespec64 cleanups
- remove remaining dead code in scrub handling NOCOW extents after
disabling it in previous cycle
- simplify fsync regarding ordered extents logic and remove all the
related code
- remove redundant arguments in order to reduce stack space
consumption
- remove support for V0 type of extents, not in use since 2.6.30
- remove several unused structure members
- fewer indirect function calls by inlining some callbacks
- qgroup rescan timing fixes

Pull MIPS updates from Paul Burton:
"Here are the main MIPS changes for 4.19.
An overview of the general architecture changes:
- Massive DMA ops refactoring from Christoph Hellwig (huzzah for
deleting crufty code!).
- We introduce NT_MIPS_DSP & NT_MIPS_FP_MODE ELF notes &
corresponding regsets to expose DSP ASE & floating point mode state
respectively, both for live debugging & core dumps.
- We better optimize our code by hard-coding cpu_has_* macros at
compile time where their values are known due to the ISA revision
that the kernel build is targeting.
- The EJTAG exception handler now better handles SMP systems, where
it was previously possible for CPUs to clobber a register value
saved by another CPU.
- Our implementation of memset() gained a couple of fixes for MIPSr6
systems to return correct values in some cases where stores fault.
- We now implement ioremap_wc() using the uncached-accelerated cache
coherency attribute where supported, which is detected during boot,
and fall back to plain uncached access where necessary. The
MIPS-specific (and unused in tree) ioremap_uncached_accelerated() &
ioremap_cacheable_cow() are removed.
- The prctl(PR_SET_FP_MODE, ...) syscall is better supported for SMP
systems by reworking the way we ensure remote CPUs that may be
running threads within the affected process switch mode.
- Systems using the MIPS Coherence Manager will now set the
MIPS_IC_SNOOPS_REMOTE flag to avoid some unnecessary cache
maintenance overhead when flushing the icache.
- A few fixes were made for building with clang/LLVM, which now
sucessfully builds kernels for many of our platforms.
- Miscellaneous cleanups all over.
And some platform-specific changes:
- ar7 gained stubs for a few clock API functions to fix build
failures for some drivers.
- ath79 gained support for a few new SoCs, a few fixes & better
gpio-keys support.
- Ci20 now exposes its SPI bus using the spi-gpio driver.
- The generic platform can now auto-detect a suitable value for
PHYS_OFFSET based upon the memory map described by the device tree,
allowing us to avoid wasting memory on page book-keeping for
systems where RAM starts at a non-zero physical address.
- Ingenic systems using the jz4740 platform code now link their
vmlinuz higher to allow for kernels of a realistic size.
- Loongson32 now builds the kernel targeting MIPSr1 rather than
MIPSr2 to avoid CPU errata.
- Loongson64 gains a couple of fixes, a workaround for a write
buffering issue & support for the Loongson 3A R3.1 CPU.
- Malta now uses the piix4-poweroff driver to handle powering down.
- Microsemi Ocelot gained support for its SPI bus & NOR flash, its
second MDIO bus and can now be supported by a FIT/.itb image.
- Octeon saw a bunch of header cleanups which remove a lot of
duplicate or unused code"

Pull s390 updates from Heiko Carstens:
"Since Martin is on vacation you get the s390 pull request from me:
- Host large page support for KVM guests. As the patches have large
impact on arch/s390/mm/ this series goes out via both the KVM and
the s390 tree.
- Add an option for no compression to the "Kernel compression mode"
menu, this will come in handy with the rework of the early boot
code.
- A large rework of the early boot code that will make life easier
for KASAN and KASLR. With the rework the bootable uncompressed
image is not generated anymore, only the bzImage is available. For
debuggung purposes the new "no compression" option is used.
- Re-enable the gcc plugins as the issue with the latent entropy
plugin is solved with the early boot code rework.
- More spectre relates changes:
+ Detect the etoken facility and remove expolines automatically.
+ Add expolines to a few more indirect branches.
- A rewrite of the common I/O layer trace points to make them
consumable by 'perf stat'.
- Add support for format-3 PCI function measurement blocks.
- Changes for the zcrypt driver:
+ Add attributes to indicate the load of cards and queues.
+ Restructure some code for the upcoming AP device support in KVM.
- Build flags improvements in various Makefiles.
- A few fixes for the kdump support.
- A couple of patches for gcc 8 compile warning cleanup.
- Cleanup s390 specific proc handlers.
- Add s390 support to the restartable sequence self tests.
- Some PTR_RET vs PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO cleanup.
- Lots of bug fixes"

Pull x86 cache QoS (RDT/CAR) updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Add support for pseudo-locked cache regions.
Cache Allocation Technology (CAT) allows on certain CPUs to isolate a
region of cache and 'lock' it. Cache pseudo-locking builds on the fact
that a CPU can still read and write data pre-allocated outside its
current allocated area on cache hit. With cache pseudo-locking data
can be preloaded into a reserved portion of cache that no application
can fill, and from that point on will only serve cache hits. The cache
pseudo-locked memory is made accessible to user space where an
application can map it into its virtual address space and thus have a
region of memory with reduced average read latency.
The locking is not perfect and gets totally screwed by WBINDV and
similar mechanisms, but it provides a reasonable enhancement for
certain types of latency sensitive applications.
The implementation extends the current CAT mechanism and provides a
generally useful exclusive CAT mode on which it builds the extra
pseude-locked regions"

Pull RCU updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A large update to RCU:
Preparatory work for consolidating the RCU flavors:
- Introduce grace-period sequence numbers to the RCU-bh, RCU-preempt,
and RCU-sched flavors, replacing the old ->gpnum and ->completed
pair of fields.
This change allows lockless code to obtain the complete
grace-period state with a single READ_ONCE(), which is needed to
maintain tolerable lock contention during the upcoming
consolidation of the three RCU flavors.
Note that grace-period sequence numbers are already used by
rcu_barrier(), expedited RCU grace periods, and SRCU, and are thus
already heavily used and well-tested. Joel Fernandes contributed a
number of excellent fixes and improvements.
- Clean up some grace-period-reporting loose ends, including
improving the handling of quiescent states from offline CPUs and
fixing some false-positive WARN_ON_ONCE() invocations.
(Strictly speaking, the WARN_ON_ONCE() invocations were quite
correct, but their invariants were (harmlessly) violated by the
earlier sloppy handling of quiescent states from offline CPUs.)
In addition, improve grace-period forward-progress guarantees so as
to allow removal of fail-safe checks that required otherwise
needless lock acquisitions. Finally, add more diagnostics to help

clk_get()
The way this function is implemented caused some confusion when
converting the TI DaVinci platform to using the common clock framework.
Current kernel supports booting DaVinci boards both in device tree as
well as legacy, board-file mode. In the latter, we always end up
calling clk_get_sys() as of_node is NULL and __of_clk_get_by_name()
returns -ENOENT.
It was not obvious at first glance how clk_get(dev, NULL) will work in
board-file mode since we always call __of_clk_get_by_name(). Let's make
it clearer by checking if of_node is NULL and skipping right to
clk_get_sys().

This patchset fixes and improves stack unwinding a lot:
1. Show backward stack traces with up to 30 callsites
2. Add callinfo to ENTRY_CFI() such that every assembler function will get an
entry in the unwind table
3. Use constants instead of numbers in call_on_stack()
4. Do not depend on CONFIG_KALLSYMS to generate backtraces.
5. Speed up backtrace generation
Make sure you have this patch to GNU as installed:
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2018-07/msg00474.html
Without this patch, unwind info in the kernel is often wrong for various
functions.

Now that mb() is an instruction barrier, it will slow performance if we issue
unnecessary barriers.
The spinlock defines have a number of unnecessary barriers. The __ldcw()
define is both a hardware and compiler barrier. The mb() barriers in the
routines using __ldcw() serve no purpose.
The only barrier needed is the one in arch_spin_unlock(). We need to ensure
all accesses are complete prior to releasing the lock.

Now that we use a sync prior to releasing the locks in syscall.S, we don't need
the PA 2.0 ordered stores used to release some locks. Using an ordered store,
potentially slows the release and subsequent code.
There are a number of other ordered stores and loads that serve no purpose. I
have converted these to normal stores.
