Pull perf fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A larger set of updates for perf.
Kernel:
- Handle the SBOX uncore monitoring correctly on Broadwell CPUs which
do not have SBOX.
- Store context switch out type in PERF_RECORD_SWITCH[_CPU_WIDE]. The
percentage of preempting and non-preempting context switches help
understanding the nature of workloads (CPU or IO bound) that are
running on a machine. This adds the kernel facility and userspace
changes needed to show this information in 'perf script' and 'perf
report -D' (Alexey Budankov)
- Remove a WARN_ON() in the trace/kprobes code which is pointless
because the return error code is already telling the caller what's
wrong.
- Revert a fugly workaround for clang BPF targets.
- Fix sample_max_stack maximum check and do not proceed when an error
has been detect, return them to avoid misidentifying errors (Jiri
Olsa)
- Add SPDX idenitifiers and get rid of GPL boilderplate.
Tools:
- Synchronize kernel ABI headers, v4.17-rc1 (Ingo Molnar)
- Support MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE, noticed when updating the
tools/include/ copies (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Add '\n' at the end of parse-options error messages (Ravi Bangoria)
- Add s390 support for detailed/verbose PMU event description (Thomas
Richter)
- perf annotate fixes and improvements:
* Allow showing offsets in more than just jump targets, use the
new 'O' hotkey in the TUI, config ~/.perfconfig
annotate.offset_level for it and for --stdio2 (Arnaldo Carvalho
de Melo)
* Use the resolved variable names from objdump disassembled lines
to make them more compact, just like was already done for some
instructions, like "mov", this eventually will be done more
generally, but lets now add some more to the existing mechanism
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- perf record fixes:
* Change warning for missing topology sysfs entry to debug, as not
all architectures have those files, s390 being one of those
(Thomas Richter)
* Remove old error messages about things that unlikely to be the
root cause in modern systems (Andi Kleen)
- perf sched fixes:
* Fix -g/--call-graph documentation (Takuya Yamamoto)
- perf stat:
* Enable 1ms interval for printing event counters values in
(Alexey Budankov)
- perf test fixes:
* Run dwarf unwind on arm32 (Kim Phillips)
* Remove unused ptrace.h include from LLVM test, sidesteping older
clang's lack of support for some asm constructs (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)
* Fixup BPF test using epoll_pwait syscall function probe, to cope
with the syscall routines renames performed in this development
cycle (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- perf version fixes:
* Do not print info about HAVE_LIBAUDIT_SUPPORT in 'perf version
--build-options' when HAVE_SYSCALL_TABLE_SUPPORT is true, as
libaudit won't be used in that case, print info about
syscall_table support instead (Jin Yao)
- Build system fixes:
* Use HAVE_..._SUPPORT used consistently (Jin Yao)
* Restore READ_ONCE() C++ compatibility in tools/include (Mark
Rutland)
* Give hints about package names needed to build jvmti (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)"

Store preempting context switch out event into Perf trace as a part of
PERF_RECORD_SWITCH[_CPU_WIDE] record.
Percentage of preempting and non-preempting context switches help
understanding the nature of workloads (CPU or IO bound) that are running
on a machine;
The event is treated as preemption one when task->state value of the
thread being switched out is TASK_RUNNING. Event type encoding is
implemented using PERF_RECORD_MISC_SWITCH_OUT_PREEMPT bit;

ARM, ARM64 and UniCore32 duplicate the definition of UL():
#define UL(x) _AC(x, UL)
This is not actually arch-specific, so it will be useful to move it to a
common header. Currently, we only have the uapi variant for
linux/const.h, so I am creating include/linux/const.h.
I also added _UL(), _ULL() and ULL() because _AC() is mostly used in
the form either _AC(..., UL) or _AC(..., ULL). I expect they will be
replaced in follow-up cleanups. The underscore-prefixed ones should
be used for exported headers.

Patch series "linux/const.h: cleanups of macros such as UL(), _BITUL(),
BIT() etc", v3.
ARM, ARM64, UniCore32 define UL() as a shorthand of _AC(..., UL). More
architectures may introduce it in the future.
UL() is arch-agnostic, and useful. So let's move it to
include/linux/const.h
Currently, <asm/memory.h> must be included to use UL(). It pulls in more
bloats just for defining some bit macros.
I posted V2 one year ago.
The previous posts are:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9498273/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9498275/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9498269/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9498271/
At that time, what blocked this series was a comment from
David Howells:
You need to be very careful doing this. Some userspace stuff
depends on the guard macro names on the kernel header files.
(https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9498275/)
Looking at the code closer, I noticed this is not a problem.
See the following line.
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/v4.16-rc2/scripts/headers_install.sh#L40
scripts/headers_install.sh rips off _UAPI prefix from guard macro names.
I ran "make headers_install" and confirmed the result is what I expect.
So, we can prefix the include guard of include/uapi/linux/const.h,
and add a new include/linux/const.h.
This patch (of 4):
I am going to add include/linux/const.h for the kernel space.
Add _UAPI to the include guard of include/uapi/linux/const.h to
prepare for that.
Please notice the guard name of the exported one will be kept as-is.
So, this commit has no impact to the userspace even if some userspace
stuff depends on the guard macro names.
scripts/headers_install.sh processes exported headers by SED, and
rips off "_UAPI" from guard macro names.
#ifndef _UAPI_LINUX_CONST_H
#define _UAPI_LINUX_CONST_H

Both load_elf_interp and load_elf_binary rely on elf_map to map segments
on a controlled address and they use MAP_FIXED to enforce that. This is
however dangerous thing prone to silent data corruption which can be
even exploitable.
Let's take CVE-2017-1000253 as an example. At the time (before commit
eab09532d400: "binfmt_elf: use ELF_ET_DYN_BASE only for PIE")
ELF_ET_DYN_BASE was at TASK_SIZE / 3 * 2 which is not that far away from
the stack top on 32b (legacy) memory layout (only 1GB away). Therefore
we could end up mapping over the existing stack with some luck.
The issue has been fixed since then (a87938b2e246: "fs/binfmt_elf.c: fix
bug in loading of PIE binaries"), ELF_ET_DYN_BASE moved moved much
further from the stack (eab09532d400 and later by c715b72c1ba4: "mm:
revert x86_64 and arm64 ELF_ET_DYN_BASE base changes") and excessive
stack consumption early during execve fully stopped by da029c11e6b1
("exec: Limit arg stack to at most 75% of _STK_LIM"). So we should be
safe and any attack should be impractical. On the other hand this is
just too subtle assumption so it can break quite easily and hard to
spot.
I believe that the MAP_FIXED usage in load_elf_binary (et. al) is still
fundamentally dangerous. Moreover it shouldn't be even needed. We are
at the early process stage and so there shouldn't be unrelated mappings
(except for stack and loader) existing so mmap for a given address should
succeed even without MAP_FIXED. Something is terribly wrong if this is
not the case and we should rather fail than silently corrupt the
underlying mapping.
Address this issue by changing MAP_FIXED to the newly added
MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE. This will mean that mmap will fail if there is an
existing mapping clashing with the requested one without clobbering it.

Patch series "mm: introduce MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE", v2.
This has started as a follow up discussion [3][4] resulting in the
runtime failure caused by hardening patch [5] which removes MAP_FIXED
from the elf loader because MAP_FIXED is inherently dangerous as it
might silently clobber an existing underlying mapping (e.g. stack).
The reason for the failure is that some architectures enforce an
alignment for the given address hint without MAP_FIXED used (e.g. for
shared or file backed mappings).
One way around this would be excluding those archs which do alignment
tricks from the hardening [6]. The patch is really trivial but it has
been objected, rightfully so, that this screams for a more generic
solution. We basically want a non-destructive MAP_FIXED.
The first patch introduced MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE which enforces the given
address but unlike MAP_FIXED it fails with EEXIST if the given range
conflicts with an existing one. The flag is introduced as a completely
new one rather than a MAP_FIXED extension because of the backward
compatibility. We really want a never-clobber semantic even on older
kernels which do not recognize the flag. Unfortunately mmap sucks
wrt flags evaluation because we do not EINVAL on unknown flags. On
those kernels we would simply use the traditional hint based semantic so
the caller can still get a different address (which sucks) but at least
not silently corrupt an existing mapping. I do not see a good way
around that. Except we won't export expose the new semantic to the
userspace at all.
It seems there are users who would like to have something like that.
Jemalloc has been mentioned by Michael Ellerman [7]
Florian Weimer has mentioned the following:
: glibc ld.so currently maps DSOs without hints. This means that the kernel
: will map right next to each other, and the offsets between them a completely
: predictable. We would like to change that and supply a random address in a
: window of the address space. If there is a conflict, we do not want the
: kernel to pick a non-random address. Instead, we would try again with a
: random address.
John Hubbard has mentioned CUDA example
: a) Searches /proc/<pid>/maps for a "suitable" region of available
: VA space. "Suitable" generally means it has to have a base address
: within a certain limited range (a particular device model might
: have odd limitations, for example), it has to be large enough, and
: alignment has to be large enough (again, various devices may have
: constraints that lead us to do this).
:
: This is of course subject to races with other threads in the process.
:
: Let's say it finds a region starting at va.
:
: b) Next it does:
: p = mmap(va, ...)
:
: *without* setting MAP_FIXED, of course (so va is just a hint), to
: attempt to safely reserve that region. If p != va, then in most cases,
: this is a failure (almost certainly due to another thread getting a
: mapping from that region before we did), and so this layer now has to
: call munmap(), before returning a "failure: retry" to upper layers.
:
: IMPROVEMENT: --> if instead, we could call this:
:
: p = mmap(va, ... MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE ...)
:
: , then we could skip the munmap() call upon failure. This
: is a small thing, but it is useful here. (Thanks to Piotr
: Jaroszynski and Mark Hairgrove for helping me get that detail
: exactly right, btw.)
:
: c) After that, CUDA suballocates from p, via:
:
: q = mmap(sub_region_start, ... MAP_FIXED ...)
:
: Interestingly enough, "freeing" is also done via MAP_FIXED, and
: setting PROT_NONE to the subregion. Anyway, I just included (c) for
: general interest.
Atomic address range probing in the multithreaded programs in general
sounds like an interesting thing to me.
The second patch simply replaces MAP_FIXED use in elf loader by
MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE. I believe other places which rely on MAP_FIXED
should follow. Actually real MAP_FIXED usages should be docummented
properly and they should be more of an exception.

This patch (of 2):
MAP_FIXED is used quite often to enforce mapping at the particular range.
The main problem of this flag is, however, that it is inherently dangerous
because it unmaps existing mappings covered by the requested range. This
can cause silent memory corruptions. Some of them even with serious
security implications. While the current semantic might be really
desiderable in many cases there are others which would want to enforce the
given range but rather see a failure than a silent memory corruption on a
clashing range. Please note that there is no guarantee that a given range
is obeyed by the mmap even when it is free - e.g. arch specific code is
allowed to apply an alignment.
Introduce a new MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE flag for mmap to achieve this
behavior. It has the same semantic as MAP_FIXED wrt. the given address
request with a single exception that it fails with EEXIST if the requested
address is already covered by an existing mapping. We still do rely on
get_unmaped_area to handle all the arch specific MAP_FIXED treatment and
check for a conflicting vma after it returns.
The flag is introduced as a completely new one rather than a MAP_FIXED
extension because of the backward compatibility. We really want a
never-clobber semantic even on older kernels which do not recognize the
flag. Unfortunately mmap sucks wrt. flags evaluation because we do not
EINVAL on unknown flags. On those kernels we would simply use the
traditional hint based semantic so the caller can still get a different
address (which sucks) but at least not silently corrupt an existing
mapping. I do not see a good way around that.

There is a permission discrepancy when consulting msq ipc object
metadata between /proc/sysvipc/msg (0444) and the MSG_STAT shmctl
command. The later does permission checks for the object vs S_IRUGO.
As such there can be cases where EACCESS is returned via syscall but the
info is displayed anyways in the procfs files.
While this might have security implications via info leaking (albeit no
writing to the msq metadata), this behavior goes way back and showing
all the objects regardless of the permissions was most likely an
overlook - so we are stuck with it. Furthermore, modifying either the
syscall or the procfs file can cause userspace programs to break (ie
ipcs). Some applications require getting the procfs info (without root
privileges) and can be rather slow in comparison with a syscall -- up to
500x in some reported cases for shm.
This patch introduces a new MSG_STAT_ANY command such that the msq ipc
object permissions are ignored, and only audited instead. In addition,
I've left the lsm security hook checks in place, as if some policy can
block the call, then the user has no other choice than just parsing the
procfs file.

Patch series "sysvipc: introduce STAT_ANY commands", v2.
The following patches adds the discussed (see [1]) new command for shm
as well as for sems and msq as they are subject to the same
discrepancies for ipc object permission checks between the syscall and
via procfs. These new commands are justified in that (1) we are stuck
with this semantics as changing syscall and procfs can break userland;
and (2) some users can benefit from performance (for large amounts of
shm segments, for example) from not having to parse the procfs
interface.
Once merged, I will submit the necesary manpage updates. But I'm thinking

This patch (of 3):
There is a permission discrepancy when consulting shm ipc object metadata
between /proc/sysvipc/shm (0444) and the SHM_STAT shmctl command. The
later does permission checks for the object vs S_IRUGO. As such there can
be cases where EACCESS is returned via syscall but the info is displayed
anyways in the procfs files.
While this might have security implications via info leaking (albeit no
writing to the shm metadata), this behavior goes way back and showing all
the objects regardless of the permissions was most likely an overlook - so
we are stuck with it. Furthermore, modifying either the syscall or the
procfs file can cause userspace programs to break (ie ipcs). Some
applications require getting the procfs info (without root privileges) and
can be rather slow in comparison with a syscall -- up to 500x in some
reported cases.
This patch introduces a new SHM_STAT_ANY command such that the shm ipc
object permissions are ignored, and only audited instead. In addition,
I've left the lsm security hook checks in place, as if some policy can
block the call, then the user has no other choice than just parsing the
procfs file.

Pull rdma updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
"Doug and I are at a conference next week so if another PR is sent I
expect it to only be bug fixes. Parav noted yesterday that there are
some fringe case behavior changes in his work that he would like to
fix, and I see that Intel has a number of rc looking patches for HFI1
they posted yesterday.
Parav is again the biggest contributor by patch count with his ongoing
work to enable container support in the RDMA stack, followed by Leon
doing syzkaller inspired cleanups, though most of the actual fixing
went to RC.
There is one uncomfortable series here fixing the user ABI to actually
work as intended in 32 bit mode. There are lots of notes in the commit
messages, but the basic summary is we don't think there is an actual
32 bit kernel user of drivers/infiniband for several good reasons.
However we are seeing people want to use a 32 bit user space with 64
bit kernel, which didn't completely work today. So in fixing it we
required a 32 bit rxe user to upgrade their userspace. rxe users are
still already quite rare and we think a 32 bit one is non-existing.
- Fix RDMA uapi headers to actually compile in userspace and be more
complete
- Three shared with netdev pull requests from Mellanox:
* 7 patches, mostly to net with 1 IB related one at the back).
This series addresses an IRQ performance issue (patch 1),
cleanups related to the fix for the IRQ performance problem
(patches 2-6), and then extends the fragmented completion queue
support that already exists in the net side of the driver to the
ib side of the driver (patch 7).
* Mostly IB, with 5 patches to net that are needed to support the
remaining 10 patches to the IB subsystem. This series extends
the current 'representor' framework when the mlx5 driver is in
switchdev mode from being a netdev only construct to being a
netdev/IB dev construct. The IB dev is limited to raw Eth queue
pairs only, but by having an IB dev of this type attached to the
representor for a switchdev port, it enables DPDK to work on the
switchdev device.
* All net related, but needed as infrastructure for the rdma
driver
- Updates for the hns, i40iw, bnxt_re, cxgb3, cxgb4, hns drivers
- SRP performance updates
- IB uverbs write path cleanup patch series from Leon
- Add RDMA_CM support to ib_srpt. This is disabled by default. Users
need to set the port for ib_srpt to listen on in configfs in order
for it to be enabled
(/sys/kernel/config/target/srpt/discovery_auth/rdma_cm_port)
- TSO and Scatter FCS support in mlx4
- Refactor of modify_qp routine to resolve problems seen while
working on new code that is forthcoming
- More refactoring and updates of RDMA CM for containers support from
Parav
- mlx5 'fine grained packet pacing', 'ipsec offload' and 'device
memory' user API features
- Infrastructure updates for the new IOCTL interface, based on
increased usage
- ABI compatibility bug fixes to fully support 32 bit userspace on 64
bit kernel as was originally intended. See the commit messages for
extensive details

Pull SELinux updates from Paul Moore:
"A bigger than usual pull request for SELinux, 13 patches (lucky!)
along with a scary looking diffstat.
Although if you look a bit closer, excluding the usual minor
tweaks/fixes, there are really only two significant changes in this
pull request: the addition of proper SELinux access controls for SCTP
and the encapsulation of a lot of internal SELinux state.
The SCTP changes are the result of a multi-month effort (maybe even a
year or longer?) between the SELinux folks and the SCTP folks to add
proper SELinux controls. A special thanks go to Richard for seeing
this through and keeping the effort moving forward.
The state encapsulation work is a bit of janitorial work that came out
of some early work on SELinux namespacing. The question of namespacing
is still an open one, but I believe there is some real value in the
encapsulation work so we've split that out and are now sending that up
to you"

- DM core passthrough ioctl fix to retain reference to DM table, and
that table's block devices, while issuing the ioctl to one of those
block devices.
- DM core passthrough ioctl fix to _not_ override the fmode_t used to
issue the ioctl. Overriding by using the fmode_t that the block
device was originally open with during DM table load is a liability.
- Add DM core support for secure erase forwarding and update the DM
linear and DM striped targets to support them.
- A DM core 4.16 stable fix to allow abnormal IO (e.g. discard, write
same, write zeroes) for targets that make use of the non-splitting IO
variant (as is done for multipath or thinp when layered directly on
NVMe).
- Allow DM targets to return a payload in response to a DM message that
they are sent. This is useful for DM targets that would like to
provide statistics data in response to DM messages.
- Update DM bufio to support non-power-of-2 block sizes. Numerous other
related changes prepare the DM bufio code for this support.
- Fix DM crypt to use a bounded amount of memory across the entire
system. This is to avoid OOM that can otherwise occur in response to
certain pathological IO workloads (e.g. discarding a large DM crypt
device).
- Add a 'check_at_most_once' feature to the DM verity target to allow
verity to be used on mobile devices that have very limited resources.
- Fix the DM integrity target to fail early if a keyed algorithm (e.g.
HMAC) is to be used but the key isn't set.
- Add non-power-of-2 support to the DM unstripe target.
- Eliminate the use of a Variable Length Array in the DM stripe target.

Pull siginfo updates from Eric Biederman:
"The work on cleaning up and getting the bugs out of siginfo generation
was largely stalled this round. The progress that was made was the
definition of FPE_FLTUNK. Which is usable to fix many of the cases
where siginfo generation is erroneously generating SI_USER by setting
si_code to 0, that has recently been tagged as FPE_FIXME.
You already have the change by way of the arm64 tree as that
definition was pulled into the arm64 tree to allow fixing the problem
there.
What remains is the second round of fixing for what I thought was a
trivial change to the struct siginfo when put the union in _sigfault
where it belongs. Do to historical reasons 32bit m68k only ensures
that pointers are 2 byte aligned. So I have added a m68k test case
made of BUILD_BUG_ONs to verify I have this fix correct and possibly
catch problems, and I have computed the number of bytes of padding
needed for the _addr_bnd and _addr_pkey cases and just use an array of
characters that size.
For pure paranoia I have written the code so if there is an
architecture out there that does not perform any alignment of
structures it should still work.
With the removal of all of the stale arechitectures this cycle future
work on cleaning up struct siginfo should be much easier. Almost all
of the conflicting si_code definitions have been removed with the
removal of (blackfin, tile, and frv). Plus some of the most difficult
to test cases have simply been removed from the tree.
Which means that with a little luck copy_siginfo_to_user can become a
light weight wrapper around copy_to_user in the next cycle"

This patch adds the mlx5_ib driver implementation for the device
memory allocation API.
It implements the ib_device callbacks for allocation and deallocation
operations as well as a new mmap command support which allows mapping
an allocated device memory to a VMA.
The change also adds reporting of device memory maximum size and
alignment parameters reported in device capabilities.
The allocation/deallocation operations are using new firmware
commands to allocate MEMIC memory on the device.

Pull sound updates from Takashi Iwai:
"This became a large update. The changes are scattered widely, and the
majority of them are attributed to ASoC componentization. The gitk
output made me dizzy, but it's slightly better than London tube.
OK, below are some highlights:
- Continued hardening works in ALSA PCM core; most of the existing
syzkaller reports should have been covered.
- USB-audio got the initial USB Audio Class 3 support, as well as
UAC2 jack detection support and more DSD-device support.
- ASoC componentization: finally each individual driver was converted
to components framework, which is more future-proof for further
works. Most of conversations were systematic.
- Lots of fixes for Intel Baytrail / Cherrytrail devices with Realtek
codecs, typically tablets and small PCs.
- Fixes / cleanups for Samsung Odroid systems
- Cleanups in Freescale SSI driver
- New ASoC drivers:
* AKM AK4458 and AK5558 codecs
* A few AMD based machine drivers
* Intel Kabylake machine drivers
* Maxim MAX9759 codec
* Motorola CPCAP codec
* Socionext Uniphier SoCs

Adding new ioctl method for the MR object - REG_DM_MR.
This command can be used by users to register an allocated
device memory buffer as an MR and receive lkey and rkey
to be used within work requests.
It is added as a new method under the MR object and using a new
ib_device callback - reg_dm_mr.
The command creates a standard ib_mr object which represents the
registered memory.

This change adds uverbs support for allocation/freeing
of device memory commands.
A new uverbs object is defined of type idr to represent
and track the new resource type allocation per context.
The API requires provider driver to implement 2 new ib_device
callbacks - one for allocation and one for deallocation which
return and accept (respectively) the ib_dm object which represents
the allocated memory on the device.
The support is added via the ioctl command infrastructure
only.

Binding a flow_action to flow steering rule requires using a new
specification. Therefore, adding such an IB_FLOW_SPEC_ACTION_HANDLE flow
specification.
Flow steering rules could use flow_action(s) and as of that we need to
avoid deleting flow_action(s) as long as they're being used.
Moreover, when the attached rules are deleted, action_handle reference
count should be decremented. Introducing a new mechanism of flow
resources to keep track on the attached action_handle(s). Later on, this
mechanism should be extended to other attached flow steering resources
like flow counters.

A verbs application may receive and transmits packets using a data
path pipeline. Sometimes, the first stage in the receive pipeline or
the last stage in the transmit pipeline involves transforming a
packet, either in order to make it easier for later stages to process
it or to prepare it for transmission over the wire. Such transformation
could be stripping/encapsulating the packet (i.e. vxlan),
decrypting/encrypting it (i.e. ipsec), altering headers, doing some
complex FPGA changes, etc.
Some hardware could do such transformations without software data path
intervention at all. The flow steering API supports steering a
packet (either to a QP or dropping it) and some simple packet
immutable actions (i.e. tagging a packet). Complex actions, that may
change the packet, could bloat the flow steering API extensively.
Sometimes the same action should be applied to several flows.
In this case, it's easier to bind several flows to the same action and
modify it than change all matching flows.
Introducing a new flow_action object that abstracts any packet
transformation (out of a standard and well defined set of actions).
This flow_action object could be tied to a flow steering rule via a
new specification.
Currently, we support esp flow_action, which encrypts or decrypts a
packet according to the given parameters. However, we present a
flexible schema that could be used to other transformation actions tied
to flow rules.

Methods sometimes need to get one attribute out of a group of
pre-defined attributes. This is an enum-like behavior. Since
this is a common requirement, we add a new ENUM attribute to the
generic uverbs ioctl() layer. This attribute is embedded in methods,
like any other attributes we currently have. ENUM attributes point to
an array of standard UVERBS_ATTR_PTR_IN. The user-space encodes the
enum's attribute id in the id field and the internal PTR_IN attr id in
the enum_data.elem_id field. This ENUM attribute could be shared by
several attributes and it can get UVERBS_ATTR_SPEC_F_MANDATORY flag,
stating this attribute must be supported by the kernel, like any other
attribute.

Commit 519049afead ("dm: use blkdev_get rather than bdgrab when issuing
pass-through ioctl") inadvertantly introduced a regression relative to
users of device cgroups that issue ioctls (e.g. libvirt). Using
blkdev_get() in DM's passthrough ioctl support implicitly introduced a
cgroup permissions check that would fail unless care were taken to add
all devices in the IO stack to the device cgroup. E.g. rather than just
adding the top-level DM multipath device to the cgroup all the
underlying devices would need to be allowed.
Fix this, to no longer require allowing all underlying devices, by
simply holding the live DM table (which includes the table's original
blkdev_get() reference on the blockdevice that the ioctl will be issued
to) for the duration of the ioctl.
Also, bump the DM ioctl version so a user can know that their device
cgroup allow workaround is no longer needed.

NL80211_CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH, from Srinivas Dasari.
2) A lot of work on network namespace setup/teardown from Kirill Tkhai.
Setup and cleanup of namespaces now all run asynchronously and thus
performance is significantly increased.
3) Add rx/tx timestamping support to mv88e6xxx driver, from Brandon
Streiff.
4) Support zerocopy on RDS sockets, from Sowmini Varadhan.
5) Use denser instruction encoding in x86 eBPF JIT, from Daniel
Borkmann.
6) Support hw offload of vlan filtering in mvpp2 dreiver, from Maxime
Chevallier.
7) Support grafting of child qdiscs in mlxsw driver, from Nogah
Frankel.
8) Add packet forwarding tests to selftests, from Ido Schimmel.
9) Deal with sub-optimal GSO packets better in BBR congestion control,
from Eric Dumazet.
10) Support 5-tuple hashing in ipv6 multipath routing, from David Ahern.
11) Add path MTU tests to selftests, from Stefano Brivio.
12) Various bits of IPSEC offloading support for mlx5, from Aviad
Yehezkel, Yossi Kuperman, and Saeed Mahameed.
13) Support RSS spreading on ntuple filters in SFC driver, from Edward
Cree.
14) Lots of sockmap work from John Fastabend. Applications can use eBPF
to filter sendmsg and sendpage operations.
15) In-kernel receive TLS support, from Dave Watson.
16) Add XDP support to ixgbevf, this is significant because it should
allow optimized XDP usage in various cloud environments. From Tony
Nguyen.
17) Add new Intel E800 series "ice" ethernet driver, from Anirudh
Venkataramanan et al.
18) IP fragmentation match offload support in nfp driver, from Pieter
Jansen van Vuuren.
19) Support XDP redirect in i40e driver, from Björn Töpel.
20) Add BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT program type for accessing the arguments of
tracepoints in their raw form, from Alexei Starovoitov.
21) Lots of striding RQ improvements to mlx5 driver with many
performance improvements, from Tariq Toukan.
22) Use rhashtable for inet frag reassembly, from Eric Dumazet.

This structure is pushed down the ex and the non-ex path, so it needs to be
aligned to 8 bytes to go through ex without implicit padding.
Old user space will provide 4 bytes of resp on !ex and 8 bytes on ex, so
take the approach of just copying the minimum length.
New user space will consistently provide 8 bytes in both cases.

Pull IPMI updates from Corey Minyard:
"Mostly small changes, as usual.
This does add an IPMI BMC server-side driver, to allow a Linux system
to act as an IPMI controller. That's the biggest change, but it is
just a new driver that is fairly narrow in use.
The other largish change is removing ACPI SPMI probe support, which
should have never really been there in the beginning"
